Camila

Camila Cabello

Camila was born in Cuba, but when she was six, she moved to Miami. When she was ten, her little sister Sofia was born. In middle school, Camila figured out that she was a lesbian, but she didn’t come out to her family until she had started dating Lauren in her junior year of high school. After breaking up with Lauren and having a lot of time on her hands, Camila started uploading covers to YouTube, and it wasn’t until Camila and Shawn wrote IKWYDLS together that she blew up and became an internet sensation. She released her first EP (five songs, named Lonely) in May of 2016, her album CAMILA in January of 2018, and her second album Romance in December of 2019. She got back together with Lauren in January of 2018 and they’ve been together ever since, even though Camila’s publicly in a relationship with Shawn. She wants to come out and is patiently waiting for the day when she can, but her patience is running low.
