Lauren Jauregui: 'I was too scared of failure until my world shifted'

Lauren Jauregui has unveiled that she's only ever written two songs before and has only really embraced songwriting this year.

In a tweet uploaded on May 14, she said: 'Fun fact: I actually only started writing actual songs this year. I had only written two songs in my life completely that I thought were ok and I was too scared of failure to try until my world shifted earlier this year. My first song was in February. Wrote 2 more after.

'& the rest of the songs you’ll hear I’ve actually written within the past 3 weeks/month. Literally in the studio every day just opening the floodgates of all the shit I never let myself say. So..yeah lol never give up on yourself and DO IT ANYWAY BECAUSE YOU CAN ONLY GET BETTER.

'I was like 'nonononooooo I don’t wanna be bad at thissssss it’s literally what I love the mossssstttt.

'And then I met my friend Khaled (not the DJ, he’s a producer) and he pushed me out of my comfort zone and made me do it anyway.

'Clarification, my album isn’t done yet haha I’m still workin and getting in that studio till the last possible second.'

Last week Jauregui revealed her favourite part of the songwriting process. A month ago, she performed 'Back To Me' at Coachella with Marian Hill.
