Are Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello dating? The BFFs get close on the 4th of July


JULY 4, 2019 6:00 PM EDT

Are Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello dating? Fans think signs point to yes after they were pictured together on what looked like a date, then were also spotted cuddling up at a 4th of July party the following day. The Señorita singers are both single, of course, since 22-year-old Camila split from her boyfriend Matthew Hussey earlier this month.

ET Canada has photos of the ex-Fifth Harmony star and Shawn looking like they just might be a couple, stepping out hand-in-hand in West Hollywood. While that outing could have just been BFFs having a special moment, it looked a bit more like romance on Independence Day, when they were spotted poolside at a July 4th bash. In a short video shared on social media, Camila embraces Shawn from behind as they cozy up far away from fellow party goers.

The two have been longtime friends since 2014, a year before they teamed up on I Know What You Did Last Summer. "I really love Shawn as a person and he’s always been there for me. I’m lucky I found someone like that early on when I started this," Camila said in a live chat recently. But the pals' chemistry was undeniable after they got steamy in a video for their latest hit Señorita.

The sexy clip for the song shows the pair – she plays a diner waitress and he steps into the role of a motorcycle riding bad boy – in some pretty passionate moments, from dancing together at a club to a bedroom love scene that takes place in a hotel.
