She also shared a snap of her backstage – where Little Mix were supporting One Direction at the Apple Music Festival – revealing her trim figure, and fans commented on how “beautiful” she looked.

Fans are extremely excited about the possibility of One Direction and Little Mix sharing the same stage.

To celebrate Carrie’s big return to the United Kingdom for the first time since 2013, we’re taking a trip down memory lane and looking back at some of our favourite ever performances from the country superstar.

Little Mix, who won the ITV talent show in 2011, have also had success on both sides of the Atlantic. Apple has continually noted that one of its goals is to “leave the world better than they found it”, which Jackson echoes in her tweet highlighting the renovation. Perrie – who was reportedly dumped by ex-1D heartthrob Zayn in August this yr – showcased her slender figure in a white, cut-out dress, which she took to INSTAGRAM to announce earlier within the evening.The racy very sexy frock boasted a bandeau top half & a fringed skirt, which was connected with studded straps.

The Apple Music Festival offered fans the opportunity to win free tickets to watch the gigs, but for those who missed out the show will also be live streamed online.

Sabourin said: “I think tonight was Harry Styling”.

As they left the stage, Payne said: “Thank you so much for having us”.

South Shields singers Perrie Edwards and Jade Thirlwall and bandmates Jesy Nelson and Leigh-Anne Pinnock launched into their set at Camden Roundhouse with the rousing Salute before treating their audience to hits like Move, Change Your Life and Wings. This year One Direction, Pharrell Williams, Disclosure, Florence + The Machine Take That, The Weeknd, and The Chemical Brothers are playing.
