Shawn Mendes Shares His Biggest Fear About His Relationship With Camila Cabello

In June 2021, Shawn Mendes told People about a moment with Camila Cabello that scared him. The "Wonder" singer recalled getting into an argument with Cabello and ultimately yelling at her, which he admitted bothered her. "I raised my voice at her and she was like, 'I don't like it when you raise your voice. Why did you raise your voice?'" he explained. "And I got so defensive." 

Mendes goes on to share how it made him feel to be the person in the wrong. "I was like, 'I wasn't raising my voice at you!' And I did raise my voice at her. And then I felt her shrink and I felt me grow and I was like, 'Oh god, this is the worst.'" Mendes added that he is worried about his behavior in general, noting, "I'm so terrified of being evil. I'm so scared to be bad. I don't want to be bad."

Luckily, the two were able to get past the moment. "Maybe there even is bad inside of me, and I have to just accept that that exists. And that other part of me, he's just got to be here and we've just got to work together until eventually he gets worked in all of the trauma and all of the kinks get rubbed out of him and he's okay."
