Lauren Jauregui Reveals How She Felt About Those Rumors About Her & Camila Cabello
During Camila Cabello‘s time in Fifth Harmony, there were continued rumors about her and Lauren Jauregui being into each other.
Lauren went on Becky G‘s En La Sala podcast on Amazon Music and was asked how she felt about those rumors that the pair secretly had something going on behind the scenes.
“People thought Camila and I were into each other, and that made me so uncomfortable. Like disgustingly so uncomfortable, because I was queer, but she was not. It made me feel like a predator, essentially,” Lauren said. “It made me feel like a predator because of the type of clips people would put together, the type of stories people would write, and the type of stuff, I was always the aggressor, and I was always the one turning her. I was always the one who was like the ‘masculine’ energy in the scenario, and it made me very uncomfortable because that’s not how I identify. That’s not to say that that’s wrong to identify with that.”
“I also did not have that connection with her. Camila and I were just very good friends, at that time,” she added. “We respected each other. When each other would talk, we would look at each other. We had love for each other, like genuine friendship.”
“In the Latinx culture, growing up, I was very affectionate with all of my friends,” Lauren continued. “…that actually made me so uncomfortable to the point where, I, to this day, hyper-analyze every connection that I have with a girl because I don’t want them to feel like I’m looking at them that way.”
Recently, another member of Fifth Harmony addressed another big behind-the-scenes story line.
