Lauren Jauregui Opens Up About Why She's Taking a Social Media Break

Lauren Jauregui is getting candid about online bullying.

The 20-year-old Fifth Harmony recently decided to take a break from Twitter after she experienced some major backlash.

“I feel like a lot of people disregard the scrutiny that people like us are under,” Lauren told ET. “We’re not all thin, model types, and we’re not all perfectly colored. It mind-boggles me that somebody would take time out of their life to make someone feel inferior because of something like that. That to me, is insane.”

Lauren added, “You can’t help it as a human being when you’re put under so much scrutiny, by multiple people, not even just one person in real life, telling you something. It harms you. We try to sit with each other and lift each other up, and these people who are telling you things, these people are all behind their computers who are envious of what you have, and the abilities that you have.”
