Fifth Harmony have apple sauce on tour rider

Fifth Harmony have apple sauce on their tour rider.
Singer Normani Kordei, 20, has revealed she has an addiction for the sweet condiment, which usually accompanies roast pork, and so they have plenty of the stuff with them when they go on the road.
She said: "I love apple sauce. I have an addiction – I don’t know what it is, but I just love the texture of it. It reminds me of baby food. Not that I like to eat baby food."
The ‘Worth It’ hitmakers have also revealed they have massages and pray before they hit the stage.
Ally Brooke, 23, told Digital Spy: "Maybe even sometimes they give us a massage, believe it or not.
"Our wardrobe assistant is awesome and she can do a million things, including massage! We’re getting into costume, we’re warming up, and getting our water all at the same time. And then we pray too, before the show."
And to get them into the mood before they belt out all their hits, the girl group – also comprised of Dinah Jane, Camila Cabello and Lauren Jauregui – love to listen to country music legends including Shania Twain and Carrie Underwood.
Normani said: "Well for the last few shows I’ve been requesting country music.
"I know it sounds super random, but we like Shania Twain, Carrie Underwood and Sam Hunt.
"The song that I go to lately has been ‘Man I Feel Like A Woman’. It gets me pumped for the show and my adrenaline going."
And while their life on the road seems calm and relaxing it is not always so as recently Ally was left terrified after a fan attack in Mexico.
The singer was performing with her bandmates when a man stormed the stage and tried to wrap his arms around her, just days after a fan tried to drag her to the ground at Monterrey airport in the country.
At the time, she said: "I am thankful that I or anyone else was not injured, as these incidents could have gone awry, I love the fans and appreciate their excitement and love for us, however, these situations could easily escalate in the wrong direction for us and the fans.
"I am fine though. I love our fans and am excited to continue performing my heart out on our 7/27 Tour!"
