Shawn Mendes is a Canadian singer and songwriter best known for his early exposure on the video platform Vine and for hit songs such as "Stitches" and "There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back."
Shawn Peter Raul Mendes was born on August 8, 1998, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, to Karen and Manuel Mendes. He was raised in Pickering, Ontario, alongside his younger sister, Aaliyah. During his formative years, Mendes attended Pine Ridge Secondary School where he was involved in various extracurricular activities including soccer, ice hockey, and acting classes. Although he left school to pursue his music career, he continued his studies through online courses and graduated with his class in June 2016.
Mendes began gaining attention in 2013 by posting cover songs on the video-sharing app Vine. His performances quickly amassed a large following, which eventually led to a record deal. In 2014, at the age of 15, he released his debut single "Life of the Party," which entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 24—making him the youngest artist to debut in the Top 25 with a first single.
Although he was often compared to fellow Canadian pop star Justin Bieber, Mendes' music is more aligned with the acoustic-pop style of Ed Sheeran, one of his musical inspirations. He soon began writing original music, developing a distinctive sound that resonated with fans around the world. His subsequent releases, including platinum-selling singles and albums, solidified his presence in the industry. Mendes has toured extensively, serving as an opening act for Taylor Swift as well as headlining his own successful tours.
Shawn Mendes' commercial success has led to a substantial net worth, estimated to be in the tens of millions. He is recognized for both his musical talent and his mass appeal, supported by a loyal global fanbase. In addition to his music career, Mendes is also known for his philanthropic initiatives and brand endorsements, which have further elevated his public image.
Mendes has often been the subject of public speculation regarding his personal relationships. In 2018, he made headlines when he attended the Met Gala alongside model Hailey Baldwin. Although their appearance sparked dating rumors, both parties clarified that their relationship was purely platonic. Baldwin later married Justin Bieber.
Another high-profile rumored relationship involved singer Camila Cabello. The two collaborated on the hit single "Señorita" in 2019, and their chemistry in the accompanying music video fueled widespread speculation about their romantic involvement. Though they initially described their relationship as close friendship, they confirmed they were dating later that year, though the relationship ended in 2021. Mendes has generally kept his romantic life private, and as of now, he is not known to be married or to have children.
