Today we remember the girl group created on The X Factor consisting of members Camila Cabello, Normani, Ally Brooke, Lauren Jauregui and Dinah Jane.

Fifth Harmony ultimately came in third place on the competition show. The group achieved the most success after gaining a huge fan base while on the show.

The group released one EP and 3 studio albums which all debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200.

Camila has arguably had the most success after leaving the group. However she had a little rocky start in the beginning of her solo journey.

She released two promotional singles Crying in the Club and I Have Questions which were not received well online. The tracks were both ultimately scrapped from her debut album which lead to the release of OMG featuring Quavo and Havana featuring Young Thug which were received much better.

Havana became a global megahit, reaching number one in twenty-three countries worldwide. It is also certified Diamond in six countries.

Her debut album Camila was released in 2018 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

Camila scored first ever No. 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 with Havana in 2018 and later again with Senorita along side Shawn Mendes from her second album Romance in 2019.

She is set to make her acting debut in Cinderella in September and release her third studio album Familia later this year.

Camila has a total of 16 (possibly 17 next week) songs to chart on the Billboard Hot 100.
