Happy fifth birthday, Little Mix! Where has the time gone?!

It's five years since Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall took the pop scene by storm - so why not celebrate by looking back at their best bits.

In the video above, you can follow the girls on tour across the world and back - and have a chuckle at some genuinely charming behind-the-scenes bloopers.

Although, strangely missing from their birthday highlight reel was this little gem:

The ladies were put together for The X Factor all the way back in 2011. It's been full steam ahead ever since.

Little Mix are still riding high off the success off Get Weird a year after its debut - thanks to their hits 'Black Magic', 'Love Me Like You' and the uber-sassy 'Hair' - and show absolutely no signs of slowing down any time soon.

So, wish the girls a happy birthday - and check out five times they absolutely aced it.
