Perrie Edwards is about to sign a record deal with Beyonce and Harry Styles’ record label Columbia Records as she begins her solo career
Perrie Edwards is reportedly about to sign a record deal with Columbia Records.
The Little Mix singer, 29, is in advanced talks with the label, meaning fans are getting closer to the solo material she’s been working on since her girl group went on hiatus.
A source told the Sun on Sunday newspaper’s ‘Bizarre’ column: “Perrie is super talented and label officials think she could be a global star.

“They are very keen to strike a deal soon and talks are ongoing. Perrie is brimming with ideas for solo material.’
Columbia Records is also home to music giants like Harry Styles and Beyoncé.
Perrie recently admitted that she really enjoys working on her solo music in the recording studio, describing it as “so much fun”.
She said: “Everything is going very well. “I just have so much fun experimenting with different sounds. It is very good.
“I’m so lucky, I’m working with such amazing people. “I’m really grateful. I want to make music I love.”

Songwriter Kamille, who has worked with Little Mix and been in the studio with Perrie, said last summer that the hitmaker’s new music will “blew everyone’s minds”.
She added: “Perrie will come into the dressing room and she will be so worried and insecure. Even when I was with her the other day with Steve Mac, she came into the dressing room and said, ‘I don’t know if I can do this.’
“I looked at her and I was like, ‘Are you serious? Your voice is undoubtedly one of the best voices I have ever heard.’ She is unbelievable.
Kamille added: “She doesn’t even know how good she is and that’s one of the most beautiful things about Perrie; she is so humble.
“It was so exciting to make music with her. I can’t wait for you to hear that everything is ready.
“As you know, there’s so much more to come from her.”
