The 22-year-old singer's right hand and arm are covered in painful blisters after Perrie's boiler blew up, causing serious injury.

Posting a message on her band Little Mix's Twitter page, Perrie wrote: "So today I had an accident... and by accident I mean I accidentally set myself on fire. The pilot light on my boiler blew up and it set my arm/hand on fire. Not a pleasant experience.

"I'm in pain, full of blisters, there's no one hair left on my hand or arm, and it burned the sleeve of my favourite jumper. Nightmare. A little advice from me... STAY AWAY FROM FIRE! #StaySafeKids (sic)."

This is just the latest blow for Perrie after her former fiance Zayn Malik blasted her "lies" in his new single 'It's You'.

The 23-year-old former One Direction crooner's second solo offering appears to hit out at Perrie - who he reportedly dumped via text in August after four years of dating - as it describes the messy breakdown of a relationship but lays the blame firmly at the girl's door.

The lyrics go: "Her own reason...for talking to me. She don't, she don't, she don't...give a f**k about what I need, and I can't tell you why, because my brain can't equate it.

"Tell me your lies because I just can't face it"

The scathing lines go on to insist that "silence" shouldn't be "mistaken" for being in the wrong.

Zayn continues: "I won't, I won't, I won't! Cover the scar, I'll let it be, So my silence, So my silence won't be mistaken for believing, am I wrong for wanting us to make it?

"Could it be that it's a lesson? That I never had to learn I looked at it like a blessing, And now it's just a curse, I don't know why, I don't know why, You, it's you."
