'Trying to kill me?': Little Mix's Perrie Edwards sparks Instagram meltdown by flashing major skin

Not afraid of flaunting her killer body on social media, English singer Perrie Edwards took to Instagram to share a smouldering hot picture showing her in nothing but a black jumper. And looks like, fans of the Little Mix star couldn't be more thrilled about her thoughtful upload from "backstage".

Edwards – who is currently the middle of her Australian tour – shared the saucy snap on Instagram showing her perched on top of some music equipment.

Adding to the sex appeal, the 24-year-old songstress struck a sexy pose with her arms crossed and legs apart while she seemed to give a miss to her pants.

"Backstage," the Shout Out To My Ex hitmaker captioned the cheeky shot. Edwards lets her long locks loose in the image as she seductively gazed into the lenses.

Unsurprisingly, the black and white picture has become an instant hit with Edwards' six million plus followers, who bombarded her comments section with gushing messages.

Overwhelmed with the songstress' charm, a fan commented, "Are you trying to kill me??" While others couldn't seem to take their eyes off the saucy snap and called her, "stunner," and the "queen".

"The most gorgeous and powerful woman in the world!" another admirer wrote, while a second added, "My heart can't cope up with your overload gorgeousness. (sic)"

Amid the sea of admiring comments, though, many noted that the picture showed striking similarities between the Edwards and another British heartthrob – Adele.

"For a second I thought she's Adele," commented one user, as another seemed to agree, writing, "I thought she is Adele."

Edwards and the rest of her girl band – Jesy Nelson, Jade Thrilwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock – will be touring down under until the end of July, which means more time apart for the singer from her footballer boyfriend Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
