The oldest 5H member gushed over just how special the King of Pop was and still is.
Michael Jackson was so special :( He was one of a kind. A king. Superhuman. Magic. An angel He will forever be so dear to my heart — AllyBrooke Hernandez (@AllyBrooke) August 23, 2015
She regarded visiting the home Jackson was raised in as "one of the most surreal, chilling, & beautiful experiences."

Camila Cabello seemed to be the most affected 5H member after walking through Jackson's childhood home. "[N]eedless to say [I] burst into tears," she admitted.
yesterday in Indiana we got to walk inside the same house Michael Jackson grew up in. needless to say i burst into tears — camEEla cabeYo (@camilacabello97) August 23, 2015
Why did Cabello wind up crying? Well, she explained that walking through Jackson's childhood home made her think about all the kids in small towns that don't think they have a chance at pursing their dreams "because of the circumstances."
made me think of so many talented kids in small towns that don't think they have a real shot at their dreams because of the circumstances — camEEla cabeYo (@camilacabello97) August 23, 2015
She revealed she once felt that way considering she came from a different country before calling the United States her home. And even after settling in the United States she still felt she didn't stand a chance due to "no money, no connections, no hope, nothing."
i know because i came from a completely different country and i thought i didn't have a shot- no money, no connections, no hope, nothing — camEEla cabeYo (@camilacabello97) August 23, 2015
Cabello did mention though that regardless of where one comes from anything is possible "if you work hard enough" and she is proof of that.
whether you come from Havana, Cuba, or Miami, or Texas, or LA, or Gary, indiana, you can be who you want to be if you work hard enough
