Perrie matched her outfit by wearing a slick of light pink lipstick and matching eyeshadow that made her blue eyes pop.
Joking about the influences with her fans, she wrote in the caption: ‘My two personalities and some hair inspo – On the Jonathan Ross show tonight.’
While on the show, Little Mix admit they ‘didn’t expect being in a girlband to be so hard’ as they reflect on their career they admit ‘people don’t see what goes on behind the scenes.’
It comes amid reports that the band are secretly making plans to pursue solo careers in 2021, after Jesy, 29, said last week time off from the group was ‘needed.’

As the band watches back a clip from their time on The X Factor in 2011, Leigh-Anne says being in a band was everything they’d hoped for.
Perrie then adds: ‘I don’t think we expected it to be this hard. When you’re young and you think of being a popstar, you think, ”Oh I want everyone to love me and ask for my autograph…” then you get thrown into it and you’re like, ”Holy s*** balls it’s a lot”.
‘We don’t rest, we don’t sleep. But we love success so we’re willing to work for it and it’s been an amazing 10 years!’
Leigh-Anne continues: ‘People don’t see how hard it is, the things that go on behind the scenes. People don’t understand the pressure.

Absent: On Tuesday a representative for Little Mix confirmed Jesy was taking an ‘extended break’ from the band due to ‘private medical reasons’
‘People sometimes see popstars and think, ‘Oh it is glam and glitz’, but really it’s hard.’
But Jade says they’ve received huge amounts of support from their fans, adding: ‘We’ve got each other, that’s the beauty of being in a band. We just stay grounded with our friends and family.
‘When we get time off we go straight home and see the family. Our mams would be the first to tell us off if we were getting a bit big-headed.’
It comes after Jesy admitted she ‘needed time off’ from the band just one week before announcing she was taking ‘an extended break.’

In an interview with the Mail On Sunday’s YOU magazine published on November 8, Jesy told how the band ‘needed’ some time apart because they are together all day, every day.
She said: ‘It was needed. We’re never not with each other and we’re always busy. Our mornings start early, we finish really late.’
It comes following reports on Wednesday that Little Mix are reportedly planning to pursue a solo career, following news of Jesy’s ‘extended break.’
Perrie, Leigh-Anne and Jade are set to launching solo careers next year at the end of their existing record deal, it has been claimed.

They are said to have been secretly meeting with industry bosses as well as new managers and agents while Jesy also plans to kick start a solo career when she is feeling better.
The Sun reported that Perrie and Jade are both looking at solo music projects while Leigh-Anne is eyeing up TV opportunities.

The source added that the group still have a tour to complete next April and will see it through, even if it is delayed due to COVID-19.
The insider also said the ladies are trying to emulate Take That, where each member drifts out to work on their own projects but come back together at different times.
They also claimed there is no ‘bad blood’ between the group and they are all supportive of each other’s wishes to go solo.
MailOnline contacted representatives for Little Mix for comment at the time.

They were signed to Simon Cowell’s record label Syco until November 2018 when they switched to rival label RCA.
