Fifth Harmony have been a fixture in the headlines and on social media today following the shock departure of member Camila Cabello.
And, if folk felt there split would be handled in a PC manner, they’re greatly mistaken.
The first shot was thrown in the group’s announcement, which stressed that they were informed of Cabello’s decision by way of her “representatives.” Ouch.
Camila clapped back claiming that that was not true and that her ex bandmates were well aware of her reasons (which she has yet to divulge publicly).
Now, fresh tea is being poured painting an altogether different picture.
See what we mean below…
Via TMZ:
Camila Cabello made up her mind a long time ago that she was done with Fifth Harmony — but only officially gave notice a month ago … so say sources close to the band.
Unlike Camila’s account, sources with Fifth Harmony tell us she just dropped the bomb on them mid-November … with no prior discussions to her leaving.
We’re told label execs and the other girls tried to coordinate meetings with Camila for months, in an effort to talk about the future of the group. Sources say Camila ducked all of those. A therapist was even brought on to work with the members … again, we’re told Camila was a no-show for those sessions.
As for Camila saying she had given everyone involved a heads-up well in advance … we’re told that’s BS, and she’s simply trying to save face and play the saint.
Something tells us there’ll be a whole lot more tea tipped over in this messy episode before all is said and done.
We’re more eager to see how things will play out once the dust has settled. Who’ll reign on the charts? Will 5H go on to bigger things ala Destiny’s Child? Will Camila garner support solo?
Stay tuned.

From the start to the end this is a MESS !!!
They should re-record and release “the life” as single to capitalize off all this publicity
I could dig that. I also recently became a big fan of “I Lied” that could be a play of her Camila’s lying.
Word man.
I really hope H4rmony will bounce back off of this, ala Destiny’s Child “Survivor” era..
?
It’s clear didn’t want to be in the group. I do feel Camila has what it take to be a big pop star and no doubt she will fit right in with Ariana and Selena. You only get one chance you pop in this industry, so I commend her for going on a leap of faith while she is hot!
She does fit in with those fellow pop tarts but vocally she can’t touch Ariana’s range/power. And I say that NOT as a fan of Ariana like that.
–
I still think she will need to heavily rely on her latin roots to differentiate herself from Selena. Honestly I never got why Selena never utilized that more.
Beautiful gowns lol
That Aretha Franklin shade. ????
I hate this, no girl group can ever stick together. It goes on to teach another generation of girls that other females are their “competition”
Theres always more to the story when a Girl Group starts to break up. This is just the beginning lol
The other girls kicked her out b4 she could all the way establish herself solo! The label dropped her quickly! Solo stardom is not gonna come easy… she’s gonna have to work twice as hard! She’s regretting her reason already! U can tell she thought she was better then the others! Dinah is gonna have to take over Camilla’s parts or just change the song arrangements to fit their performance style! They will still be fine as a 4 member group!
Y E S S S S ????✊??
Camila is not my fav, (Nor is 5H )but she was a big part of the group. She’s more of a fan favorite. At this point the remaining 4 need to take some time off, or try solo material/shows for 6-12 months. They need time to mature and not lean or depend on each other. I won’t say any names, but some need to learn how to SING better. And, some need to work on the stage presence & dancing on beat in unison with everybody else. Ladies get some vocal training and tighten up with some ballet classes and yall will be fine. Come back at the end of 2017 ready to slay without Mickey Mouse lol
No way. Taking time off is going to ruin their 2016 momentum. Just like DC did when LeToya and LaTavia were let go, keep it moving.
–
They need a new album released by June 2017. I say a single from it by April 2017. They can take January off to be with fam but come February they need to be working on recording and preparing for a new tour and such.

No time but the present.
Destinys Child was at the beginning of their most successful album campaign when the 1st split happened they couldn’t cancel tours tours/promo dates/music videos. All that stuff is planned in advanced. They didn’t just jump into survivor. The Writing’s on The Wall came out in June 1999, by December Letoya and Latavia were done. Promo lasted literally until early 2001. They rode that album for a long time. From what the statements show… looks like 5th harmony planned to take time off for solo material but was also in discussion about what was next for the group. Camila knew what she was doing, she simply wasn’t interested. The tour is over and album/ singles were clearly done for this era. If they keep just putting out material eventually they will burn out and in 2 yrs there won’t be a 5H. Maybe start recording new music in July. The single out in late October/November and the album can be put out by the end of 2017. That’s really not a long time to wait on an album.
Please go solo So you can flop & be humbled! This will be Nicole from the PCD all over again. There will only be Beyonce & only one Justin Timberlake!
Waayyy before them, there were very popular and successful artist who were in popular groups, then had a succesful solo career!!
Michael Jackson
Diana Ross
George Michael
Lauryn Hill
Phill Collins
Rod Stewart
Lionel Richie
Cher
Tina Turner
Dr. Dress
Ice Cube
Neil Young
Sting
That’s just off the top of my head. Beyonce and Justin followed them and became successful.
*Dr. Dre
You better show off your music knowledge! Yaaaaassssss!!!
But her name should NEVER be mentioned with these artists! You mentioned folks with palatable skills…. she can’t sit with their help.
Thank you, i’m so sick of people acting as if Beyonce is the first and last to do s***! She’s not talented, she’s not beautiful, she can’t speak, she can’t act, and she steals. Bye!
*Kelly Rowland
Na…not if this camila girl sells out like beyonce did. I think she’s already sold out btw so she won’t flop or anything like that. She’ll be all over pop radio, Lord save my ears. But to be as big as beyonce you got to give your soul straight to the devil sadly. To bad beyonce will burn in hell unless she repents. Good thing she is living it up now here on earth because it will not last. Or actually she is not living it up, her fans just think so but her life is actually very sad, I’d hate to be a puppet to the industry too, having little to no control over what I do, yes queen beyonce – who you all worship to the high heavens is under MK Ultra mind control, just like britney, minaj, b.o.b and all the other sell outs. Camila probably already is too.
I changed my mind, I didn’t know they were in their mid 20s. It’s now or never fir solo success.
They are not. The Ally girl is 23, and the others are all 20 or 19. Still very young ladies.
This is so messy but I love that they are not protecting the departure of her. Makes me think she has a deal with UMG (Interscope or Island) and not with Epic or Syco.
–
Because wouldn’t they want to protect this drama from getting out if she was still making that label money, yes! Invested interests.
These girls suck both collectively and individually.
lol
When I saw she was doing song and shows with other artist with her solo squeals “The Writings On The Wall” bish.
Then the stories of all of these anxiety attacks & missing shows in 2016 all of a suddden smelled of a exit plan.
If you’re with 4 others and can’t control anxiety, how you doing when 2 of you on stage gurl?
Imma get my popcorn
How come male groups can stay together for long periods of time, But female groups cannot!…. Says alot…
Wishing them all the best
