Karla Camila Cabello Estrabao (/kəˈmlə kəˈb/;[1] Latin American Spanish: [ˈkaɾla kaˈmila kaˈβeʝo esˈtɾaβao]; born March 3, 1997)[2] is an American singer and songwriter.[3] She rose to prominence as a member of the pop girl group Fifth Harmony, one of the best-selling girl groups of all time. While in the group, Cabello established herself as a solo artist with collaborative singles "I Know What You Did Last Summer" (with Shawn Mendes) and "Bad Things" (with Machine Gun Kelly), the latter making number four on the US Billboard Hot 100. She left Fifth Harmony in late 2016.

Cabello's debut studio album, Camila (2018), peaked atop the US Billboard 200. Largely influenced by Latin music, its lead single "Havana" (featuring Young Thug) was an international chart-topper.[4] It was the best-selling digital single of 2018, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). Its follow-up, "Never Be the Same" reached the top ten in multiple countries. Cabello's second album Romance (2019) peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 and spawned a second global chart-topper in "Señorita", a duet with Shawn Mendes.[5] Cabello's third album Familia (2022), made number ten on the Billboard 200[6] and contained the international hit "Bam Bam" (featuring Ed Sheeran).[5] Cabello's fourth studio album, C,XOXO, was released in 2024.[7][8]

Cabello's awards include two Latin Grammy Awards, five American Music Awards, and one Billboard Music Award. In 2021, Cabello starred as the title character in the film Cinderella.
