Camila Cabello Explains Why She Left Fifth Harmony

For the first time, Camila Cabello explaines in detail why she finally decided to quit her former group, Fifth Harmony, in December 2016. But that's not all the tea she's decided to spill.

In a revealing new New York Times Cabello said her choice to perform "I Know What You Did Last Summer" as a solo act with Shawn Mendes paired with creative difference finally compelled her to up and leave. She said she wanted to contribute lyrics to group songs, but was rebuffed.
​
“I was just curious and I wanted to learn and I saw all these people around me making music, writing songs and being so free...I just wanted to do that and it did not work," she said. "It became clear that it was not possible to do solo stuff and be in the group at the same time...if anyone wants to explore their individuality, it’s not right for people to tell you no.”

Cabello's first Solo Album drops January 12.
