Shawn Mendes is known as a Canadian singer and songwriter. He is most famous for getting exposure on Vine and for songs like "Stitches" and "There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back."
Shawn Peter Raul Mendes was born on August 8, 1998 in Toronto, Canada to Karen and Manuel Mendes. He and his younger sister, Aaliyah, experienced childhood in Pickering, Ontario, a Toronto suburb, where he went to Pine Ridge Secondary School. Among his extracurricular exercises, he played sports like soccer and ice hockey and also took acting classes. In spite of the fact that he left school to go on tour, he stayed aware of his homework duties by using online courses and had the chance to graduate with his class in June 2016.
After uploading his cover music to different video-sharing platforms, Mendes earned a strong fan following through his social media platforms. His ability, great looks and dedicated fan base immediately landed him a record contract. In 2014 his debut single, "Life of the Party," charted at No. 24 on the Billboard 100, making the then 15-year-old Mendes the most youthful artist to have a debut tune inside the Top 25.
In spite of the fact that he has been named "the following Justin Bieber", both are attractive, skillful and Canadian, his acoustic-driven and appealing melodies are progressively lined up with his idol Ed Sheeran's melodic style and Mendes immediately started to write his own tunes. His legion of fans bolstered his platinum-selling hits. He has had successful music tours, both as an opening act for Taylor Swift and as a main event.
For a considerable length of time, the singer was rumored to date Hailey Baldwin. In 2013, Hailey even tweeted that she needed to date Mendes when he was as yet a star on Vine. In 2018, the two strolled together on the Met Gala celebrity main street. They said it was just a friendly thing and they may have been coming clean, since now, Hailey is married to Justin Bieber.
There was a Camila Cabello rumor that Shawn never confirmed. For some time, fans believed that Cabello and Mendes were seeing each other, yet they, both said it was absolutely platonic. In February, bits of gossip surfaced that the two were a thing after Cabello posted a tweet talking about their lifelong friendship and how much she loved him. The rumors picked up more steam in June 2019 when the two appeared as lovers in a music video.
