In for the kiss! Fifth Harmony singer Lauren Jauregui shares a smooch with another woman and the photo goes viral
Fifth Harmony Lauren Jauregui enjoyed what might have been an entirely innocuous kiss with another woman at a wedding last Friday.
Yet the image has gone viral online, prompting a groundswell of affectionate messages from her fans.
The Latin Times are identifying the other woman as Lucy Vives, whose father is the Colombian telenovela star and singer Carlos Vives.

The picture itself is from a collage of what appear to be photo booth snapshots taken during the wedding festivities.
Therein, Jauregui appears in a slinky cleavage-baring scarlet dress, right next to Vives. They share the booth with a man and woman who may be a couple.
In one picture, the possible couple share a kiss on one side of the frame, and on the other, Jauregui and Vives do the same.

A supportive hashtag, #LongLoveLauren, has flared up on Twitter since the image went public. Though it's not clear there's any actual romance between Jauregui and her kiss partner, her fans have been assuring her they accept her if there is.
One, @lumosregui, wrote: 'I don't care if she's straight, gay, bi, a unicorn or whatever you want her to be, i love her to the moon and back anyway #LongLoveLauren.'
Another one with the handle @FedericaDeggio tweeted: 'keep smiling baby,' followed by a heart and: 'you're special, no matter what. italy loves you #LongLoveLauren'.

For her own part, Jauregui has yet to comment specifically about the kiss, though she did post two Instagram updates about the wedding.
One Sunday post was of the bride and groom at the altar in a lavishly decorated church as the priest officiating the ceremony spoke before them.
The 20-year-old's caption read: 'Congratulations babiesss,' crowing: 'So happy to be family nowww @miaonbrickell you're the sweetest addition to the family we could've possibly asked for.'
'Congratulations babiessss': Though Jauregui hasn't publicly addressed the kiss, she did post Instagram updates from the wedding itself
She went on: 'Hilarious and so thoughtful and creative(: you're quite the catch. I love you guys and wish you the besttt! #bayouboda'.
The following photo saw the tops of several white wedding parasols splashed with gold fleurs-de-lis. A slew of people holding them seemed to be part of a large procession down the street.
'2nd line all the way from the chapel to the hotel!' Jauregui captioned. 'Probably one of the most fun things I've ever participated in!! #bayouboda'.
'2nd line all the way from the chapel to the hotel!': She also posted a photo of revellers carrying white umbrellas splashed with gold fleurs-de-lis in what looked like a wedding procession
