Phony Shawn Mendes

Do we need a new Shawn Mendes thread every fucking day???

OP, why are you so jealous and vicious, dude?

Yes, R1. Because DL is going to out the phony motherfucker.

R2/frau, because he's a phony bastard sending the message that it's ok to be a lying closeted fuck.

R4, mind your business, live and let live, bro.

OP, yeah, I saw that being discussed on Twitter a little while ago.

Turns out an Entertainment article was accidentally released saying Shawn & Camila were seen making out at the Awards Show, before the Awards Show has even taken place!

Seems like they've now taken it down.

Their passion for each other is so hot it defies the space-time continuum!

Another thread? Fuck off, fuckwit! You're the reason so many threads have become subscriber-only, asshole.

The main Shawn & Camila thread just closed at 600 replies, so it's okay for the OP to have started a new one.

I started a new one yesterday!

LEAVE SHAWN MENDES ALONE!!!! YOU'RE LUCKY HE EVEN PERFORMS FOR YOU BASTARDS!!!!!

LEAVE HIM ALONE!! HE'S ONLY HUMAN! HE JUST WANTS TO LIVE HIS LIFE!!!

LEAVE SHAWN ALONE, RIGHT NOW!!!!

*SOBS UNCONTROLABLY*

I didn’t need any more convincing that Caramello is a beard, but there you have it. Miss Mendes is a big old poof! x

This is pretty embarassing.

I fucked Shawn Mendes with this

DL can't handle so much passion!!!

I die inside a little every day.

R1 Until Muriel stops locking all of the other Shawn Mendes threads, new ones are going to spring up all the time. It started with the Senorita Shawn Mendes thread, which was the long running thread (up to 31 parts) where all the posters went, being locked. Now, instead of clearing bandwidth or getting people to pay for subscriptions, it's spawned hundreds of new threads which will end up being more work for the moderators here than to simply direct everyone to post all Shawn related content on one thread which would be easier to manage.

R10 That thread is subscription locked.

Hey Shawn, I was on Fallon last night. Though I was nervous, I did such a great job that Jimmy bowed before me like the gift to the world that I am. Isn't that awesome? Has Jimmy ever done that for you? Didn't think so. - -

I blame that loser Zac Stenmark for all this. If the dick was life-changing, as it should be for a gayling, then Shawn would be out there shouting his gayness from the rooftops. Zac should’ve turned the boy out properly when he had the chance. When you’ve got the first crack at that crack, make it count! Say what you will about Dustin Lance Black, aka The Grim Reaper, but at least he was able to drag his boy Tom Daley out the closet. If I had first dibs on Shawn, I’d have him crawling on his knees across the stage right in front of his adoring fans to get to my dick while I stood there waiting for him. Good dick puts these young boys in a trance when they finally get some.

Zac was too kind and gentle with me...I need somebody who fucks me hard and turns me into the big slut I know I am, R19....any offers?

Nice rear view on Shawn at R15.

Those Stenmark Twins look straight and thoroughly bro-ish on their IG. Where did the rumor start that they’d had Shawn?

John Mayer fucked that ass too.

Dumb bitch Muriel pay-walled the other thread, so this one is the go-to for now.

I'm a subscriber, but I don't understand the purpose of paywalling the threads. That was never done before.

It would make more sense to go back to Primetime for particular periods of the day, but not block whole threads for non-subscribers.

R22, the Stenmark Twins, particularly Zac, spend a lot of time with Shawn. If you look at the Shawn threads, Zac spends a lot of time socializing with Shawn whenever he is in the same city, and was at his 21st Birthday last month.

And according to one of the rumors from the Australian posters on the Shawn thread at LPSG, one of the Stenmark twins is gay and one is straight.

I do wish Muriel was more transparent about her means and ways of doing things. x

Shawn looks too skinny, while Skankmilla is getting wider by the day. She should only be given half a plate of food at dinner, and the rest should be given to him.

Yes, Shawn is a big boy.

Camila and I reading DL comments....also, hi Connor B 😘

R31 I'm surprised you're reading the comments here, Shawn. Wouldn't want to be having any more nights waking up in a cold sweat, now would we? - -

I love it when makes songs about me 💁🏻‍♂️ #shameless

[quote]"People can say whatever they want to say. We are going to live our own lives, enjoy it, and fall for each other like nobody is watching. I want it to be mine and [his]. That's why I'm so tight-lipped about it: because I want to protect it" — Camila on her relationship with Shawn

He is mine, bitches!!!!

R31, yo Alec, I don’t wake up in cold sweats anymore....camila is right here to hold me through the night 💜

She’s got a strange definition of “tight-lipped.”

R34 Nice finger clasp, Shawn. I wonder where I've seen that before? - -

[quote]She’s got a strange definition of “tight-lipped.”

Exactly.

If she wanted to be protective of their "relationship", why are they frolicking up & down the streets every day making out in front of the cameras?

"A sign that the relationship is serious -- Shawn carried Camila's bag".

LOL.

Listen to this media spin in the video at link:

How many of the people writing these stories know Shawn is gay?

Boring thread. We've seen all this before. Maybe he's gay, maybe he's straight. The world keeps spinning. It's up to the guy to live his life as he sees fit. There's a lot of feminine white guys out there now.

R32: Very appropiate title, because she is really shameless

Soundcheck kiss 😘

I drink his cum daily!

Peek-a-boo. My zipper is down in front of 53k fans...no biggie.

Did Shawn just receive a blowjob from Zac backstage, R45?

R18 You do look adorable. I wouldn't doing some bowing - stop over soon.

R31 It's so sweet of you to be concerned for him. If only poor Shawn had more people looking out for him.

R45 He was the 'opening act' backstage. Loose lips sink ships, and need diapers.

R47 I was watching the video of the performance we did together a while back tonight. It was such an honor to have my idol sing backup on my song and let me outshine you, even though I know you could have upstaged me, because you <3 me and wanted me to have all the attention. I remember you got an extra special blowjob that night with cum that I didint spit out afterward. Awesome memory! Speaking of which, I'm getting horny right now. Come over ASAP. The road can be so lonely and I need cum now. Yours specifically. :)

[Quote] It's so sweet of you to be concerned for him. If only poor Shawn had more people looking out for him.

Yeah, "concern." Let's go with that.

- -

R43 Ours was sexier. - -

God he's ugly. Every time I see him it boggles my mind. Every so often there's a guy famous mostly for his looks, and I can't fathom it. He's a horse-faced fug. Whatever looks he has will be gone by 30 because that face is only going to get longer, sag, and wrinkle.

Going down on him in front of 53k people

Mmmmmm sweaty!

R50 Yes, that was a good night. You were very talented and so hungry for ... success. I'll come over and do my best to give you what you need.

Yeah I'd call it concern - you're always giving Shawn such good advice, and showing him how to live a happier life, by your example. Also, I know his stress will go down as you unburden him of his fame.

Daddy's on his way, sweet boy.

Camila turned me on in front of 53k fans

R56 Do you like it when she fingers your ass? Bet you ask for more fingers, you dirty boy.

I can't watch the last post so i suppose is someone claiming Shawn's heterosexuality while trying to call the rest homophobic

R55

[Quote] unburden him of his fame

I like that phrase. I'm going to use that from now on as I become more popular than he is. - -

I was surprising to realize that Alec is doing well on Spain and Portugal, Let me down slowly is all over the radio there. I'm still angry the label didn't promote the song the right way in the USA when it was already selling without any radio play

Alec's label doesn't understand what they have with him.

R61 R62 I'd love it if Lizzo decided to feature him on a remix of one of her songs. It could be her second #1 and his first and would expose him to a vastly larger audience here in the states. They are both on the same label so I'm sure some of the A&R's there could set that up.

r61 they don't really understand talent, and also prefer whores (actual whores), so it makes sense they would fumble someone like Alec.

To be fair, Shawn's label did a ver poor job with him at first. Without the success of Stitches he would be the new Austin Mahone

My favourite twink:

Did you take that pic Shawn?

Yes, it's from my personal collection.

Here's another:

Shawn has a folder of Connor pics to fap over, no doubt.

R59 Hopefully it won't turn you into a self-hater, like it's done him.

Also, you'll have to still visit me once in a while when you are a big star.

#shamila looks more legit 💁🏻‍♂️

How vulgar!!!

R70: No, in fact Shawmila are probably the only ones who are even worst than them

What it's surprising is that Thimotee who is a good actor is so incredibly bad at faking a relationship

R71 I know you'd prefer some hot lesbo action, being a str8 guy and all. You could pretend that the one on the left is FTM, and still has a nice pussy for you to lick.

I blocked a couple of people here and suddenly all the Shawn is straight dissapered.

By the way, i wasn't implying Chalamet is gay, only that his relationship is clearly fake. And he is ridiculous, if he can barely stand a question about his "girlfriend" without faint he should avoit a pr relationship. At least Shawn has no problem to lie at their faces when they question him about Camila

R74 The solution is obvious - Shawn and Timmy should ditch their respect fake gfs and fuck.

When Shawn retires each evening, I bet he is sitting on the some of hottest dicks out there, hunny. He is keeping all the good trade for himself by pretending he likes vagina. He knows that if he was out, all you hating ass bitches would be trying to take his hot mens!

I bet if Dustin Lance Black could keep Tom Daley in the closet he would have, to keep those thirsty hoes away

I think Shawn is probably too repressed to be having sex with guys.

But he probably does have fantasies about hot men:

R76 The advance of time is going to be unkind to them as a couple - though Tom's constant tan means he'll age fast as well.

Poor Shawn probably daydreams about big cocks, but he really needs something more modest for his first time. Perhaps Tiny Tim would be a good fit - as it were.

[quote][R2]/frau, because he's a phony bastard sending the message that it's ok to be a lying closeted fuck.

That's because it is okay to be closeted. It's not healthy, but it hardly makes a person evil or worthy of derision.

Grow up.

R79 Agreed. The idea that the closeted "owe" coming out to anyone is peer pressuring bullshit.

People defending closet cases on a gay website are pathetic. Grow up or get out.

R79, I don't think anyone is saying that it's "evil" to be closeted.

But people have the right to be critical of celebrities who lie & beard in the year 2019.

If they don't want to come out, that's one thing. But if they are going to engage in a huge PR bearding campaign than people have the right to be critical.

Being closeted is a thing, bearding a very different one

r79 When you're closeted AND you say homophobic thing in interviews it's a big deal.

That's a very seductive look.

R85 He's giving you the 'bend over right now' look.

They’re both bottoms.

R88 Connor takes pics as Shawn's bro friends take turns fucking him.

R85 looks like lesbian, too much estrogen for a ‘male’.

[quote]“Did you see the video of Shawn Mendes saying he’d love to collab with you?”

Brendon Urie: “Oh really?! That’s super dope man. I f**king love Shawn Mendes. Beautiful human. Gorgeous voice. Beautiful soul.”

Hey Brendon, wanna come over and fuck me? Camila is out of town.

R91 You'll only have a gay panic at the disco if he does.

You are punny, R92 *giggles*

R94 Does Connor have freckles all over? You can tell us.

I wonder how many male celebs have secretly propositioned Shawn. I know men around the world want him

R96 There were several times when he thought it was going to happen, but then they just wanted an intro to Connor.

Poor Shawnie cried into his pillow on many lonely lights.

R96, I don't know how many, but Gus Kenworthy sure hasn't been very subtle about his intentions towards Shawn.

He's tracked him down at about 3 or 4 concerts now:

R98 Gus is thirsty enough that he might actually top for Shawn. I don't know if I'd trust him to keep quite about it, though.

[quote][R96] There were several times when he thought it was going to happen, but then they just wanted an intro to Connor.

R93 She reminds me of Yulia Lipnitskaia. Her ‘dick’ must be tiny if she has any.

r90 I think he's perfect.

R96: I doubt it. He is cute, but far from hot, and he doesn't seem fun or inteligent. If you want to fuck and dumb but handsome guy there are a lot of male models way better than Shawn

Yeah but Shawn would be a huge trophy.

R103 bitch they don’t want to Fuck some no name model they want to fuck A list popstsr Shawn mendes!

R103 He's loosing his looks rabidly.

Brendon Urie wants to fuck me raw and I'm here for it.

Between Shawn and Connor, who tops the other more?

I'm only on top to ride his dick, R108

I don't blame you, Shawn. I would ride Connor's dick across the world.

R105: Are you fucking kidding me. They are not gruppies, and even less of a talentless trainwreck like Shawn

R110 What if Connor has a clit?

Daddy Cez likes my pits <3

Poor Shawn would run in terror at the sight of a hard dick, and try desperately to conceal his own. Let go of your hate, Shawn.

R113 Shawn has ugly unkempt, unsymmetrical armpit hair. He looks like a homeless madman in your pic. The hip and legs look gay. His face is gaunt and horsey, the hair greasy. He is pretty gross by now, at some point daddy Cez won’t want that anymore.

R101, sometimes twinks like Connor can have surprisingly big dicks.

Look at some of the porn stars on sites like Helix.

R115 He still cleans up ok, but you can see how he's going to age.

r117 But with all the money Shawn's made he'll be able to swim in an ocean of dick for the next 50 years.

Do you like my roses? I will show you my flower.

R118 True. Hopefully it's being decently managed.

r44 that is one basic looking chick. Do better Hollywood. I want my pop-tarts to be actually hot, next door cute. Shawn, if you're gonna beard, pick someone on your level.

And she's a foot shorter than he is so they look awkward together, R122.

R123 He's only pretending to date her for the hair accessories.

Unlike when I got a bow during my appearance on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon just laughs in your face, Shawn, because you're nothing more than a horsey looking clown. - -

R124, Shawn seems to enjoy carrying her purse, too:

R22 she’s a popstar they never are drop dead gorgeous! Girls need to be able to relate to them in some way not just gays.

Shawn is not “A list”.

What is he considered, R128?

F list. F stands for faggot!

R125 Don't be mean. C'mere, I've got some more of that power shake that you like.

R129: A list not for sure. He is popular, and he is popular in a lot of countries, but he doesn't sell what Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars or Justin Bieben. He doesn't even sell what Sam Smith sells. And the biggest names in the business right now are not even males

Checking DL like 💁🏻‍♂️

He's a glorified Youtube star.

Vine star, the one who was a star on youtube was Troye

He's gone way beyond YouTube/Vine now.

I’m a star.

r133 Camila: All the time you spend with that boy Connor. We're supposed to be dating, Shawn!

Shawn: Grow a cock and lose a few pounds, hunny. Maybe we'll talk.

Camila, who?

R138 Shawn made an honest try of it, but he just couldn't get her clit up his ass.

What are they doing at R133? Sitting in a restaurant and drinking glasses of water?

[quote]What are they doing at [R133]? Sitting in a restaurant and drinking glasses of water?

Yes. After first calling the paparazzi.

Yes, R142. It's interesting that the photographers always happen to be present at whatever restaurant Shawn & Camila are in.

Camilla has gotten so wide, she's only allowed water during their dinner "dates".

Check out my muscular arms, bitches!

R154 such gay tattoos. He must be a pretty dumb and tasteless person.

Someone needs to learn how to do laundry or something.

yassss r145 he's getting jacked

I had forgotten Shawn was close with 1D's resident leprechaun Niall Horan - is he also secretly getting the Irish d? This gif looks like the beginning "introductions" segment of their Helix flip-fuck scene.

R148 He wishes by Connor.

R149 He's imagining what Niall's scruff would feel like against his ass.

Who do you think Shawn prefers, Connor or Daddy Cez?

The start of our sex tape...

They have a lot of alcohol there. Shawn is going to end an alchoholic

He needed the alcohol for that video.

When you’re playing spin the bottle & it lands on a girl

Shawn! What a naughty video. Haha, honestly, what the fuck is this?!

That video is so cringy, it makes me feel second hand embarrassment. Not to mention if they were a real couple they wouldn't even care what people say about how they kiss (tbf people wouldn't say anything bcs they wouldn't be so awkward anytime they have to show some PDA, but you know)

Choke me daddy

And i thought that Thimothee Chalamet was pathetic for his obvious stunt but he is not remotely on Shawn's level of pathetism

Who do you think Shawn ran to for comfort after shooting that video, Daddy Cez or Connor?

He posted that on 9/11... A day of national mourning. Deport his ass.

They think they're more adorable and endearing than they actually are.

R159 I hope people remember this and drag him when he comes out as trans/gay.

R164 No doubt of that. They'll be plenty of sympathy as he cries his way through an apology tour, but DL will be here to keep putting feet up his ass.

17M views and Daddy Cez liked it!

It is funny that there's all that booze on view on the table.

Deliberate or accidental?

The video was filmed a month ago!

The bearding is so incredibly over the top bad that their relationship is starting to being questioned by mainstream media

r168 JFC that's pathetic.

r169 Except some fangirls, no one even believed it in the first place it always reeked of PR

R170: Yes, but generally mainstream media treats this kind of couples with kid gloves, they are never critic of the celebrities, but Shawn and Camila are being so ridiculous that i read some headlines on newspapers about their strange behaviour

So the whole "it was made a month ago" theory is based solely on the idea he wouldn't wear the same shirt twice?

Yeah, some people are questioning Perez Hilton's assertions.

But the other point is interesting -- the media normally goes along with bearding, so the fact that they are starting to make fun of Shawn & Camila should be a warning to them how bad it is.

Kiss the girl

Vice:

This morning, Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes made so many of us cry out for brain bleach with a video them kissing. Err, rather… it's 30 seconds of fully-open mouth smashing against fully-open mouth, lips flapping open like four fish out of water, tongues dragging on each other's chins. So yes, "kissing," if we want to call it that. The lack of spit strings is a small blessing, just barely saving them from the skin-crawling fate of the kiss in 2001's Not Another Teen Movie.

To Shawn and Camila, and Timothée and Lily-Rose, we get it: You fuck. But at what cost? Is this what happens when one learns to kiss in the age of WikiHow and its downright terrifying illustrations? Is this is what happens when the demise of print media means the end of trash magazines for teen girls and their primers on kissing? When you're attractive and rich, does nobody call you out on your shit, even when it means slobbering all over the face of the person you're smooching?

Who dares to TXT me and ask me about Shawn Mendes? 909-323-1339

Is he going to answer honestly, though?

Cameron Dallas is doing a Q&A?

One way to find out, R177

No, R178 ...replying to TXTs and sending a snippet of a song

So Cam, did you pop Shawn's cherry?

He couldn't get enough, R180

#ShawnMendesTheTour has earned $69.5 MILLION so far, $46.9M from the North American leg alone (via @billboard).

Natural beauty

R182, so how many millions does Shawn get from that? What's his % of the take?

With the bros...my hole is ready!

Is that Connor in the middle at R185 with the camera?

Yes, R186, he gets to go 1st.

Herpes

Shawn & Connor:

R175: To be fair the Chalamet/LRD situation is even worse.

Shawn and Camila are pathetic and really bad at bearding, but Chalamet is an actor and he is almost equally bad at faking a relationship, but it's even worst because he was on the verge of faint when he was questioned abut his relationship on the golden globes red carpet. It seems he wants to be considered a serious actor but he wants to use cheap tricks for promo (even Rami Malek is better at faking interest in his relationship). At least Shawn is the classic cheap promo of a duet.

I think both have to tone it down because they are on the verge of being ridiculed massively (and they deserve it)

R190 Chalamet is a str8 stop bringing that Hetero nonsense on here.

R191: Nobody is talking about his sexual orientation, idiot. I was talking about his fake relationship, because that relationship is fake, fake, fake with capital F, and he is not even good at it.

Most fake relationships on HW doens't have anything to do with hiding someone's homosexuality, they are about promotion.

If he is straight that's even worst, because he is a good actor who is unable to fake a sexual interest for his supposed girlfriend on a staged pap pics

Daddy, where are you?

R193 Sorry, Armie's dick is stuck in his wife.

Rocking the hairband

R195 Time for your ass waxing, Shawn! Be a brave girl and don't cry this time.

The big licky kiss was a joke.

Camila reminds me of Joan Cusack’s dance partner in “Sixteen Candles”.

Well, it's not that their average kisses are too much better

R195, a girl's gotta have her hairband!

r195 Why does he always wear a hairband when he works out?

r198 There was one pic of them where I swear he missed her mouth and kissed her eye instead. Has he even made out with a guy,? It would be the same wouldnt it.

[quote]Why does he always wear a hairband when he works out?

His former lover John Mayer introduced it to him.

[Quote] former lover

Emphasis on [bold] former lover [/bold]

- -

I kiss like fish cuz I’m a mermaid!

His handlers should tell him that if he wants to portray himself as a heterosexual stud, he probably should ditch the hairband.

R205 And stop carrying around Camila's purse.

Agreed, R206.

Most heterosexual guys, even if they want to get in good with their girlfriend, would not be quite so enthusiastic about carrying a purse around. . .

R204 yiiiiiikes

Billie wishes I was gay! 💁🏻‍♂️

Billie hates his guts and it's nothing new, she couldn't care less about him even before the PR stunt

Meanwhile Alec...

R203 You're so cute when you're possessive. Anyway it isn't true, poor Shawn was too self-hating to go in for a cuddle. I respect his boundaries, of course.

Awww....

[quote]Couldn’t be more thankful for this guy right here @shawnmendes ...One week he allowed me to propose to @jessrehab in the middle of his biggest headlining show ever...just goes to show what kind of guy he truly is ❤️❤️❤️

Shawn pandering to the straights of course.

Shawn working out

I love Billie Eilish

Cheating on my gf with my sister! #heterolife

How do I look? 💁🏻‍♂️

I'm totally straight, bitches!

R257 WTF is going on there??

^ R217 I mean

Shawn is so desperate to make people think he's straight, he'd even consider incest.

R220, neck kisses 😘 i love my sis!

This is getting creepy...

He’s being seen with someone like a woman.

I love pussy!

R226 Camila looks miserable. Hopefully she's having second thoughts about this bearing arrangement.

R227, I don't think she regrets it yet. It's giving her new song lots of publicity and attention from the fangirls.

r226 Shawn: Move those hips and start smiling, hunny. The paps are here.

She really looks miserable. The worst part is the song (as crappy as it is) was destined to be a hit and doesn't needed all this display of bad acting

Do you think they're going to keep doubling down the bearding? It seems like the more everyone sees how fake it is, the more they commit to it.

In that case, we'll get an engagement announcement soon.

R210 I sonder auf Queen Billie also despises cash cow Camilla.

R230 Camilla looks terrible: short, fat and washed out. She does not look like a celebrity at all.

And no, without the bearding this song would not have been a hit. It needed the flirty lyrics and 'steamy' music video to gather enough attention. If Shawn was he true self, he wouldn't sing about hooking up with a girl at all. And believe me, his demographics wouldn't be interesting in seeing and hearing it.

Has Shawn ever been true to himself?

R234: that's not true. The song was doing perfectly fine way before they started to do whatever they do (they are so bad that it's even an insult call that bearding).

A steamy video is one thing, other is the absurd pap pics.

Shawn can be true to himself when it's pretty clear that he loathed everything gay related (that it's not for self promotion, because being an "straight ally" is good for the business).

But a duet between two artist with big teen fanbases is going to work unless the song is a disaster, and Señorita is pretty bad, but it's catchy too

And the problem is not Shawn being gay. Sam Smith is gay, and a mess and an attention whore, but he is able to sell albums because he is talented.

There's something incredibly dishonest in Shawn's songs that goes beyond him being gay and singing about women. Ricky Martin did that (and a lot of other gay singers) but they were way better doing it.

It's beyong the sexual orientation, he is promoting a knight in shiny armour image that has absolutely nothing to do with him

[quote]Ricky Martin did that (and a lot of other gay singers)

I think this is worst because is not the 80 or 90´s anymore, it's fucking 2019 and Shawn (or his team wtv) feels the need to do this, I thought we were over that in the music industry at least

[quote]Sam Smith is gay, and a mess and an attention whore, but he is able to sell albums because he is talented.

Well, that's the thing, Shawn's not talented enough

*worse

I'd like to know how Shawn's management got him to go along with a bearding arrangement now when the last time they tried it with Hailey baldwin he didn't go along with it at all. He deliberately sabotaged it

That's when I had some respect for Shawn btw, even though I've never liked his music.

[QUOTE]I think this is worst because is not the 80 or 90´s anymore, it's fucking 2019 and Shawn (or his team wtv) feels the need to do this, I thought we were over that in the music industry at least

What kind of bubble are you living in where the music industry has suddenly become progressive? I guess it's the same kind of bubble where you apparently think that Mendes is some kind of actual artist, rather than essentially a solo boy-bander. He has the success he has because his fans want to fuck him. If he came out, he'd lose most of them.

Maybe the industry is not progressive, but in the last decade is quite easy to find openly gay singers with songs on the radio charts, something that was almost impossible in the past (in the 90's only Elton John did, even George Michael was blacklisted after the scandal).

And i think it was easier to convince him this time for two reasons, first his RS interview (and some that he did after that) show how incredibly uncomfortable he is with the fact that a lot of people (including some of his fans) think he is gay, and second, Camila is really a friend, so having her on board makes everything easier.

She seems exhausted right now (and i think she is pretty concious that they are being mocked and this relationship could end being bad for her career on the long run) but she is not going to betray him. They probably split in a couple of months and with a little luck their friendship will be intact

r242

[quote] What kind of bubble are you living in where the music industry has suddenly become progressive

Not the best it can be, but you have to admit it's a lot better now. Or are you telling me all the nonsense of Sam Smith changing his pronouns would've been accepted just like that back then ? Not to mention the amount of gay, lesbian, etc. artists that came out since then.

[quote]you apparently think that Mendes is some kind of actual artist

What?? I literally said he isn't talented enough so he has to resort to these antics

Most openly gay singers are sticking to the indie music scene.

[QUOTE]What?? I literally said he isn't talented enough so he has to resort to these antics

Yes, but even in the same post where you say this you still try to liken Shawn to Sam Smith as a comparison of someone being out and successful. But Smith has talent, and isn't relying on the shallow boy band type marketing strategy like Shawn is. Surely you can see how the promotion and positioning and so on of someone like Shawn Mendes varies massively from someone like Sam Smith, and how the former certainly hasn't gotten over any of their prejudices about openly gay artists - especially when their audience is teen girls.

r245 It was r237 who said that, not me though....

Such a shame he decided to go with bearding. I get it that he'd lose some fans if he comes out, but he'd gain some others too. I mean even rappers are starting to come out now. Just today Tyler the Creator released this video, talking about a drastic change, and he's being more successful than ever too!

This of all the prides he could perform at if he came out

Its probably those old record executives who have forbid him from coming out. All the while Shawn is probably spreading his hole for them on their private yachts. Its all in the name of money, honey.

Shawn was a pretty simple white boy from Canada and they scooped him up really young, so he didn't know any better. He will have as many issues as Justin Bieber. But Shawn has that show pony mentality, and he is the type of homosexual that thinks they need a picture perfect appearance to compensate for being gay. Those record executives know this about him and they will work him, and guilt him into this stuff until he breaks. A common but sad tale of show business!

No, R246, it was you:

[QUOTE]Or are you telling me all the nonsense of Sam Smith changing his pronouns would've been accepted just like that back then ?

Once again, Shawn Mendes is in no way comparable to Sam Smith.

[quote]Camilla looks terrible: short, fat and washed out. She does not look like a celebrity at all.

Yeah, the problem is that they look awkward together physically because she's short & Shawn is tall. They're a foot apart -- 5'2 vs. 6'2.

r250 Oh FFS! I was just giving an example of how the music industry did progressed a little, not comparing Shawn to Sam Smith. Reading comprehension isn't your forte huh?

[quote]I'd like to know how Shawn's management got him to go along with a bearding arrangement now when the last time they tried it with Hailey baldwin he didn't go along with it at all. He deliberately sabotaged it

I think Shawn went along with it this time for 2 reasons:

1. He felt uncomfortable with Hailey because they hardly knew each other and he didn't have a friendship with her.

2. He was upset that people noticed he pings and he wants people to think he's straight ("I need to be seen with someone like a girl")

R236 What I meant was: Sean was going to fake it with Camilla anyway - at least for the song and the music video. They both needed the buzz. Then the next logical step for him was to start bearding to the public as well in order to fend off the gay rumors. If Shawn was keeping it real and we’re out, he wouldn’t be able to do that song with her. But the Shawn Mendes brand needs to SELL because they don’t create any artist value.

R247 If Shawn came out he would loose most of his female fans probably because they couldn’t relate to him anymore. But what kind of fans could he gain? He has lots of male gay fans already, just look at the guys he takes pictures with after a concert. Shawn would need a mostly new fan base which he could only gain if he made mature and meaningful music. The shallow mainstream appeal wouldn’t work anymore.

R249 This 100 %, especially the ’compensating for being gay’ part.

R247 Tyler is very talented and creative as your linked video shows. Shawn could never come up with such a artistic vision and he is not gutsy enough to do anything interesting.

As someone above said, the reason Shawn was more willing to go along with bearding with Camila is that they've been friends for several years and he feels comfortable with her.

That wasn't the case with Hailey.

r255 Are Shawn's flyover fangirl fans keeping him from doing anything really edgy, or is he just scared to do anything that might be revealing about who he is?

R255 I know right, you gotta be your edgy genderless self.

r257 I think he just doesn't have it in him, like we've said a thousand times before in these threads, he's boring. They're trying to spice up things a little with this "romance" but it isn't working either (we know exactly why) and just comes off as awkward instead. Maybe the guy is just not interesting/edgy or whatever?

You guys are just making him more depressed. Do I think he's gay? Yes. Do we need to bully him for it? No. It's his personal journey. No need to be a broken record and be nasty about it. He'll come out when he comes out. He's obviously hurting inside and he seems like a sad young man to me. And our cruel reactions are only making his pain worse. Let it be and let him come out on his own terms when he's ready.

[quote][R257] I think he just doesn't have it in him, like we've said a thousand times before in these threads, he's boring

Gurl he's not that boring. During his Q&A's with fans he let's some of the inner bitchy queen out to play, but not too much.

Shawn Mendes being a bitch

Yes, R262, Shawn berated that guy for quite a while and swore at him!

R260 is a real doozy!

[Quote] You guys are just making him more depressed.

How do you know this? Are you Shawn or someone in his circle? He chose this life. If he's miserable about it, then he can do what any respectable person would do and quit. Until then, he's fair game for our collective mockery and ridicule.

[Quote] Do I think he's gay? Yes. Do we need to bully him for it? No.

Are you aware of what site you're on? The whole point is to espouse pointless bitchery. Too bad so sad if you don't like it. Shawn isn't interesting enough on his own merits. He's only interesting when he acts like the closeted bitch and clown we know he is. That deserves ridicule.

[Quote] It's his personal journey. No need to be a broken record and be nasty about it.

He's a public figure and we can (and will) discuss his "journey" together, ups, downs and everything in between.

[Quote] He'll come out when he comes out.

Yeah, we know, when he's no longer famous, like most closeted celebrities. It's pathetic in 2019 that this is still happening. It needs to stop.

[Quote] He's obviously hurting inside and he seems like a sad young man to me. And our cruel reactions are only making his pain worse.

Again, how do you know this?

[Quote] Let it be and let him come out on his own terms when he's ready.

He'll come out when he comes out, but we're still going to point out that he's gay and mock him for lying about it in the interim. Too bad, so sad.

Being bitchy doesn't makes him interesting

R260, I think most people here liked Shawn until a year ago. He seemed like a nicer guy than some other celebrities and he seemed to be resisting the bearding that his team wanted him to do with Hailey.

What happened is that he upset a lot of people with the Rolling Stone interview where he said he wakes up in the middle of the night worried people think he's gay. His popularity on DL took a downturn after that.

[quote]Being bitchy doesn't makes him interesting

If Shawn stopped taking his beta blocker meds, turned on Taylor Swift and started calling her a fat bitch, DL would be very interested in that.

R260: Sorry but it's all his fault. Before the RS interview people here liked him, yes, a lot thought he was just a talentless pretty face, but the consensus was that he was a nice guy. That changed drastically after the RS interview when he show not only how fake he is but how homophobic he is and it was not subtle.

HIs good guy image protected him back then (there were even articles defending what it was very difficult to defend) but not anymore

R267: That wouldn't be interesting but very stupid, being friend of Taylor Swift could save his career when it starts to go downhill (and that'll be sooner than later)

[quote]HIs good guy image protected him back then (there were even articles defending what it was very difficult to defend) but not anymore

He is still an industry favorite and he still had a good guy image. Only here in this gathering of us gays has his reputation taken a hit, because we know he's out here pulling stunts. But to the unenlightened straights he is just a very handsome young man who make cute songs.

R270: You are wrong. I read articles in mainstream newpapers mocking his relationship, His good image is gone. And after a good bunch bunch of articles defending him after the RS debacle, there were a good bunch of articles being critic with his attitude.

He is not Justing Bieber, he is not trashing hotel rooms and being unpolite, but if you think his interviews and this absurd pr stunt didn't make any damage to his image you are very wrong.

DL is very far from being the only place he is mocked

Shawn wouldn't have done that stupid kissing video with Camila if only DL was calling them out on how fake they are.

R272: His team is really awful, the almost killed his career at the start and they seem unable to tell him to stop, nobody is buying that crap and he is only embarrassing himself

Are they still friends though? After he said Taylor putting him makeup on and then uploading a story to her IG about it gave him cold sweats and he couldn't sleep worrying about what people would say, I doubt she would want to even hangout with him anymore. I know i wouldn't at least, having to walk on eggshells around him must be exhausting

^ That was for r269 btw

If Shawn's management leaked videos of Shawn being very bitchy backstage, ordering people around and threatening to fire musicians, will it restore his image with our community?

r276 Why would it? He'd just be shitty person, you think that'd make it better?

The only way to "restore his image with our community" will be imo, I'm not expecting an apology, but at least acknowledge the shitty homophobic stuff he said in the past and stop saying that in the future. Or coming up.

R273 But without his team be would be nothing special, just a regular guy like the tons of somewhat good-looking, moderately talented (gay) amateur singers on youtube. I think it must be hard to manage him, to make him stay interesting and relevant or even transition to a mature musician.

R270 I wouldn't say he's very handsome anymore. He used to look very cute when young but is loosing his looks fast.

.... but looks more and more horsey lately. I don't know if this is reversible, I guess not.

R267 We all know Shawn unleashed would be very bitchy and femme, it's going to be hard to bear. I'd put him between Chris Colfer and Frankie Grande. Camp Shawn would have a very limited appeal, probably only bitchy queens themselves will like him. He is not Prince or something.

[QUOTE]make him stay interesting

Your use of the word "stay" suggests you think he's interesting now.

In a way, I think the homophobia in the Rolling Stone profile did him something on a favour, as everyone focused on that. That meant they overlooked the rest of the article - which exposed his naked and singular obsession with being famous. And not a famous musician - there was barely any talk of his music - just fame and attention.

R281 So....Troye Sivan then?

I wonder how many months or years we are away from Shawn being outed and then doing his crying tour. Connor then slaps him with big sexual harassment suit, just for kicks.

Shawn is only 21. I'll give him to 25 before he comes out.

Unless he's outed before that (Connor has a lot of video stored up).

So sweet Connor has been planning to blackmail Shawn all along?

^^ The sweet ones are always up to something.

I want a threesome with Connor & his brother!

Shawn, you can't make that happen? Even if Daddy Cez is there to make sure you boys are behaving?

R288 Sorry Shawn, Connor's brother doesn't share. They might let you watch, though.

I'd love to watch Connor and his brother.

We have some incest fans here?

Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello buy Halloween masks together:

I can't believe that's considered news R293
