MIA. As in Missing In Action.

Camila Cabello was not part of her former band’s surprise reunion on Sunday night.

When Fifth Harmony took the stage at the Jonas Brothers’ concert at Dallas’ Dos Equis Pavilion only four members of Fifth Harmony were up there.

As seen in a video on the group’s Instagram, Normani, Ally Brooke, Dinah Jane and Lauren Jauregui dance up a storm while singing 2015’s “Worth It.” This marked the ladies’ first live performance together in seven years.

“Where were you on August 31, 2025?” their caption said. “Thank you @jonasbrothers for having us. Felt amazing to be back.”

Among the myriad commenters were nostalgic fans thrilled over the throwback cameo. But others wondered, where was Cabello?

A scan of the pop star’s social media reveals very, very far away from Dallas, on the other side of the world in Australia. So that’s about as good an excuse as you can get.

On one of the “Havana” singer’s post from Melbourne, a bunch of folks demanded to know why she wasn’t at the JoBro show. Others wanted an ETA for the next time she’d show up with her old bandmates who officially split up in 2018 (Cabello left in 2016 to go solo).

lInterestingly (or intelligently), Cabello turned off followers’ comments on her subsequent Down Under post, this time from Sydney.

But maybe conspiracy theorists should all just calm down before starting up feud rumors. There doesn’t seem to be any bad blood among the talented crew who first got together in 2013 after impressing Simon Cowell on “The X Factor.”

More proof of everything being hunky dory with the erstwhile quintet: Just check the band’s Sunday night post. Next to it, Cabello dropped four heart emojis, which received more than 85,000 likes by Tuesday.
