Exploring the World's Messiest Girl Group: Fifth Harmony
Hey everyone welcome back to my channel! Today we're going to be doing a video that I've been wanting to make for YEARS but never followed through with just cause I felt like it didn't really fit the channel. Someone actually commented asking for this a few weeks back though (thank you btw! probably wouldn't have ended up doing it if you hadn't!!) so I took it as fate and thought it was about time we looked back on one of the messiest girl groups in history, Fifth Harmony.
To give a brief backstory on the group just in case you aren't aware of them, Fifth Harmony were a girl group consisting of Camila Cabello, Normani Kordei, Lauren Jauregui, Ally Brooke and Dinah Jane that was formed on X Factor back in 2012. This was around the time that other X Factor groups like One Direction and Little Mix were active and doing well so they were seen as their American counterpart. After placing 3rd on the show they went on to release 2 EPs and 4 albums before going on hiatus in 2018 while Camila Cabello left the group in 2016. Since then all the girls are pursuing their solo careers.
While Fifth Harmony has a great discography I think they're most well known for their footprint on the internet including a lot of shade, chaos and memes so I thought we could compile some of their best (and worst) moments as a group to look back on throughout all their eras from Better Together and Reflection all the way to 7/27 and their self titled era. This isn't going to be an exhaustive look at their history as a group because I wanted to focus more on the stand out moments that felt the most "Fifth Harmony" if that makes sense lol. But if there are moments that come to mind while watching please share them in the comments! I'm hoping that it'll be like a fun sea of chaotic memories from when the group were active lol.
As always if you enjoyed the video feel free to give it a like and subscribe it really helps me out! You can also turn on my post notifications if you wanna be notified every time I upload. But otherwise, really hope you guys enjoy and I'll see yall in the comment section!! :)

@@GotoMaki4Micah You are incredibly condescending. A lawyer who reviewed the contracts of all the girls EXCEPT Camila stated it was one of the worst they have ever seen. You clearly have zero clue about entertainment law. There are clips of Lauren crying about how overworked they were. They were young girls for crying out loud. Singers also get PENNIES if they aren’t writing or producing the song. And because they were signed as young girls, the industry was able to exploit them. People like you are why the industry continue to harm others because you blame the victims of the system that you have zero influence or experience in. Camila had an exclusive contact which is why she was able to record her own music outside of the group. There is reason to suspect the remaining four are locked into bogus contracts which is why they can’t release music (especially Normani who is signed to RCA).

The biggest issue with these groups formed on X Factor is that they all originally wanted to be soloists. They auditioned as solo acts and were thrown in a group together. It isn’t as shocking as people make it out to be that all these groups ended up going astray as the attention and creative direction they originally wanted for themselves suddenly was split with all these other people. Mix that with some unhealthy competition and popularity differences between members, it’s not surprising these groups didn’t last long.

[@vaeetq]

That’s also somewhat the reason but it was mainly cause their management were secretly trying to tear each other apart and making them look bad

[@iosashes2087]

They really weren’t though. They have many, many genuine moments in comparison to “shady” ones. The weirdest thing about 5H is that people talk about them like most of them weren’t teenagers for near the entire group. They occasionally worked each other’s nerves but for the most part got along (and still do). Even the actual dynamics of their breakup with Camila are very unspectacular. They didn’t even split because of personal reasons so it’s funny that their relationships with each other get so critically analyzed especially since they (specifically Camila, Lauren, Normani, and Dinah) still interact semi-often online like friends would.

[@abbyz13]

@@iosashes2087 do you know them well enough to say all this though? lol. if you watched them from the start, they all obviously wanted to be solo artists but were forced to work together, consequently a LOT of their “friendly” scenes were clearly forced and scripted as well. no one becomes close enough to be hanging all over each other & laughing within a week, and yet that’s what the drama-singing shows want us to believe. celebrities aren’t friends, they’re people doing their jobs. 5H makes that very obvious with the competitive singing over each other & petty looks

[@jepros]

Syco 100% designed 5H with only Camila's solo career in mind. They got a bunch of impressionable teen girls to act oversexualised on stage for a few years in the most boring pre-packaged group until Camila felt ready to launch herself. They even began introducing Camila to solo press and solo recording opportunities way before the others, and that bred hostility amongst the group because it was obvious what was happening. The Taylor Swift friendship only extended to Camila as well, it was all about establishing her and as soon as she left it was just about winding them down. Cowell probably wanted to do the same with 1D and Harry but the boys were much more aware earlier on and fought back hard against their control. Cowell has no attention span or care for his acts long term, he invests for 2-3 years max then either drops, shelves or is already busy with whatever act has popped out of the X Factor(y) mill this season. XF acts that succeed do so in spite of Simon Cowell, not because of him. He also binds them in 10 year contracts that say they can never criticise him or XF either forever or until years down the line. Same happened with Leona Lewis.

[@scentist_error]

With what the ex members have said now that Fifth Harmony broke up, and in overall how they acted during their career, I think it's very likely that someone, or several someones, in their management kept *actually* pitting the girls against each other. When you work with each other for years, you're bound to have at least some sort of relationship, whether it's acquaintances or friends. Those girls were barely acting like a team, and I'm pretty sure that their management played into that by a lot.

witnessing western pop groups as a long-time kpop stan is such a strange experience and i don't know how to explain why

[@Bizz293]

Because K-pop groups are trained before being put together and western groups don’t do that. It’s so much more chaotic, and if a group succeeds it’s because the members themselves make the group cohesive. In K-pop, the companies pull all the strings - even if the members don’t get along, you wouldn’t know. It’s seamless work.

[@nicolegoh9748]

​​@@Bizz293also culture makes things drastically different, in Asia we value collectivism which is why most idols are okay with putting group activities ahead before releasing their own solo career. The mindset is "we work as a team and bring in recognition for the group so we can all succeed together". American pop stars value their individuality a lot more so things like clashes of music taste and vision and image can be a huge dealbreaker

I was a dedicated and die hard Harmonzier. The girls are truly the sweetest, did develop a genuine friendship along the way. You can’t blame 5 young teen girls for taking the first step in a music career, joining a girl group. They took advantage of an amazing opportunity, but were unfortunately treated like shit by label/management. Constantly touring, rarely any breaks, with no proper salary or sense of security. (READ Ally Brooke’s book “Finding Your Harmony”, it’s SO GOOD). I don’t ever believe the girls fall out were amongst themselves, I feel like years of being worked like dogs and possible mental abuse drove the apart to really pursue their solo careers, like when Camila jumped ship. But all those times they did sing together, laugh together, and just enjoyed being a girl group were so fun to be apart of. I love all the girls equally still, I will always root for them❤️

[@iosashes2087]

I wanna point out that a lot of their “out of sync” dancing is because they’re all such different sizes and shapes. Most girl groups get girls of similar heights and weights on purpose so that they’ll look more cohesive. There’s a 9 inch height difference between the shortest and tallest 5H members and all of them have very different body types so even doing the same moves the same way looked very different girl to girl. That’s why Lauren is killing it when the focus is only on her but when it’s on all of them it looks messy. Normani and Dinah for example were the best dancers, but also had the most similar body types (taller and curvier than the others) so they always looked more in sync compared to the other 3.

[@504ever4]

That was one thing about 5H that always threw me off. Even in their music videos, the choreography was weird because they all had such different body types.

[@35thrat]

izone with their shortest member not even being 5' and their tallest being around 5'7:

[@iosashes2087]

@@35thrat Not an equivalent comparison. There was TWELVE of them and they’re all of the same background and have similar body types. The shortest 5H member was 4’11 and the tallest 5’8 with only 5 and eventually 4 girls. To add to it, most 5H members can be described with dramatically polar opposite qualities. The big blonde and the little blonde (Dinah and Ally), the thin brunette and the thick brunette (Camila and Lauren), the dark skinned girl and the pale skinned girl (Normani and Lauren), etc. The girls had vastly different skin colors, hair colors, hairstyles, hair textures, heights, weights, shapes, everything…which is not something you find in most groups. The dramatic differences in their appearances even went beyond that. Dinah is 4 months younger than Camila and looked like she was in her mid-20s despite being a teenager the entire group while Camila looked barely 15/16 at 19 years old. And personally I liked how different each member was. That’s what made them interesting and enjoyable to me. But to pretend it was all their fault for looking “out of sync” sometimes when even just visually they were chaotic is disingenuous.

As an old harmonizer, I feel like the girls had a close friendship at the start (pretty evident) but being led by an abusive, corrupt company definitely drove them apart & made them view each other as competitors. Syco was extremely abusive & controlling. & I can’t imagine handling everything they did at age 15: fame, hate, being overworked, picked apart constantly, always compared to their members, etc. they probably had so much pent up anger & ended up taking it out on each other. In happier news, I think now that they’re older they have a better perspective of what happened to them. Camila even has a lyric is psychofreak that says “I don’t blame the girls for how it went down.” And Ally said in an interview that she used to hate her time in 5H (being under Syco, not about her members) but now she can look back on those years fondly and think “wow we really did that.” I’ve loved 5H since I was a kid & I’m just glad to see they’re doing good now.

The girls worked their asses off, they deserve better treatment. Glad Ally fought back! Their label really hounded the girls to work!!

[@maninedoow5895]

Yep!!! In fact they actually got their name rights in 2015.

[@shaggypoo4120]

Wow that's impressive! Ally's smart, she's probably foreseeing a comeback after pop groups before 5H had their comebacks too and had trouble with their name.

Little Mix will always be the best girl group in the world because they are so in sync. What’s crazy is that Little Mix and Fifth Harmony were under the same management.

[@franciscomarcelino3436]

Yeah it’s crazy, but it all has to do with who their label favoured. In this case it was FH. The only reason LM aren’t as bis as FH is that their label didn’t really care about them, since they always stood for woman empowerment and never let themselves get sexualised by their label. Jade even said in an interview once, that someone from their management or label, I can’ remember, told the girls to flirt with older men to get their songs played on the radio. FH on the other hand, never really stood for those things and they let themselves get sexualised (not shaming them though, since they were super young when they started together). I mean you only have to listen to songs like “Work from Home” or “Worth it”.

[@heavymetalkendra]

@@franciscomarcelino3436 It sucks because a Little Mix is literally the strongest group one of the best girl groups to ever exist. the powerful vocals, synchronized choreography and the amazing message in the music, and the fact that they didn’t blow up in America is insane to me. I think they were way too much for America, they would’ve overwhelmed the market. In my humble opinion they should’ve gotten success One Direction did. But unfortunately you can’t beat fan girls that’s find boys “cute”

[@franciscomarcelino3436]

@@heavymetalkendra you’re so right on so many levels omg. For me LM also deserved the fame One Direction or FH got. They are indeed one of the most hardworking artist out there right now and barely anyone knows them outside the UK (compared to other artists). They’ ve always deserved and the will always deserve the world. But yeah, it’s just like you said. There’s nothing much you can do about young young girls who nearly worship One Direction.

[@AlejandraAvelarde]

Yeah, that’s true. I think one of the reason that LM doesn’t have a lot of popularity it’s because they have a lot of songs, if you saw one direction and 5H doesn’t have a lot of songs, that makes the people love that and give a chance to make popular all the album. Another thing that I saw is LM only have a few really popular songs and it’s like one or tree from all their career, something like that. And I saw and their fans are really calm and honest with the group so that means like they enjoy their music but they don’t do a lot of things for the group, but they deserve it and they have a lot of followers in Spotify because they have a good music, but all the people prefers populars groups. I think that

i am BEGGING for you to talk about the Blackpink tours because they’re a hot MESS

4:28 you do not drag "one wish" like that, it had an amazing chorus, it felt like i was free from a non existent relationship

[@larissaxcabral]

the hold these girls had on me 😭😭 first fandom i was ever a part of

[@bigstronkgorl2138]

SAME. I was die hard.

[@detroitvinyl]

I was a fan, but their styles were too different. Their solo careers suit them so much more than 5H (and I say that as someone who still loves their 7/27 album). It's a shame that their solo stuff didn't get any attention, now they barely release anything and we haven't seen an album from any of the 4. Camila's the only one who got a career boost, and I'm glad she has enough recognition and popularity that she can stray away from "pop" and do latin music.

[@handsanitizer5127]

If they weren't so shady when Camila left, people might have been curious about the others and wanna check them out.

[@vaibh4vi]

camila is kinda weird tho

[@dearhyeri]

Are we forgetting that camila is a racist freak? This is beyond me..

[@nattievoices]

She doing Latin cause her newer pop didn’t do so well. That’s what Becky G did

[@mikhailaingram1213]

Normani had that huge hit with Khalid in 2018, a song with Sam smith in 2019, and a sing with cardi b a year ago. She’s done well as a feature artist since their split
