00:00Oh, that I enjoy, and succeed, and enjoy.
00:09We're here at the National Lottery Big Bash.
00:11What are you doing here?
00:12What's the job?
00:13What are we doing tonight?
00:14I'm performing.
00:15I'm singing a song.
00:16My latest, well, before my Christmas song.
00:17You go your way, I'm performing.
00:18So, yeah, it's going to be fun.
00:19I'm excited.
00:20And you're performing a Christmas song as well?
00:21Is it your Christmas song?
00:22Are we doing a cover of a Christmas song?
00:23What are you doing?
00:24No, my Christmas song is called Christmas Magic.
00:25And, obviously, it's a New Year gig, so I thought, I can't do a Christmas song, so I
00:32best just do a different single.
00:33So that was why I picked that.
00:34Very nice.
00:35Can I ask a question?
00:36I, obviously, we've known you as Perrie Edwards, part of Little Mix for a long time.
00:42Are we just Perrie now?
00:44Are we dropping the Edwards?
00:45Yeah.
00:46Talk me through the rebrand.
00:47I do love it.
00:48Yeah.
00:49How are we feeling about dropping the Edwards?
00:50What I was thinking?
00:51Well, I was thinking, I love my name now.
00:54I've grown to love it.
00:55I used to hate it.
00:56Now, I love it.
00:57Yeah.
00:58Because it was unusual growing up.
00:59So I used to get picked on for it.
01:00But now, I love it.
01:01And also, I'm soon to be Oxford Chamberlain.
01:04So I thought, it might be a bit much, going Perrie Edwards, Perrie Oxford Chamberlain.
01:09It's a bit much, isn't it?
01:10I love it.
01:11Perrie Louise Edwards Oxford Chamberlain.
01:12Right?
01:13Yeah.
01:14It's a bit much.
01:15You can make a nice acronym out of that.
01:16Yeah.
01:17But I think I'm going to drop the Edwards and just be Perrie.
01:18I love that so much.
01:21How is Alex getting on out?
01:22Is he in Turkey still?
01:23Yeah.
01:24He's in Beşiktaş.
01:25Is it?
01:26Yeah.
01:27For me, there is.
01:28Yes.
01:29But it's very hard to juggle.
01:30But I feel like we're making it work.
01:31Well, congratulations on that.
01:32How's the little one?
01:33Axel.
01:34Experiencing Turkey.
01:35Is he enjoying flying out there?
01:36Is he an international baby now?
01:37Yeah.
01:38He just loves an adventure.
01:39He loves it.
01:40And when he's sat still for a while, he's like, can we go on an airplane soon?
01:41And I'm like, why did you miss it?
01:42He loves flying.
01:43He loves traveling.
01:44So that works out handy for me.
01:45Because it just makes my life easier that he actually enjoys it.
01:46We've released a lot of new music.
01:47We've released a lot of new songs.
01:48We've released a lot of new songs.
01:49Are we going to be continuing the same in 25, or is this the year where we start touring
01:59and showing the world what we have?
02:00Oh, gosh.
02:01I think definitely more music coming.
02:02Hopefully my album coming.
02:03Well, it will be.
02:04And then more performances, more live shows.
02:05Just all of the good stuff, I hope.
02:06What stage are we at at the moment with the album?
02:07Is it a stage where we're announcing a title?
02:08Are we saying anything about it?
02:09Or is it hush-hush?
