Los Angeles, Apr 7 (PTI) Former Fifth Harmony star Camila Cabello made quite the journey to get where she is today but the singer says she was not very confident about things in her childhood.
In a recent interview with Glamour magazine, the 20-year-old singer and her mother, Sinuhe, opened up about coming to the US from Cuba, reported Entertainment Tonight.
"We flew from Cuba to Mexico, and went by bus to the American border, it took a month," Sinuhe told the magazine.
"We left everyone behind, my friends, my family. My fear was that my husband wouldn't (ever) be able to come."
Cabello, who recalled that she was "very introverted" as a child and had trouble making friends in a new country, had brought just one thing with her to America-- a doll her mother found at a flea market.
"I started bringing my CDs to the YMCA after school; I'd ask for the boom box and go play my music in the corner and people would come over. And I created a little YouTube channel doing covers -- I must have posted 50.
"Even though I'd be like, 'Oh my God, this is so bad,' music was the thing I was passionate enough about to get over being shy," Cabello said.
"After seeing a One Direction 'tips on auditioning for The X Factor (USA)' video, I asked Mom if I could audition," she said.
The popular singing competition gave Cabello her big break, as she was grouped together with Normani Kordei, Lauren Jauregui, Dinah Jane and Ally Brooke, forming Fifth Harmony.
In December 2016, however, she left the group to pursue a solo career.
