"Little Me" is a song by British girl group Little Mix. It was released as the second single from their second studio album, Salute (2013). It was co-written by the group with TMS and Iain James, and produced by TMS. The song peaked at number 14 on the UK Singles Chart. It also samples part of Gabriel Fauré's Pavane.

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review, calling it "effortless and uplifting" and awarding it four out of five stars. In another four-star review, Renowned for Sound's Melissa Redman complimented the song's "exceptional vocals", "perfect harmonies" and "mature lyrics".

Isaac Mace-Tessler of Pop Scoop gave the song a very positive review, saying "Little Me has a strong message of inspiration and liberation, all about the girls’ present selves telling their younger, little selves not to worry and to “speak up, shout out, be a bit prouder” and believe that they are already "beautiful, wonderful". The track thus follows and holds its own in the grand tradition of R&B empowerment ballads such as Sugababes' "Ugly", Destiny's Child's "Survivor" and Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful". The song's music video further underlines its heartfelt meaning: shot in earnest B&W, the girls emotively sing in an abandoned warehouse, interspersed with girls and women talking about their hopes, dreams and insecurities".

In an interview with FrontRowLiveEnt.com, regarding the official music video, Jesy Nelson said: "We've never really done a video like this before. This is very heartfelt and meaningful. It's very sincere."

The video premiered on YouTube on 18 December 2013. It features Little Mix in an abandoned Chapel. It also features various actors telling their stories and what they have overcome. The video is also in black and white, making Little Mix's first music video to be released in that format.
