Camila Cabello Beams in ‘Bustle’ / Talks Taylor Swift, Battling Body Shamers, & Wanting to Go to College

Published: Wednesday 18th Aug 2021 by Rashad

With a new single booming at radio (‘Don’t Go Yet’), a September 3-due movie charging to screens via Amazon Prime (‘Cinderella’), a forthcoming stint on ‘The Voice,’ and a new album nearing completion (‘Familia’), expect to see much of Camila Cabello over the coming weeks in support of the endeavors.

Having already hit the ground running with recent interviews in print, radio, and TV via iHeartRadio, Entertainment Tonight, Apple Music, and many others over the last few weeks alone, the GRAMMY nominee was most recently spotted acting as the cover girl of the latest edition of ‘Bustle.’

When not rocking Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton, and Calvin Klein inside the mag’s pages (under the lens of famed photographer Emman Montalvan), Cabello was dropping quotes about her friend Taylor Swift, battling body shamers, and so much more.

See highlights below:

CABELLO ON THE DIFFICULTY OF MAINTAINING FRIENDSHIPS:

“I’ve been [working] since I was 15. I’ve been traveling so much, and it’s been really hard for me to water the soil for friendships,” the 24-year-old singer told the outlet. “It’s hard for me to get close to people.”

CABELLO ON WHY HER MOM IS HER BEST FRIEND:

“[My mom and I] would always, after work, go to dinner. Go get sushi together, go for a walk,” Cabello recalls. “It was always me and my mom. Probably to the extreme. Because I never had any friends.”

CABELLO ON TAYLOR SWIFT:

“Taylor has always been so kind and supportive and also goes out of her way to give you artist advice,” Cabello gushed. “[She’s] really about making friendships and relationships the most important thing. She is so brave at watering those seeds of friendships and relationships.”

Continuing, Camila revealed:

“[Taylor] always answers my texts and she’s so busy. I don’t even answer texts because I’m just worse at it. It takes intention to be like, ‘Let me write all my friends back.’”

CAMILA ON WHY HER RELATIONSHIP WITH SHAWN MENDES WORKS:

“I probably have a nurturing attitude because I also like being nurtured. I’m lucky that my partner is the same way,” Cabello said of their relationship. “There’s a lot of sweetness and tenderness. I think we’re both sensitive. I’m really lucky to be able to surround myself with tenderness; it’s really important to me.”

CAMILA ON BATTLING BODY SHAMERS:

“Being at war with your body is so last season,” she said addressing her recent viral Tik Tok response to body shamers. “I actually feel my body insecurities went down after I posted that because I was like, ‘No matter what pictures come out or what people say, I’m now controlling the narrative.’”

CAMILA ON WORKING WITH BILLY PORTER IN ‘CINDERELLA’:

“I was so intimidated by [Billy] because I was like, ‘You’re so talented, you have such a big soul, a big energy about you,’” Cabello says. “I told him that. And he was so vulnerable, so sweet, and just a very real person. By the end of it, we really connected. He was like, ‘I want to be your [Fab G] in real life.’”

CAMILA ON WANTING TO GO TO COLLEGE:

“I love information. I feel I would have had so much fun in college. Maybe I would have also been crushed under homework, but I do love learning. I love reading… I’d love to go to NYU in person and study some cool things,” she revealed.

    Bustle? Chile, not Camila covering Bustle. I didn’t even know they do magazines.

    I really don’t get all the hate and unnecessary personnel comments people leave on this site constantly debating Camila vs Normani. At the end of the day none of these Fifth Harmony girls are dominating the charts with huge hits and album sales. They should really just reunite then release a dope revealing documentary followed by a creative album with every members imput. Sadly they’re attitudes and egos won’t allow them to realize this until their mid 30’s and 40’s when its too late.

      U want Camila to leave her 2 number 1 songs, 17 billboard hot 100 entries, 3 grammy nominations, 2 platinum albums etc and go back to a girl group that had only 1 top 10 hit?
      😂😂😂😂

      Let me remind u, Camila left that group, the other 4 girls didnt.they stayed in the group.

      And this is why Camila has ambition, while the other 4 girls dont.

      In future, I can see normani and the other 3 girls reuniting, doing a small tour, etc .

      As for Camila, never gonna happen.
      Going back to 5th harmony will be a huge downgrade for Camila.

      • Clarks0o00ñ August 18, 2021

      • Becky Goodhair August 18, 2021

        You mean Camilla is to 5th Harmony what Timberlake is to *NSYNC? 😊

        *runs to download “Worth It” and “Work From Home”*

    That’s the difference between Camila and Normani. Camila is always so humble and down to Earth, whereas Normani is far too arrogant and stuck-up. “I’m that biitch,” “I know I’m the shiit” etc etc, she’s too much. You can see who the real cunnt in the band was. And the way she tried to derail Camila’s career by throwing her under the bus over alleged comments.

    (Yes, I’m back 💋)

    • Gag August 18, 2021

      Well y’all call l” Normani Teri me things all day in this site for no reason as of Camila knows it gives af about you or Clarkson lmao..so since y’all 2 pusswads do that Normani can call herself what she wants to empower HERSELF…so f*** off with your hating ass

    Who the f** does she think she is?

    “I don’t have time to text my friends back”

    Self absorbed b******. 😂

    If Taylor has time to give people advice, and she can literally buy you 50x over , you definitely have time. You’re not busy.

    This is why she’s flopping now. Stop name dropping Taylor. She’s only being nice to you as she is polite to everyone.

    • Riribadgal August 18, 2021

      …. And you are Normanly stan and you have opinion like this? Lmfaooooo 😂🤣😂

    • Keeping it real 💯💯 August 18, 2021

      It’s normani who flopping.
      she thinks motivation was a cultural reset lmao 🤣
      she keeps seeking attention like now all this talk about how she was over looked in the group. Funny how she says this after her cardi feat. Flopped.
      She full of her self just like Kanye who also a Gemini
      She needs to humble herself.

      • Dc August 18, 2021

        Normani new song peaked at 14 Camilla new song peaked outside top 40 now 66 hot 100 who flopped ????????

      • Clarks0o00ñ August 18, 2021

        Normanis new song outpeaked beyonce’s new song mood forever, so according to ur logic, normani is better than beyonce? 😂
        Dumb àss

        Camila has 2 number 1 songs, and normani?

        No album out after 4 years of going solo
        😂😂😂

        Now shes financing her career herself with her own money like an indie artist even tho she’s signed to a big label. 😂

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 August 18, 2021

  5. RBRT August 18, 2021

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 August 18, 2021

      Clarkson is the top, Nicky is the messy bottom

  6. Farrahs Luggage August 18, 2021

    She’s always trying to ride Taylor’s coattails. No girl, you’re on your third album, stand on your own H-O-E!!!

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 August 18, 2021

      Biitch SHUT the F**** UP! You are IRRELEVANT!

    • Clarks0o00ñ August 18, 2021

      Camila is friends with Taylor, but has she collaborated with Taylor? NO

      Normani is friends with, nicki, megan, cardi, and she has collaborated with all 3 rap girls

      So who cant stand on their own?
      😂
