Shawn Mendes Names His Celebrity Crush But It’s Not Camila Cabello

Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello are rumored to be dating. But during a recent Q&A with a fan, the male singer revealed the identity of his long-time crush, and it’s not Cabello.

After the fan asked the “Treat You Better” who his crush is, Mendes thought about his answer for a few seconds before dropping Emma Watson’s name. “I really just do love Emma Watson still!” he said. “I’ll tell her that. When I met her, I was really embarrassed,” he added.

Three years ago, Mendes also declared his love for the “Harry Potter” actress. On Twitter, the “Stitches” crooner tagged Watson after telling her that he loves her. But despite his fondness for the actress, Mendes still hasn’t followed Watson on her social account on Instagram.

During his appearance on James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke,” Mendes once again talked about his crush. He said that he actually met Watson once, and he was really starstruck.

“I was definitely sweating a bit, but I think I played it cool. I think it was good,” he said.

Meanwhile, Mendes and Cabello are being linked to each other after they released their new song, “Senorita.” On Instagram, Mendes also wrote the word “mom” on one of Cabello’s posts. This led fans to believe that the two are really dating.

On the same day that “Senorita” was released, US Weekly also reported that Cabello split from her boyfriend, Matthew Hussey. Also on the same day, Cabello uploaded a behind-the-scene clip from the making of her latest song.

The video shows her and Mendes screaming at the top of their lungs and letting some energy out during rehearsals. “This is basically how I’m handling all of my feelings from now on and hope it all works out,” she captioned the clip and tagged Mendes.

A fan-made account that was initially thought to be Cabello’s mom’s Instagram commented on the post with a pink heart emoji. A second comment was also posted by the same user, and it showed a boy and a girl emoji. But according to Bustle, this wasn’t really Cabello’s mom.
