Simon Cowell Reveals Camila Cabello Almost Didn’t Get Audition For 'The X Factor' 

Camila’s life story is like a movie 🎥

‘Laying on the floor crying’ yup, definitely Camila

So it's totally true when Camila said she came to the auditions for several days and didn't get called until the last day of her audition. Thank you so much Simon, Britney, Demi, LA Reid for the four yes

Getting Camila into that first audition is the one reason I am thankful to Simon. I can't imagine not having her music in my life, so many times her songs helped me through good times and bad times. Kelly, you are amazing too. I would love if one day you and Camila collab together. I love you both!

When he mentioned “the eyes”, I immediately visioned Kelly’s American idol audition. She has that fearless spark.

But we still want her audition to be aired, come on Simonnn

Imagine that this man shows us camila's audition at once, it's about time 😭

So glad they let Camila audition! She really was one of the best singers for that year

Camila, what an amazingly talented of an artist she is!!!❤️

omg i love Simon just because of what he said here. Literally he was the one who encouraged Cami to audition even if some people wouldn't wanted to let her do it. He said, go on audition! that's some beautiful side of him that we never get to hear from people or even see. Great Simon!

What if Simon never went for that cigarette? We wouldn't have known Camila.

Camila is so well deserved!! Damn the music industry really needed someone like her 😍

Camila Cabello is amazingly beautiful and talented! She is so versatile, great singer, amazing vocals, songwriter, performer and now actress. I love all of her songs and performances. She is a force of nature, one of a kind artist❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

when life and luck want you to make it, you sure will. camila deserves everything beautiful. she's a good soul.

My fav Camila 🌻

Camila's a precious gem

Omg Camila ❤ !! So talented

Camila! 💛💛💛

He looks rough but considering he was in the hospital for months, good on him!

It’s X Factor not AGT. Also CAMILA LEGEND!!!

Yes camila thank you ❤️

Don't you mean X Factor haha

Just imagine if he didn’t go have that cig man damn all her bangers from 5H or solo would not be here

How time flies... Kelly was a contestant in American Idol judging by Simon, now he's on her show👍.

Almost 10 years later and still can’t pronounce her name right 😂😂😂😂

CAMILA CABELLO!!! SUCH AN ARTIST!!! 💃🏽♥️

*THE X FACTOR, GUYS!*

Fascinating to see the one who started her career sitting right next to her after almost 20 years

These words of his, to share with us that moment is just like Mistic Gold, it´s so incredibly special and valuable, thank you for sharing that with us Mr. Simon, wow, I can also appreciate that sensitivity in you more now !.

Simon did God's work. CC3 & Cinderella soundtrack album are coming #2021

So good to see Simon. I missed him...

just 2 things: 1. didn't Camilla audition for the x factor usa? 2. i cant be the only one who believes that Camilla looks like the young Paula Abdul right?

True 'The Eyes' 🙏🏽❤️love you #SimonCowell

Imagine if Camila didn't audition; all we still know about Havana is Fidel Castro. She changed Havana ya'll.

Thank you sir Simon Cowell for giving opportunity to my queen Camila ❤️🙏

It’s was the X Factor guysss 😅

Havent heard simon’s voice in a while😁

Camila Cabello Almost Didn’t Get Audition For 'AGT? you mean Xfactor LOL!!

Correction: Camila went on the X factor USA...not AGT

Camila es lo mejor que pudo pasarle a la musica ❤❤❤❤

Agt??? Lmaoooo

The mega Judge Simon Cowell is a great shiner who makes a shining celebrity. I think he is the mega icon, all like him.👍

I love camila so so so much 🖤🖤🖤

Clearly Kelly doesn’t have Gays running her RU-vid 😂😂😂

It was x factor not agt

We love 💘 you Simon everyone's loved you ❤

Some things were meant to be regardless of how they happened. Camila is now a very big name in the music industry thanks to Simon

Well done Kelly on all your success! Such a great and talented person! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

He so right...its the eyes and its not just being able to see if they have talent...you can see evil in someone eyes ,even tho they smile..you can tell what kind of person someone is thru their eyes,ive ALWAYS believed that...eyes are the window into the soul...? Isn't that how the saying goes? Anyways ,was just saying hes right and I have that gift too..being able to tell how a person is,thru their eyes...maybe not EVERY time(maybe they didn't get sleep and their eyes are all red and aggro from no sleep),but for the majority and exceptions aside,,it's truthful..

When Simon meets the first winner of American Idol

simon has done so much for the music industry

For once Simon is wearing a different colour shirt🤣

She didn't tho... Or at least I didn't see that. I remember a 15 year old, fangirling over Demi, and saying she stayed in bed all day watching 1D videos... But that was on The X Factor.

Camila on agt or xfactor?

C'mon people...you really think Simon remembers Camila's audition. He could barely remember people who came back the next year after making it all the way to judges houses or the six chair challenge. He loves to take credit for things he had little hand in. The cigarette story may have happened but it could have been any female contestant but he says it's Camila to make it more than it was.

One Direction.. Camila Cabello? What about the rest of Fifth Harmony? LOOOL.

There is a video call The downfall of Syco and explains so many ways of Simon's company exploit, abuse and mistreated the artist that they managed like one direction, little mix, fifth harmony etc. I really recommend it.

Didn't she auditioned for X factor?

*x factor....Kelly

Kelly clarkson ... the most successful american idol winner and first winner too. Simon needs to come back to American idol.

O.0 oh no wait how did she get in?...

This guy is the beast, please. It's unbelievable how he gets credits for discovering artist when he's the one who ruin their lifes with horrible contracts.

They made a mistake, they need to change the title to the X Factor

Shout out to 5H!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm

The intern messed up the title😅

This source is nothing news, I this long ago.

What is going on with his make up?

Algum BR traduz

He won't talk about the people who spoke out against him and his labels treatment though. 😬✌

You wrong because tori k. Was exception 🌺

Funny most of his "discovers " don't want to do anything with him or his label anymore...

Simon took half the first season to be sold on Kelly.

Camila audition for the X Factor not AGT. Darling check your facts.

Simon looks so old. Thanks!

Lmao reveals? I said it when she auditioned that it was fake and she was recruited for this group, ps they also performed songs on X factor that Camilla had already covered on RU-vid.... then she was praised for her vocals while the other girls were told to step it up, she was a planned soloist from day 1

0:52 WHY?!? PRODUCERS CHOOSE THE SONGS. IT'S NOT A SINGER'S CHOICE. WHY IS HE LYING? 🙄😬

Is it just me, or does Simon look WAY different

And thats why theres not record of camila auditioning

wowowowow

He looks off because his shirt isnt black or dark grey

Thank you simon 🖤

….. why didn’t they say fifth harmony not just camila

Wrong show

love how the x factor usa is basically forgotten by everyone by now lmao

What happened to his mouth omg

If only they were given a chance to show ther Hidden Talent, Normani Kordei will Stan .. Even though she has a Light , Melodic Voice, She can do some Whistle Voice and good at Runs & Riffs .. Ally Brooke on the other way is on the other Level when she reaches the high note of the Song .. Feels like you're in Heaven when she changes the rhythm of the song into her own just to show how powerful her voice was .. In Lauren Jauregui's situation, I love her Husky voice when she sings .. Dinah Jane's Falsetto and Head Voice Blends the Songs they Sing .. Seems like she is the Spice of the Group (Even Normani can do Whistle Note and Ally Brooke Using Chest Voice in a song but it depends on the Song they are going to Sing) .. Camila Cabello having a Lyric-Soprano Voice (Shaky, jawdrop Voice) .. I don't hate Camila Cabello but throwing racism to her fellow groupmate, Normani Kordei, makes me feel disgusting about the Personality she had .. Yeah, She got the Appreciation (It's because she is a Show-off type of Individual) .. For Me, it's better that the four of them will remain but they were still separated maybe because they find themselves better to have their own Career as a Solo Artist .. But still expecting for the Come Back of the FOUR after watching their Music Video " Don't Say You Love Me " :) ..

He aged like milk

only camila fans from the beginning know that this man made her and the girls from 5h go trought hell and back

Simon is so skinny! Is he healthy?

The dizzy salad electrophoretically nod because fridge meteorologically check from a agonizing cabbage. living, whispering road

The fact she didn’t name FIFTH HARMONY wow lost my respect for her

Now that's a plastic surgery gone wrong!

Wow!Coming from a Billie Eilish hater.

Camila caballo is a liar? We all know that.

Uh, but werent they suppose to eliminate Camila together with the rest of the girls as solo but then decided to put them all in a group? But Simon's story explains why there were no Camila audition video.. they were probably about to wrap up when camila performed her audition..

Work on your own life stop being jealous of mine

"Whether it's One Direction, all those guys, or Camila Cabello" --- um you mean Fifth Harmony. Why doesn't she single out a 1D boy but singles out Camila. Not her praising Camila, does she not care that she's a raycist and with a lot of other problematic behavior, like recently liking an islam0phobe and pro-colonizer post

And now Camila is one of the hottest names of her label that's crazy

Camila is brilliant artist ...i just wish her success and happiness... And the recognition and respect she deserves...and she deserves so much..
