Camila Cabello: 'I loved that song but I had to turn it down'

Camila Cabello has revealed that she originally recorded 'Closer' with The Chainsmokers before Halsey did.

Speaking on the Elvis Duran Morning Show she divulged:

"I loved the song but I had to turn it down because I was with the group at the time, and we were about to put an album out. I always tried to do my solo stuff off cycle, so that was super on, and so I had to say no, and then that was the No.1 song in the world."

'Closer' was a massive hit for The Chainsmokers and Halsey last summer (2016). It became No.1 in the US Billboard Hot 100 for 12 consecutive weeks. It was also No. 1 in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, India, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, UK and Venezuela.
