Does anyone else get really inspired to craft and then end up with a mess and twenty half-finished projects? I was scrolling through TikTok and came across those hand crochet blankets that everyone's been obsessed with. "I can do that," I thought to myself, and while I was right, I was also very, very wrong. I ended up buying way too much chunky yarn and now have at least five different blankets going. Anyone have any tips on staying focused on just one project before swapping to the next? Or do I embrace the chaos and hope all of my blankets get completed at some point? Also, hi, I'm Brie and I think my middle name might be Chaos no matter how hard I try. @hfrpstarters

[pez-edwrdz]

as sad as it might sound, i know myself well enough to know that i suck at all things that might be even remotely crafty. i feel like ive heard that crocheting is not as easy as it seems! but at least you'll get five blankets out of it. i would just embrace it, they'll get done when they get done.

I gotta ask; what is the weirdest fan interaction you've ever had? I had a girl once ask me for a selfie and as she leaned in for the photo she proceeded to lick from my neck to my cheek and then just walked away. I had no time to react. When my brain finally computed what had just happened I was torn between being weirded out and appalled. But also curious to how she built up the nerve to do something like that. Granted, most people who have asked for an autograph or picture have been nothing but respectful and kind. But she was the first one to do something so out of pocket. Now I slightly fear every time I lean in for a selfie that I'm gonna be met with unwanted wetness. I gotta know i'm not alone in this boat. I'm Tony, by the way!

[pez-edwrdz]

that's actually frightening! i wonder what the people she's showed the photo to thought about that. i haven't had anyone lick me, but i did have someone ask to try my shoes on once. the answer was no, of course but I guess I'll give credit that they were brave enough to ask. nice to meet you, I'm Perrie.

[bcwerjmie]

and why would i ever disagree? you are in fact my favorite member of little mix for a multitude of reasons. i am currently in atlanta shooting the final season of stranger things. do you think you could spare a couple weeks to come see an old friend?

[pez-edwrdz]

stranger things have happened! no pun intended. i havent ever been to atlanta, and i haven't seen you in ages so i can make that work.

[la-pinnock]

Honestly, don't pressure yourself too much girl ╾ you'll do amazing when it's your time to shine. And I'll be your number one fan girl at the front of the crowd as normal. Of course he's not getting sick of you, that kid loves you. But let's give him kids his own age to babble on at. @pez-edwrdz

[pez-edwrdz]

much easier said than done, you know that. as long as i can put out something that im happy with, that will have to be whats important. oh he loves me, no doubt about that, but he is right sick of me. im sure of it. he could use the distraction.

[lw-tomlinson-deactivated2024101]

How dare ya not stand out, and here I thought we were proper drinkin' buddies at this stage in life. How was the hangover the next day, did ya get your New Year's kiss? You stood corrected, the little bugger is eight — ever thought I'd have an eight year old? We'll come collect the gifts when we're both in LA next, yeah? Let you see the lad for a few hours. @pez-edwrdz

[pez-edwrdz]

how could we be proper drinkin' buddies if you didn't even come to find me for a drink?! the hangover was vicious. i deffo dont bounce back like i used to. no new years kiss this year. how about you? nope i can't believe that he's eight, its mad. sounds like a plan. i may be heading over to the states soon anyway so if you're there we'll work it out.

[joyousanya]

——- You know -- it's the same for me actually . i'm always looking forward to what the new year as to offer for me and my friends . it's kinda exciting really . oh , that doesn't sound like fun -- do you and the girls still hang ? how different is it being solo over a group ? i did some reading on her and also got into some of the mario games and i never really gamed as a kid so this was new for me .

[pez-edwrdz]

yeah, a new year is nice because it isn't necessarily full on change, but just enough of a refresh. recording contracts make the process especially stressful, but worth it in the end. we do! leigh and i are due to get the kiddies together soon. yeah i cant imagine having to prepare for something like that mostly because im so out of the loop when it comes to those things. but as long as it went well that's all that counts!

[wooyvung]

So finding out the news that my group and I are gonna be performing at Coachella is what I feel is the best news, that's always been a dream of mine, ever since I saw Black Pink perform there, will you be attending Coachella? Do you have any tips for me to be ready for when it comes around?? Also, where's a good place to get food, I need all the details. @hfrpstarters

[pez-edwrdz]

that's amazing news! congratulations, that's very exciting, coachella is huge! i actually haven't been to it, but i always here great things, i hope to be able to attend one of these years! i hope that you have a blast!

[harrstles]

that's it? easy. done. i've become the master of breathing exercises and keeping nerves at bay so you're in good hands here. throw me to the frontlines and i'll fight anyone that says something bad. did you at least have fun making it??

[pez-edwrdz]

breathing exercises, if only it were that easy! you've got your work cut out for you and you don't even know it yet. haz, i love you for offering that, but you're a teddy bear, we know that! i did have a lot of fun making it. when are you going to come and see me and axel?

[bcwerjmie]

how did you know i was going to pick you? it's like you can read my mind. it's wonderful to hear that you've made some waves with your own music, and it would be an honor to have a listen before the rest of the world has a chance to. when are you gonna make your way across the pond? maybe we can meet up sometime soon.

[pez-edwrdz]

i was sort of just hoping that if i said it, you wouldn't disagree, because that would've been mortifying. waves have not been made yet. its more of a lazy river type of situation right now. status quo. which side of the pond are you on these days?

[notorioustimlin]

You nailed it! Time becomes this elusive concept once kids enter the picture—it's like trying to catch a speeding train! And yes, superhero mode is always activated, even in the messiest of moments. Grace might have taken a temporary vacation, but we somehow find our way through the chaos with a mix of laughter and tears.

[pez-edwrdz]

even though i know that catching the train is impossible, it somehow doesn't stop me from trying. superhero mode is activated ESPECIALLY in the messiest of moments! it keeps us on our toes, but what's life without a little bit of chaos, right?

[la-pinnock]

You know, I do try. Oh, I understand those emotions so much. I know when you do release music, you're going to ace it. And I'm going to be your number one supporter. I jumped onto a flight to LA not long ago, when I'm back I'll check in and listen to these tracks. Also will bring the twins for an overdue sleepover, so get the beds ready. They miss their Auntie Pez. Just like their mummy does. @pez-edwrdz

[pez-edwrdz]

you always succeed. it's throwing me for a loop. i knew that i was going to be nervous about the whole process, but its next level nerves. anxiety is such a bitch. of course, let me know when you're around. you know my place is always open to you and the babies! axel will be thrilled, to have a diversion, i think he's getting sick of looking at me.

[lw-tomlinson-deactivated2024101]

Ms. Edwards. How is one? I saw your post on Instagram leadin' into New Year's. Thought I'd see you at the party to confront but didn't catch you. Don't tell me you missed a party? I wouldn't believe it. You ╾ the life and soul. Wouldn't be right. @pez-edwrdz

[pez-edwrdz]

i'm alright, how're you? hey now. i might always be late to a party, but i never miss one! it was just packed with people and i suppose i didn't stand out enough in the crowd did i? is my brain deceiving me, or has freddie just turned EIGHT?! how did you celebrate? i have gifts for him. you know i love birthdays.

[harrstles]

it has been a little over two weeks since you teased new music in an insta post and i swear it's all i've been thinking about since. this era of little mix girls dropping solo music? here for it. now, here's the question - what does a man have to do in order to get a little sneak peek of this music of yours? @pez-edwrdz

[pez-edwrdz]

but who's counting right? i can't have you counting! it's already nerve wracking enough as it is. the answer to your question is simple though. you simply have to prevent the impending nervous breakdown that i start to have whenever i think about releasing music on my own. can you handle that?

[mamma-mazz-hf]

Have you had one of those moments of real panic? Doing a live show, you would expect something to go wrong. What I wasn't expecting was for it to be when I have a small amount of time in the first place. I come of stage, and have to change out of a wedding dress, into a spandex outfit (which isn't easy) and ready to get back on stage, all in about a minute and a half, maybe slightly longer. This time, I am just pulling on said spandex outfit and hear a rip. Thankfully there is always a spare around and the behind the scenes crew weren't panicking at all. Me on the other hand, had to get out of the ripped on, get into the new one, and had only just got my boots on before getting back on stage. What a night.

@hfrpstarters

[pez-edwrdz]

i have had more moments of real panic than i can even count! especially during live shows. those quick changes are what nightmares are made of. changing out of spandex into more spandex should be considered a superpower. thank goodness for the amazing costume teams, they're angels! the most amazing part is the crowd has no idea of the chaos going on just inches away from the stage.

[notorioustimlin]

Anyone else used to think that time was passing by too slow? I blinked and somehow I'm in my 30s with two toddlers, wondering why there aren't enough hours in the day to get everything done. Now time can't slow down at all it seems. There are some moments I want to freeze forever, but others that I will happily let whirl by. One of those being the time that my youngest daughter threw up while her older sister dumped her breakfast on the floor. I think we all cried that day. @hfrpstarters

[pez-edwrdz]

for me, i feel like time has always flown by so quickly that i can hardly keep track, but there is no doubt that it goes at least twice as fast once you have a child. it seems like time isnt even real anymore! sounds messy but mums are superheroes so i'm sure you handled it with grace, even if there were tears involved.

[la-pinnock]

Two singles released, you would have thought I'd be on my way ╾ but also just having so much fun experimenting away from the Little Mix sound. Not getting away from the Little Mix sound or anything, fyi. So bloody terrifying, girl. But such a great feeling knowing it's authentically you. I'm currently in the studio myself, so if you are in London feel free to drop yourself in and share. You know I always got the time for you, Pez. @pez-edwrdz

[pez-edwrdz]

Two singles released is far passed being on your way! You’re already ahead of the game. I know it’s a bitter sweet sort of feeling. Terrifying and exhilarating all at the same time. If you’re around the next couple of days I’ll deffo stop in!

[famelowden]

Especially since they usually get maybe 5 minutes with each person when they're doing junkets. Like just spice it up a bit. One of my favourite interviews was when Smosh pranked Tom Hiddleston, and he was just the sweetest fella going, despite them doing all this weird shite. Love it.

[pez-edwrdz]

Exactly. I know they must have more interesting questions somewhere in the depths of their minds. At least I hope that they do, otherwise their lives must get awfully boring. I haven’t seen that, but it already sounds light years better than most! What would you ask someone if you were the one in the interviewers seat?
