Career
2012–2018: The X Factor and Fifth Harmony
Jane auditioned for The X Factor in 2012 singing “If I Were a Boy” by Beyoncé. For her bootcamp solo performance she sang “Hero” by Mariah Carey and is the only member from Fifth Harmony to have it aired. She sang against Diamond White for her bootcamp round singing “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You)” during which she forgot some of the lyrics. She was eliminated during the bootcamp round of competition, but was brought back along with Ally Brooke, Normani, Lauren Jauregui, and Camila Cabello to form the girl group now known as Fifth Harmony. The group made it all the way to the finals and landed in third place.
Fifth Harmony’s debut song was “Miss Moving On”. They released their debut EP, Better Together in 2013, their first album Reflection in January 2015, and their second album 7/27 in May 2016. Their first two albums generated the singles “Worth It” and “Work from Home“, respectively, which reached the top 10 in several international charts. The group also contributed music to the soundtrack of the animated film Hotel Transylvania 2 with their song “I’m in Love with a Monster“. They released their third self-titled third studio album, and first as a four-member group on August 25, 2017, following Cabello’s departure. On March 19, 2018, the group announced an indefinite hiatus to focus on solo projects.
