As Camila Cabello gears up to make her feature film debut in the leading role of the now 2021-due ‘Cinderella’ reboot, she’s taken to ‘Wall Street Journal’ to confess her life is far from a fairy tale.

Penning a deeply personal essay for the publication to detail her battles with mental health (namely anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder), the award-winning singer-songwriter reveals her on-camera persona has differed from her true self in the past.
