usually have my laptop here and I'll just kind of like write a lyric let's say it was like your lips are like pink flowers then I would write you lift like pink flowers lyrics and then I would kind of I'll find like all my lyrics cuz they're all saved under the lyric Oh dad and so then I just have a bunch of a bunch of those ideas on my laptop Wow go and digitized go and digitize and then I just kind of try and find a some chord progression that sounds like what I'm trying to say how do you know when a song is finished you just know it's like falling in love you just know when you love that person you know it's like you can feel when the puzzles fit together and it's perfect and you've captured everything you've kept you painted everything like a you know like a perfect picture and and then you can tell when it's off and you need to work more on it do you get more attached to some songs over others absolutely which ones on my last album first man oh yeah now based on your tour and your latest album romance you've been thinking a lot about romance is that right I've always been thinking a lot about romance def definitely a hopeless romantic I love love do you think you have to be in love to write good love songs um not necessarily but I think when you're in love the detail that you get in the song this is just you can't nobody can make that up in their imagination you know the way the person's shirt smelled the expression on their face you know the the way the sky looked that night it's like those details have to come from real life speaking of romance what's the most romantic trait that a guy can have kindness I'm a sucker for just a kind good man and what's the most romantic thing does have been done for you a lady never tells oh you got away from now on kamila obviously your songs are so personal yeah what's the most meaningful song oh I'm definitely first man because it's a song I wrote about my dad and I remember just crying writing it picturing his face the whole day and speaking of that song I saw your performance at the Grammys oh you killed it Thanks and it was so special to see you sing dear dad like that Thanks it felt really special did he have any idea you were gonna do that he didn't know until the day before and he was still nervous we did the red carpet together and he was like literally slapping himself in the face like taking deep breaths my dad is like he is not like that so I was like I couldn't believe I was like oh my god he was he was so nervous my mom and dad are both really camera shy so I'm surprised my mom it's how nervous were you before singing to him I get so nervous before every award show I get so nervous too after every performance I get acid reflux so bad that I can't stand up but honestly when I saw him sitting there I was like man nothing else here really matters but me telling my dad how much I love him in front of everybody like I just so this is about him this isn't even about me or the Grammys

absolute dream is to you know have to do have to you know make an inspiration playlist full of Disney songs to get ready for I mean how amazing is that I want to live in that world all the time one another you're living in this world can you give me your best British accent I don't know what do you think I mean I feel like British people would say it's rubbish but I think I've watched maybe enough Harry Potter to maybe slightly get away with it I don't know regardless of what the Brits say I think that's on their head thank you good thing I'm not doing a British accent Dylan can you tell me something about you that people do not know oh I can tell you three things I don't know why I'm still speaking up okay okay okay um I actually eat a banana with every single meal it doesn't matter what it is doesn't matter if it's pasta a sandwich rice and beans scrambled eggs pancakes Pizza he bananas with everything I can only sleep with socks on because I feel like the boogeyman will lick my feet if not and I I had to take in the third grade where I couldn't stop learning my nostrils and that I have never confessed publicly before it will have a notice don't worry oh well I I don't do it anymore okay Casey something not about you that a lot of people don't know oh I learned this today horses sleep standing up oh that is so interesting crazy right let's go out let's go out there after

okay go to dessert order a chocolate cake anything chocolate podcasts or audiobooks ah are your looks mystery work tick tock tick tock cuz there's really funny videos on there who's our music icon um Madonna Michael Jackson Prince you know the undeniable obvious ones do you remember the first song you memorize all the lyrics to Cinderella by the teeter girls and who would you say were your earliest inspirations um I was a huge Disney Channel fan so you know when we got cable TV after we didn't have cable TV I was like Disney Channel's the greatest thing ever in the entire world which it is and was but you know Cheetah Girls High School Musical Hannah Montana is really the reason that I'm here I was like I was like in my own Disney Channel movie in my bathroom all the time we are getting super countryside with bucolic ponds it's really beautiful right that that plant is not real I wish it was I got here and I was like I'm pretty sure I'm in Pandora in Avatar but it is beautiful right it is when did you know that you wanted to be a performer honestly the day that I auditioned for x-factor because before that that was the first time I ever really performed in front of a large group of people I was so shy I didn't even perform both in front of my family before then and that was the first time I was like oh this is kind of cool like I can do this without passing it didn't seem like that was your first time yeah what is the hardest part about performing to a live audience um working through nerves and making nerves your friend and making them turning them into fuel has been something that I've really learned to do the past few years because I I definitely like I told you I still get super super nervous because I care something so much about it so like really getting that under control how to survive of an audience affect your performance it's everything I mean I feel like I've performed in both extremes I've performed in front of an audience that absolutely did not care about me and in the beginning I was like but then you're like you know what I'm gonna try and connect with it with everybody here and just and and do my best but then it's like when I'm performing for my fans on tour that they're like they're you know that I feel so much love from them and they're like singing the lyrics and they're crying and I'm like everybody hears my family and we're all one and I love the best euphoric what's the most memorable fan interaction that you've ever had in your life ooh recently I was in a meet-and-greet and I was talking to one of my fans her name is Steph she was going through a really bad you know painful period of anxiety and actually at the time I was going to appear really bad period of anxiety too and we were talking about it and I just remember hugging her and I was crying and we were like I just felt really you know connected with her and few months later she told me that she was doing a lot better and now I'm doing a lot better too and just having an honest conversation about that I just felt like you know it's like one of those moments where I was you know really connect connecting you're someone that's really really sweet um wait can I show you something really cool yeah let's do it come here okay Gryffindor Slytherin Gryffindor and I definitely rigged all the Harry Potter quizzes to get Gryffindor even though I know I'm a Hufflepuff okay couple puffs are good to Rachel or Phoebe Phoebe is sweeter witty so litany I don't know we got a big both I heard that you don't curse it for any audiences tell me why because my sister's 10 years younger than me and when I started this I was 15 and she was five and you know obviously she's around me when I'm working a lot and singing you know singing my songs and I just didn't want to I just didn't I don't know I'm just really mindful of her and therefore like oh my kid audience it's just a personal choice for just wanna yeah what's your favorite curse word anyway okay what are you show me do you want to see it look there's koi fish in this pond oh did you see them over there go on did you know that koi fish live to be 200 years old you are full of trivia especially if you feed them you want to eat them oh my god I've never done this before yeah most one two three first Peter yeah okay Mila I heard that you were really shy as a child oh yeah oh my god yeah I would literally I would cry when people sang happy birthday to me I was so everyone I would go to family parties and get so overwhelmed that I just started crying well you overcame that pretty well well I still kind of do it by Anna but it's uh I keep on wanting to control what's getting but what give you the courage to sing in spite of a social anxiety like that I think it's just because honestly it's just what I love to do most in the world and I was like well if I want to do this and I need to overcome this then you know I feel like I feel like I have like I think that I'm introverted by nature and can still get a little bit shy sometimes but I think that's normal and something that you could totally you know you could totally control yeah whose work has really really made a profound impact on you ooh um Beyonce I spent the last whole year before every performance I would listen to homecoming and just watching that documentary it just felt so meaningful and important and connected to humanity and what's and what's you know what's what's real in the world and I was just really inspired by her strength yeah and yeah I think that she's incredible do you ever read press about yourself absolutely not never I would never nobody could ever make me make me do it by my wife okay they just heard to just sit you know it's it it hurts my soul and I know that I want to be happy and if I want to be myself and stay like you stay true to myself and true to people I know that I can't read those things about myself because how could it not hurt what everybody and anybody know it's true what's the thing that you're most proud of off stage I think I'm most proud of off stage I think that I have I think that the most important thing to me is to do the right thing and do the good thing and I feel like I have a good sense of like I think that's the only thing that matters to me in the world even if I'm unsuccessful and fail at everything if I know that I'm you know treating people the right way and doing you know following kind of my my my morals then I feel you know I feel proud of myself as a person now you spoken directly to dreamers from the stage yeah what's something you want dreamers and immigrants to hear today that you are not alone and that you are supported and and heard and seen by a lot of people and besides that issue what's a cause that's near and dear to your heart the earth and climate change and everything that's going on right now and and just being you know just what what that's gonna do in the future generations oh my god do you want to have some time with me I'll access T oh my gosh it's so British of you I know so you actually the English breakfast would be the British thing that's right of me but chamomile is kind of my favorite not gonna lie okay oh my god what there's dust over there there's a family of ducks oh my god okay oh my gosh here's the truth right I came I came into this house and they were like

not sign up for the sky you want to talk about shine that they're shy okay Wow oh that was really cool though huh beautiful it's kind of magical okay we have to get back to the questions okay Oh sweating dress up a dresser pants your mini our maxi ah maxi okay actually leather lace lace would you rather swim in a beach or do you imagine yourself skiing in the Alpine honestly no I'm from Miami and even this being outside fully bundle is too cold for me alright whose fashion advice do you listen to before anyone else my mom's cuz she always tells me when I look like a homeless person when I'm leaving the house and she's like you can't do that who's a favorite designer uh I like Chanel which artist's style do you most admire Rihanna and I bet even Rihanna would say Rihanna alright you have any Goodluck charms Eugene Fitzherbert my dog Oh your dog yes yeah I could have read it of dog is he uh he is a okay here's through he's a Pomeranian and I usually always always always like big dogs but he kind of won my heart can I meet him he's not here he's in Miami what a bummer I know that's a very unique name for a dog Thanks and eugene is named after a Disney character yes thank the prince from tangled whose name is Flynn Ryder but secretly his name is Eugene Fitzherbert and I always want to name my dog's Disney characters thank you for clarifying that absolutely hey we should get some good cold yep okay so besides tea what are the British customs have you become familiar with have you ever had a digestive it's like a really famous British cookie and it has chocolate on one side it's really good we're gonna have that with our two right now dip it it melts in your mouth it's incredible also Cadbury's him a lot chocolates on you and sister clip buttons are really good fish and chips dunked in a lot of vinegar and that's what they don't tell you that got a Dunkin and vinegars Nando's with peri-peri sauce I'm moving here you are loving it here I love it alright but besides England um what uh what country has the best cuisine um I think Italy yeah I just love to pig out over some Italian food it's so actually one of the most glorious things in the world to me horse eye and what's on a Camila Cabello curated menu I would say breakfast huge breakfast pancakes chilaquiles you know all of that stuff lunch Cuban food rights plantains dinner huge time food lots of cheese Mexican Cuban Italian Indian those are my favorite foods right now alright now I notice you're selling yeah so what to get it just forget I said just edit that out why are you selling to Muller it's actually movie prep and you will know you saw the movie I won't say anything else you've already heard a lot through that blogs you've gotten 73 peers of information all right so what are you most excited about in this role tell me that Cinderella inspires me I love living in her magical world where she believes in dreams and she believes in love and she believes in everything good because I want to be like that I want to be that as much as I can what do you most have in common with Cinderella I think just that I think that we we want to see the magic in life and we will relentlessly keep fighting for for our dreams I don't think we have enough mom in this episode so you know I agree what questions should ask your daughter sweet mama what is your favorite thing about our relationship Oh everything about our relationship is that your I mean she is my best friend and that you are I always say this but you're the better half of my brain and I I just feel like I want to if I can get to where you are as a woman I will be really happy in life because I think that you're so strong and so kind and so grounded and what's important and at the same time so like so full of hope and I think that you're really magical and not to get email but I will but yeah I love you love you bro that is so sweet you're definitely selling that to wipe the tears off in my face yeah what's the biggest lesson that you've learned from your mother my the biggest lesson I would say above all she's always reminded me that we only have one life and that it's your job to fight for your happiness it's your responsibility to fight for your happiness and nobody and nothing will do that for you you have to fight for it yourself and so yeah I think that's the biggest lesson but obviously I get one every 20 minutes because that's how often I have my nervous breakdowns as a 23 year old well then it blows my mind is that you're an international pop star but you're also one of the most donors people thanks how how do you pull that off I really think I just got lucky with uh just I'm surrounded by people that like I said just keep me close to what's real and keep me you know like the John Mayer song where the light is and you know it's it's it's human sometimes to fall off that path and to you know get caught up in things that that don't matter and aren't real but what's real is really love and and and doing and being good to people and that's very simple and I think that the people around me constantly remind me that and are and are keeping me in that direction and make me motivated to stay in that in that direction the future of music videos have over a billion views as one seventh of the planet so do you feel how does it make you feel when you look at these view accounts it's weird I mean it's crazy because I just think of myself as a little girl and I would never picture me being able to do something like that so it just goes to show you shy kids you can do anything here that shy kids yes okay now your upbringing split your time between Cuba and Mexico City yeah how did you feel about moving back and forth so much going up um well I don't remember because I was so young but I asked my mom this the other day and she was like yeah I remember you feeling sad because you would be surrounded by a group of people in Cuba and then we would have to leave to Mexico and you wouldn't see them again so I imagine that it was kind of kind of hard for me but yeah cause I'm a school bonad 80 Wow you like that very impressive now go so masculine and me estoy muy gotta know some way and Somoza very like a koala I want to cuddle things don't des koalas la cosa más mexicana de cosas más mexicana when me miss until more last question question number 73 I'm so sorry this is breaking me : but breaking me correspond to men alright last question yeah what are the chances of me getting a cameo in Cinderella do you think hey I wish I could do that free man I wish I could but you know what I can do yeah I could take you on the docks are back oh I could take you on I could take you on the set of Cinderella and we could see the Ducks before we go okay off to see the Ducks let's go let's go bring this out yes going up we go we go so you know

Why is there a 60% upvote rate lol does popheads really dislike Camila that much

[u/natimoli]

I looooove when she speaks spanish.

[u/[deleted]]

She’s cute I feel like her outgoing/extra personality is misunderstood. Like she’s clearly sarcastic in a lot of these clips and joking around w the cameraman but watch stan twitter make 10 viral hate tweets about how she’s unbearable..

[u/1000_nights]

This was great, she's so likeable.

[u/Whyamievenhere24]

Camilas last vogue getting ready with went pretty big. I'm excited to see this one

[u/FreebieFresh]

that intro is so agonizingly staged I love it

edit: she acts and sounds so much like a professor I have that I can't stand yikes.

[u/MasterTeacher123]

She’s so cute

[u/liberderci]

does this mean she's getting a vogue cover? or do they give these interviews to anyone?

[u/KLJohnnes]

Did they asked if she was racist?
