Perrie Edwards hasn't drunk alcohol for five years.
The 22-year-old singer - who is engaged to One Direction hunk Zayn Malik - admits she hasn't touched a drop of booze for half a decade because she hates the side effects it brings with it.
She said: "I haven't drunk for five years. I used to drink when I was about 15 with my friends at house parties and I'd have a little glass of wine and be totally mortal. I hate that feeling of being drunk, I hate not being in control. It petrifies me."
However, the Little Mix star insists she doesn't need to have alcohol to have a good time at a party, and prefers to be sober because she can look out for her band mates, Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, when the guzzle down a few too many.
She explained to The Sun newspaper's Fabulous magazine: "I can't drive, but I am like the mother, so when the girls drink, I watch out for them. I'm not a bore, I can dance all night if there's good music - I'll be the first one there and the last one to leave."

Julia Roberts reportedly didn't attend her late half-sister's memorial service yesterday (08.03.14).
The 46-year-old star had a "complex" relationship with Nancy Motes, who died from an apparent drug overdose last month, and was no where to be seen at the ceremony held for her this weekend.
However, 'Glee' star Jane Lynch and other co-workers were among the mourners at the service for Nancy, who was a production assistant on the Fox show, according to the MailOnline.
Nancy reportedly resented Julia for her fame and success, and left a "ranting" note prior to her death allegedly claiming the actress had driven her to suicide.
Nancy's fiancé John Dilbeck, said: "Nancy was proud of Julia but she had severe abandonment issues.
"She had a knee operation as a teen and piled on weight because she couldn't exercise. While her sister was the 'Pretty Woman', Nancy was an overweight, insecure teenager.
"Nancy was a tortured soul. She grew up in the shadow of a superstar as a sister and Julia's fame cast a cloud over her life.
"Nancy adored Julia but she became increasingly resentful of the way Julia behaved towards her. In Nancy's mind Julia was a bully."
It was previously reported the 'August: Osage County' star tried to make Nancy go to rehab to seek help for her addiction to drugs a few months prior to her death, but she "backed out" shortly before she was due to enter the facility.
A source said last month: "Julia is taking the death very hard. It's extremely difficult for her because it didn't have to happen."

Debbie Harry doesn't think the Internet will remain popular.
The 68-year-old Blondie frontwoman is predicting a "backlash" against modern technology and she finds the world wide web a huge "waste of time".
She said: "I think that there will be some kind of Luddite backlash. People in general will just all of a sudden unhook themselves. It's such a waste of time."
Debbie admits she dislikes the internet because she tries so hard to maintain her privacy and thinks the online world is full of fame-seekers.
She said to NME magazine: "I'm really only concerned with letting people have a certain amount of me - not all of me. I've always fought very hard for a certain amount of anonymity and privacy. I'm very selective and it's very minimal for me.
"People are looking for public notice without actually being in showbiz. Everyone thinks they're in showbiz online.
"If I choose to send something out, or write something to a friend, that's one thing, but I'm not looking for that kind of attention, I have another kind."

Helen Flanagan is wanted for 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The former 'Coronation Street' beauty is being targeted by BBC bosses as they try to secure her talents for the upcoming series in an effort to bring "more glamour" to the show.
Speaking to The Sun on Sunday newspaper, a source said: "'Strictly' needs some glamour for the next series and Helen has it by the bucketful.
"She was a huge success on 'I'm a Celebrity' and there is no doubt that she will pull in lots of viewers if the BBC do manage to get her signed up.
"There are talks going on at the moment and fees are being discussed."
As well as her time in the jungle, the 23-year-old star also appeared on 'Celebrity Wedding Planner' and 'Celebrity Super Spa', and show bosses think she could continue a great run on reality TV.
The insider added: "Helen has enjoyed all the reality shows she's appeared in, and always gets a really good response from audiences. She is a big fan of 'Strictly' and this could be a fantastic opportunity."

Hayley Tamaddon could collapse during the 'Dancing On Ice' final tonight (09.03.14).
The 'Coronation Street' actress has been run ragged preparing for the showdown this evening and she is worried she might be pushing herself too far as she does all she can to become the show's last-ever champion.
Speaking to the Daily Star Sunday newspaper, she said: "I feel like I'm running on fumes. I can't even string two words together because I'm that tired.
"The other morning I was so tired I felt like I could pass out. That's how it feels like sometimes."
The soap star - who joins Ray Quinn and Beth Tweddle in the final - has been commuting between London and Manchester to balance the figure skating contest with her day job, and bosses want her to take it easy to ensure she doesn't faint due to exhaustion.
She admitted: "Both schedules are full-on. The 'Dancing On Ice' timetable is so busy and in between sessions I am driven back to Manchester for filming.
"Last weekend after 'Dancing On Ice' I had two hours' sleep and then drove to Manchester at 3am to make sure I was there for filming. The next night I got about four hours. It's difficult."

Ricky Gervais felt like he'd won a competition when he was cast in the 'Muppets Most Wanted'.
The 52-year-old comedian - who has filmed two segments on Sesame Street's 40th season - was thrilled when he learned he had a lead role as evil frog Constantine's sidekick, Dominic Badguy, in the sequel to 2011's 'The Muppets'.
He said: "[It was less of a career move] more like winning a competition. Muppet Christmas Carol is one of my favourite films, full stop.
"You know there's only one way you can improve on one of the greatest stories ever told, and that's stick some Muppets in."
Gervais insists his work on the animated adventure isn't too different from what he's used to filming.
He added to EMPIRE magazine: "It's not dissimilar to what I usually do. There's a lot of deconstructed comedy in the 'Muppets', which I totally get. It reminds me of 'Extras' or 'Life's Too Short'."
The film directed by James Bobin also features fan favourites including Miss Piggy and cameos a number of A-Listers including Celine Dion, Lady Gaga, Salma Hayek and Usher.

James Arthur has blasted his debut album.
The 'You're Nobody' hitmaker was less than impressed with his self-titled record, insisting he wasn't given enough freedom artistically and bosses behind the LP were more motivated by "money".
Speaking on Polish TV show 'Interia' he claimed: "I have people telling me what I can and can't do, what music I can and can't make. People who aren't artists don't think about creativity and art, they think about money.
"When you find fame or you get signed to a record label, it's not what you imagined - because you imagined they would have 100 per cent trust or faith in you as an artist. Unfortunately that's not really the case - it's what sells."
The singer found success after winning TV talent show 'The X Factor' in 2012, but he has attacked Simon Cowell's programme for producing "puppets" and "karaoke singers".
He said: "Having watched 'X Factor' over the years, they just haven't got it right. The male winners haven't been believable. They look like puppets, they sound like puppets.
"I happen to agree with a lot of people who say it's like karaoke. I've done it myself watching the show over the years and saying, 'I've seen better down my local pub'.
"Unfortunately, there's a f**k-load of karaoke singers in the world and all they can do is make them look like good karaoke singers."

Nicole Scherzinger thinks 'shoulders are sexier than cleavage'.
The 35-year-old singer prefers to wear outfits which are "open across the top", and while she admitted to wearing boob-boosting bras, she insisted "everybody" can achieved a similar look.
She told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper's TV Extra magazine: "You see me wearing dresses that are open across the top. That area shows grace because it's dainty, but it also shows strength.
"I think shoulders are sexier than cleavage. Everybody can have cleavage with the bras we have today. I do use those bras - absolutely. They can give you confidence."
The former Pussycat Doll believes in herself by "staying in shape", but explained it is all in her mind.
She added: "Staying in shape is where I get my power from. It keeps my temple strong. Physically it helps because you feel more confident in your clothes and how you hold yourself, but it's a mental for me.
"If I don't work out I actually look more slender as I don't have as much definition ... Once you embrace your size and your style - and you wear clothes that make you feel confident and take care of yourself from within - you will look and feel better on the outside."

Amy Winehouse wanted to raise Blake Fielder-Civil's baby.
The late singer was reportedly so keen to have children that she sent texts claiming she wanted to be involved in her ex-husband's life, according to his mother Georgette Civil.
She told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Amy said, 'We'll take the baby and raise him as our own'.
"Blake sent texts back saying it was a great idea. I couldn't believe what I was reading - they both lived in a dream world."
She also revealed how the 'Back To Black' singer - who died from accidentally alcohol pointing in July 2011 - was constantly planning "for her future" with her ex-husband, and even tried to visit him the in jail day before she passed away.
Georgette said: "Amy had so many plans for her future with Blake. He was in jail and they were divorced but she wrote to him and still longed for them to have a baby.
"The day before she died she had phoned the prison, trying to arrange a visit."
Despite the couple's problems, Georgette "couldn't accept" that her son was suffering, and it strained her own relationship with his father Giles.
She admitted: "I felt so guilty for Blake's problems that I couldn't accept they were so bad.
"I made excuse after excuse until Giles had enough. Still I couldn't accept Blake had done anything wrong."

Jessica Alba felt like an "old fogie" next to One Direction.
The 'Sin City' actress - who has daughters Honor, five, and Haven, two, with husband Cash Warren - had no idea who the British group were when she first met them a few years ago, despite them topping the charts around the world.
She said: "I didn't know who they were, but a couple of years ago at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards they asked me to take a picture with them.
"They were these cute young boys with fashiony hair cuts. I was like, 'Oh my God, are you guys in a band?' They looked at me like I was an alien!
"I was the only person on the planet who didn't know who they were. I was talking to Snoop Dogg at the time, so we were like old fogies compared to these guys."
The 'Escape From Planet Earth' star admits her daughters are not fans of the band yet but thinks it is only a matter of time.
Asked if Honor likes One Direction, she said: "Not really, not yet. I'm sure it's coming."
Jessica is unsure if she and Cash will ever have any more children, but insists they definitely won't be in the near future.
Discussing if she wants more children, she told Britain's OK! magazine: "I don't know, I'm 32 so I don't know if the shop is closed. I'm sure I won't be trying any time soon."

Adele is keeping James Bond bosses in the dark over whether she'll record the next theme song.
The global superstar recorded the title track for 2012 movie 'Skyfall', and while many behind the scenes of the upcoming 24th film in the British spy saga are keen for her to sing the next song, she's refusing to commit just yet.
An insider at studio MGM told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "The chiefs here have made their feelings known to Adele that they want her back for the next film.
"Daniel has also made it clear he loved Adele and wants her back but she has not responded, which is making them sweat."
If Adele accepted the offer, she would become the first singer to record more than one Bond theme since Shirley Bassey, who performed 'Goldfinger', 'Diamonds Are Forever' and 'Moonraker'.
She could have competition though, with British rockers Biffy Clyro throwing their name in the hat and admitting they would "love" to write a track for one of 007's adventures.
Frontman Simon Neil recently said: "Biffy for Bond, yes - I will follow you to the ends of the earth, sir. I'd love that.
"I think we've got a couple of songs in our back catalogue that could have suited but that is most songwriters' dream, isn't it, to write for Bond?
"You get given the key it has to be in, I believe, and certain motifs ... It's such a dramatic theme that I think it would really suit us."

Gerard Butler is still waiting for "the one".
The 'Olympus Has Fallen' actor admitted he is "sadly" single, explaining while he has "met a lot of princesses", he hasn't found someone he wants to spend the rest of his life with yet.
Speaking to the Mail on Sunday newspaper, he said: "I have not met the one princess yet.
"That doesn't mean I have not met a lot of princesses along the way, but not the one and only yet.
"Or maybe I have and she might come back into my life at some point. You should never rule out anything. But am I seeing the one now? The answer, sadly, is no."
The 44-year-old star also admitted he would love to have children in the future, but conceded building a long-term relationship can be difficult in the acting industry.
He added: "I do want kids. For now I have four nieces. I often wonder what it would be like to share a movie with my kids.
"It does make me think ... It's harder to be in a relationship in this industry. It's partly my own fault, and partly the nature of the beast.
"It's hard when you are leaving all the time. I'm not in Australia. Who wants to put up with that? But who says life has to be just one relationship? Maybe it's meant to have many short relationships?"
