Sam Smith: desperate after the separation of Fifth Harmony
Sam Smith is a big fan of Fifth Harmony and he made it known this Monday. The group's decision to take a break made him very, very sad.
Sam Smith is just like all of us: he is devastated by the separation of Fifth Harmony! The group of girls just announced that they were pausing to focus on their respective solo careers, a break that seems final like the One Direction, and the singer could not help but rush on Twitter to express his dismay, with this message so simple that it is not necessary to translate it: "FIFTH HARMONY !!!!! NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ".
We counted for you, it's 54 exclamation points in one tweet, so it seems obvious that for Sam Smith, as for all fans of the group, it's the worst news of the week.
Sam Smith is not the only one to have expressed his sadness about the announcement of the separation of one of the most popular groups in recent years. "I'm so sad, can we listen to their albums crying together?", For example wrote a fan in response to the singer.
But everyone will be able to dry their tears by listening to the new songs of the members of the group. After Camila Cabello, who still plays with his hit "Havana", the other members of the group have already started or announced the start of their solo career!

An independent music career creates two kinds of work that rarely respect each other’s schedule.
