Camila Cabello is perhaps more relatable than we previously thought, as she has admitted to sliding into Drake's DM's.
The 27-year-old popstar burst onto the scene after appearing on X Factor USA as part of girl group, Fifth Harmony.
The band later split in 2018 after Camila expressed a want to pursue a solo career, but Camila continued making headlines when embarking on a romance with fellow musician Shawn Mendes before their split in 2021.
It seems Camila is holding nothing back lately when reflecting on the men in her life.

During a recent appearance on podcast The Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard, Camila opened up about losing her virginity aged 20 to her ex, life coach, YouTuber and writer Matthew Hussey.
She said: "I had my first relationship at that time," she said. "I had actually listened to [Hussey's] podcast before…because he had, like, a dating podcast. And he is married now, so congratulations!"
She continued: "It was late for my first relationship. I was 20.
"That was my first time having sex. First lovemaking was at 20, 21. … It was literally lovemaking. It was beautiful."
Despite some fans proclaiming that might be a little bit too much information, I really respect how open she is about her life.
The same thing can definitely be said about shooting her shot and sliding into rapper Drake's DM's.
The two sparked dating rumours last year when they were photographed on a jet ski together in Turks & Caicos.
Yet it has now been revealed that people were perhaps too hasty when believing the rumours.
In reality, Camila hit Drake up for a feature on her album.
She told Billboard: “He’s the f*****ng GOAT [greatest of all time], so it felt like shooting for the stars.
“I showed him the album when I felt comfortable enough and he really liked it. [The feature] came out of a nontransactional place. He had this idea of a song called ‘Hot Uptown,’ and it just felt like I was in the city. I was in Miami.”
But their collaboration didn't stop there - Drake also features on her track 'Uuugly'.
She said: "He wanted to do one more thing for the album.”
She then continued: “Why does he have his own song? Because selfishly, I just want to hear Drake on my own album.
“I love that for me - it’s like that rebellious mood. Who says I can’t do that? It’s Drake talking his s**t.”
Good for her!
