Perrie Edwards, the beloved pop superstar, may be a household name to most people, but her own little boy, Axel, seems to be a bit confused about what his mommy does for a living. Despite having performed in front of thousands at Capital's Jingle Bell Ball and even doing an intimate acoustic gig backstage for selected superfans, her three-year-old son still has no clue about her profession. Perrie welcomed Axel in August of 2021 with her partner, the football star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. And it seems like Axel is becoming quite the star himself, as he appeared alongside his mom in her latest music video for the song "Christmas Magic," which features home footage-style clips.
In a recent interview with Metro, Perrie revealed that when Axel was asked at nursery what his parents do, he confidently declared that his mom was "a dancer or something." Perrie couldn't help but laugh and admit that her son had it all wrong. But she's not too bothered by it and is just happy to have Axel's support. She even tried to explain to him that she's a singer, but he doesn't quite understand it yet. However, he does remember that his daddy is a footballer.
Despite Axel's confusion about her profession, Perrie is thrilled that he loves music and can see him following in her footsteps. She shared that Axel loves singing and even sings himself to sleep, reminding her of her own childhood. She's supportive of whatever he chooses to do but loves that he shares her passion for music.
As for her own career, Perrie is excited to perform at the Jingle Bell Ball. She even did an intimate performance backstage in the Barclaycard Out of the Blue set, which included her two biggest hits and "Christmas Magic" in an acoustic set for a small number of fans and competition winners. She shared that she loves intimate performances and that this will be her first proper acoustic set. Later in the evening, she'll also have a big show, so she feels like she's getting the best of both worlds in one day.
When Little Mix announced their hiatus, Perrie was prepared to start from scratch as a solo artist. She didn't expect her fans to follow her, but she's grateful for their support. Her bandmates, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall, have also released solo tracks, and Perrie notes that her music has a bit of a rock edge, which she wants to explore further. This was not as prominent in Little Mix's music. However, her latest track, "Christmas Magic," is a festive, timeless song that debuted in the UK top 20.
Perrie doesn't believe that a number one single defines an artist's success or popularity, especially with the impact of streaming on the music industry. She doesn't pay too much attention to the charts and just wants her fans to enjoy her music. She shared that her goal for this era is for her fans to find peace in her music and hopes that they will love it as much as she does. And as for the Christmas number one, she's leaving that in the hands of her fans and the industry.
