Camila Cabello has touched the lives of her fans through her music, but this week she paused the tunes to share an important body positivity message on TikTok – and that’s not the only gem on her page.
WATCH: Camila Cabello performs ‘Easy’ on SNL.
In the TikTok the Havana singer is sitting in her car in a sports bra and leggings when she begins her astute speech.
She started her story by sharing, “I am wearing a top that shows my belly, and I wasn’t tucking it in.
“Because I was running and existing like a normal person that doesn’t tuck it in all the time. And I was like ‘DAMN.’ But then I reminded myself, being at war with your body is so last season.”
We concur! RIP body negativity.
“I am grateful for this body that lets me do what I need to do, we are real women, with curves and cellulite and stretch marks and fat,” she continued.
“And we gotta own that baby,” she adds. Before she breaks out into song to belt, “Givin him something he can feel.”
This is in no way the first time that the 24-year-old has spoken out against toxic body negativity.
In 2019, she posted an Instagram story of herself preaching empowerment to her fans after being a victim of body-shaming by the media.
She shared, “Honestly first thing I felt was super insecure just IMAGINING what these pictures must look like, oh no! My cellulite! Oh no! I didn’t suck in my stomach!” Camila had written in her posts. “But then I was like… of course there are bad pictures, of course there are bad angles, my body’s not made of fucking rock, or all muscle, for that matter, but the saddest part of young girls growing up in an airbrushed world is they’re seeking a perfection that’s not real.”
Watch Camila’s incredible speech below.
The Cinderella actor has other nuggets of TikTok gold, which will make you feel equally pumped up – girl, really knows how to get the laughs too.
Camila proved that you either laugh or cry when she posted about losing your 20s to the pandemic in another relatable video.
A testament that many 20-year-olds and teenagers will understand better than they would like because we can think of thousands of things that we would prefer to relate with a celebrity over like living in a mansion.
In the TikTok, the camera is on Camila’s face with a voice-over saying, “Being in your 20s trying to figure out being an adult while the planet is literally boiling alive, and a pandemic takes away your freedom and collective joy.”
Her most unexpected post includes a hilarious real-life story that happened to the singer when she sent her producer a picture of her sick vocal cords.
Basically, the punchline is that his wife saw the picture and maybe watch the video below to see why she freaked out.
Of course, Camila can add comedian to her resume after she posted a video with artist Calvit Hodge.
In the TikTok, they start in their own outfits before swapping clothes with hilarious effect – there is a reason this trend never gets old.
Lastly, fans will love this video of Camilla in dance rehearsals stabbing negative words like “anxiety, emotional eating, negative self-talk and deadlines” with her deadly prop.
Oh, Camila, please never change.
