Little Mix took to the stage in Brazil as a trio after member Perrie Edwards was forced to miss the show due to illness.

Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall performed in Sao Paulo on Sunday and put on one hell of a show.

The girls were as fierce as always, seamlessly pulling off the dance routines as a three.

Leigh-Anne was bringing 90s style to the stage in blue and orange wide leg baggy trousers and a crop top, with Jesy, with long grey hair, looking fierce in a matching bodysuit and thigh-high boots.

Jade rocked a white crop top and a short blue and orange pleated shirt and trainers.

Fans were treated to some of their best loved hits at the all female GRLS! Festival, with Kylie Minogue and Tierra Whack also on the bill.

Perrie admitted she was heartbroken to have to miss the show in a heartfelt note written to fans.

‘Hey everyone, I’m so sorry to announce that I am unable to travel and perform in Brazil with the rest of the girls on Sunday due to being unwell,’ she wrote.

‘To all the fans that are attending the show, I’m heartbroken I can’t be there with you, but I know the girls will absolutely smash their performance and give you everything in my absence. Lots of love Perrie x’.

Little Mix are set to return to the UK in June to complete the next leg of their tour.

Not only that, they will be looking for the next girl, boy or mixed-sex band in their TV show The Search, which will see hopeful artists perform live, and work together with songwriters, producers and stylists.
