Fifth Harmony star: 'It shocks me that people still devote their time to bringing others down'

Fifth Harmony singer Dinah Jane Hansen has criticised those who "bring others down" by bullying.

Her bandmate Normani Kordei recently confirmed she was leaving Twitter after receiving racist abuse on the platform.

Some fans had previously got on her back after she described colleague Camila Cabello as "quirky" and "cute" while praising her other bandmates more generously.

Speaking on Twitter, Hansen said she is "shocked" that people still want to attack each other.

She wrote on Sunday night (August 7): "Over the past 48 hours I have heard and seen too much over an issue that is so small, but yet has become so big.

"With all the pain in the world right now, it shocks me each and everyday that people still devote their time to bringing others down other than lifting them up . It does not make you"cool" . It does not make you "clever". It makes you a damn coward, nothing less.

"Do not take your time to hate. Take your time to love. It will always go farther."
