'''Lucifer Roberto Hemmingso''' AKA. The penguin loving pretty boy was birthed out of the womb on 16th July 1996. (It must've hurt poor Liz a bit, have you seen this guys legs?!) He is the lead vocals and he's a guitarist in the fabulous Australian pop-punk band and god does he slide up that fret board: talented teen! [[5 Seconds of Summer]].<ref name=twitter>{{cite news |title=Luke Hemmings Twitter |url=https://twitter.com/Luke5SOS |date=1 May 2012 |accessdate=19 february 2014}}</ref> He first became known when he published videos of himself singing on youtube in way back 2011 on his channel, creatively named "Hemmo1996" (Always.. Later on in 2011, his now bandmate Michael Clifford was like "Yo mate, lets start a band" and Luke was like "Sure thang" and Calum was never officially asked, so he may still be on his trial period, no one is entirely sure. In December 2011,<ref name=thehotits>{{cite news |title=The band You Should Be Obsessing Over |url=http://www.thehothits.com/news/30974/5-seconds-of-summer---the-band-you-should-be-obsessing-over |date=1 May 2012 |accessdate=6 August 2012}}</ref> drummer Ashton Irwin joined the band after they came to the sudden realisation that they were in desperate need of a drummer. After the show, they discussed backstage if A-dizzle was to join, and obviously he replied with "FRICK I DO, LEMME IN SOME OF THIS 5SOS STUFF! THIS IS HELLA RAD" therefore completing what is known today as 5 Seconds of Summer/5SOS.

==Early life==
Lucifer grew up with his parents, (Queen) Liz May Hemmings and Andrew Hemmings, Luke's first video, a cover of [Mike Posner]'s "Please Don't Go", was posted on February 3, 2011.<ref>{{cite news |title= Please Don't Go - Cover |url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUDcZsNEA1Y/ |date=1 August 2011 |accessdate=11 February 2014}}</ref> He recorded many covers such as "You Found Me" by [[The Fray]], "Jersey" by [[Mayday Parade]], and many more. He attended (Norwest Christian College) along with the other member of [[5 Seconds of Summer]]. The band included all four of its current members officially on December 4, 2011.<ref>{{cite news |title= the Au interview - 5 Seconds of Summer |url=http://www.theaureview.com/interviews/the-au-interview-5-seconds-of-summer-sydney |date=1 August 2011 |accessdate=19 February 2014}}</ref>

He was joined by current members, minus Ashton, of [[5 Seconds of Summer]] with their cover of [[Chris Brown]]'s "Next 2 You".<ref name="Alex Langlands">{{cite news |title=Meet 5 Seconds Of Summer |author=Alex Langlands |url=http://musicfeeds.com.au/features/meet-5-seconds-of-summer-your-hosts-for-this-evenings-entertainment/ |date=14 May 2012 |accessdate=11 February 2014}}</ref> They quickly became known with 600,000 views on the video<ref name="Alex Langlands"/> and the momentum continued from there. The band even did a mini tour of Australia nicknamed the "Pants Down Tour"<ref>{{cite news |title=Tour History |author=5 Seconds of Summer |url=http://www.5sosonline.com/5-seconds-of-summer/tour-history/ |date=14 May 2012 |accessdate=19 February 2014}}</ref> that included dates in [[Sydney]], [[Perth]], [[Brisbane]], [[Adelaide]], and [[Melbourne]] before taking off on their "Take Me Home" tour with [[One Direction]]. During this period in life, puberty hit Hemmings like a train. No longer the cute, adorable 14 year old. Oh no. Lucifer was morphed by the great puberty gods into one of the worlds most attractive human beings. Ever.

==Music career==
Due to their [[youtube]] success, 5 Seconds of Summer gained themselves a team. This team is actually a strong, extended family, who go simply by the name of "The 5SOS fam" .<ref name="5SOS Fan Interview">{{cite news |title=5SOS Fan Interview |author=Kent Small |url=http://www.kentsmall.com/5sos-fan-interview/ |date=October 23, 2013 |accessdate=19 February 2014}}</ref> A few years after their debut on [[youtube]] as a band, singing "Teenage Dirtbag" and "Year 3000", they created a small EP called ''Somewhere New'' This was actually the band's second EP, however, they don't like to mention the first one.<ref name="Itunes Preview">{{cite news |title=Itunes Preview |url=https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/somewhere-new-ep/id579411999/ |accessdate=19 February 2014}}</ref> However, this EP was the EP that then went to number 4 on the [[Australian Charts]]. Then in 2012, they announced that they would be touring with Hot Chelle Rae on their summer tour round Australia. On this tour, puberty hadn't really hit any of the band. Aside from Michael.. who was probably getting all the ladies with his advanced ways. <ref name="the hot hits">{{cite news |title=5 SECONDS OF SUMMER JOIN HOT CHELLE RAE'S AUSTRALIAN TOUR |url=http://www.thehothits.com/news/34218/5-seconds-of-summer-join-hot-chelle-rae%27s-australian-tour/ |accessdate=19 February 2014}}</ref>
Since forming 5 Seconds of Summer, they have been on tour with One Direction,<ref name=thehotits>{{cite news |title=5 SECONDS OF SUMMER SET TO SUPPORT ONE DIRECTION ON THEIR WORLD TOUR!|url=http://www.thehothits.com/news/37814/5-seconds-of-summer-set-to-support-one-direction-on-their-world-tour%21- |date=1 April 2013 |accessdate=11 February 2014}}</ref> almost doubling their fanbase, created an EP called "Somewhere New",<ref name=songlist>{{cite news |title= Somewhere New Songlist|url=http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/5-Seconds-Of-Summer-Somewhere-New-Album/16D11BF61910F0FF48257B06003D5C89- |date=1 April 2013 |accessdate=11 February 2014}}</ref> and created their first ever single "Out of my Limit". They also released other singles such as "Heartbreak Girl", "Try Hard", "Beside You", and "Wherever You Are". Somewhere along the line, Luke decided to turn badass and pierced his lip. He suits it, and the fans adore it. No. Wonder. Oosh.<ref name=thehotits>{{cite news |title= New Single She Looks So Perfect is Out!|url=http://www.thehothits.com/news/37814/5-seconds-of-summer-set-to-support-one-direction-on-their-world-tour%21- |date=1 April 2013 |accessdate=11 February 2014}}</ref> In 2014, they have completed a UK tour, and are currently, on tour in North America for their "Stars, Stripes and Maple Syrup".,<ref name=thehotits>{{cite news |title= 5SOS announce North American tour. Awoo|url=http://www.sugarscape.com/main-topics/music/1019361/5sos-announce-north-american-tour-awoo- |date=19 February 2014 |accessdate=20 February 2014}}</ref> going to places such as [[San Francisco]], [[Los Angeles]], [[Dallas]], Chicago Illinois, and even [[Toronto]].<ref>{{cite news |title= Buzz Bites: 5 Seconds Of Summer Are Coming To America|url=http://buzzworthy.mtv.com/2014/02/19/5-seconds-of-summer-north-american-tour/ |date=19 Feb 2011 |accessdate=20 February 2014}}</ref> Afterwards, they'll be heading home to the land of sun see, and pretty dudies also known as Australia to tour for their "There's No Place Like Home Tour". 5 Seconds of Summer will be joining One Direction once again during the "Where We Are" tour this year. (Although, the whole world would rather they toured with All Time Low than the poppy dudes that are 1D, let's be honest here.)

In conclusion, Lucifer Hemmings is a very attractive Australian who is living it up in 5SOS, touring the world and having the time of his life. He is 80% legs, and he likes food alot. He is a messy person, who when he showers, manages to get water all over the place. He is a single pringle, but not your average pringle. No no, he is super insanely talented, and although he claims he's unlucky with girls, we all know that he could get any girl he wanted dropping at his feet in seconds.
