Camila Cabello

Karla Camila Cabello Estrabao is a Cuban-American singer born on March 3, 1997, in Cojímar, La Habana, Cuba. For the first five years of her life, Cabello lived in Cuba and Mexico before relocating to Miami, Florida. Cabello dropped out of her 2012/13 high school year to pursue a career in singing (although she did receive her diploma). For her quinceanera, Camila asked her parents to drive her to North Carolina, so she could audition for the second season of The X Factor US. Barely making it into the competition, she was granted an “alternate” role who was only able to audition if they had time. Eventually, she along with Dinah Jane Hansen, Ally Brooke Hernandez, Lauren Jauregui and Normani Kordei were tapped to form multi-platinum girl group, Fifth Harmony. The collective released many chart-toppers with the highest being “Work From Home” peaking at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. During this time, Cabello collaborated with Canadian artist Shawn Mendes on “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” as well as American rapper Machine Gun Kelly on “Bad Things,” which peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. She remained part of the group until the 19th of December 2016, where the four remaining members announced via their official Twitter account that Camila had decided to leave the group to pursue a solo career. Camila then confirmed this by posting a statement on her Twitter account. After the split, Camila released pop and dance-influenced debut single, “Crying in The Club” on May 19, 2017 and promotional single, “I Have Questions” two days later. The first 6 months of being a solo also allowed for features to occur: with Cashmere Cat’s “Love Incredible,” J Balvin and Pitbull’s “Hey Ma,” and Major Lazer’s “Know No Better” along with American rappers Travis Scott and Quavo. On July 20th, 2017 Cabello supported the North American leg of Bruno Mars’s “24K Magic World Tour.” Shortly after on August 4th, she released her “summer double features” “OMG” featuring Quavo, and her solo breakout hit, “Havana” featuring Young Thug. “Havana” was confirmed as a single from her self-titled debut album on August 30th, 2017 via Twitter. The song became a commercial and major success becoming her first #1 hit. The track was certified 5x platinum along with diamond certifications in Brazil and France—making Camila the fastest female artist born in the 90s to achieve a diamond certification, doing so in only 5 months. On December 4th, 2017, Camila had revealed she changed the title of her debut album from The Hurting, The Healing, The Loving. to Camila. Alongside that announcement, two singles from her album were released; “Real Friends” and “Never Be the Same” on December 7th. The following week “Crown,” a collaboration with Grey for Netflix’s Bright was dropped. January 12, 2018, marked the release of her solo debut project. Camila debuted at #1 in 100 different countries on iTunes, breaking the record for most #1’s for a debut album. Camila also reached a major milestone on January 21, debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart. Later on April 12, 2018, the album was certified platinum. 2018 saw a few more collaborations for Cabello, starting with the remix of her own hit “Never Be The Same” featuring country singer Kane Brown. “Sangria Wine” with Pharrell, who had worked on “Havana” with Cabello followed, released May 18th. The final three tracks from Cabello in 2018 were all remixes. Bazzi’s “Beautiful;” Cabello’s “Real Friends” featuring Swae Lee and an orchestral version of “Consequences” from Camila. In January of 2019, shortly after her debut’s anniversary, Camila revealed that she began writing for her second album. On June 3, 2019, she posted an Instagram story of a Dropbox folder named CC2, suggesting she had completed the album. A few days prior to this, Camila was featured on Mark Ronson’s track “Find U Again.” Later that month, Camila combined forces with Shawn Mendes once again to create “Señorita” which was accompanied by a steamy music video. Camila’s second album was announced in conjunction with the released of two singles, “Shameless” and “Liar.” Within the next five weeks, Camila released two more singles, “Cry for Me” and “Easy”, which she performed live during her Saturday Night Live debut on October 12, 2019. On November 13, 2019, Camila revealed the release date and album art for Romance, announcing that another single, “Living Proof” would be released later that week.
