Camila Cabello is reflecting on her successful career in the entertainment business and her personal growth following the release of her album 'C,XOXO.' The singer shared her thoughts during a conversation with Dave Grutman at Art Basel Miami Beach, where she talked about what it meant to be a "Miami girl" and what she finds important after turning 27.
The singer was born in Cuba and grew up in Miami. However, many were not aware of her background. "I think this album was also really special because I don’t feel like people knew I was a Miami girl, and I feel like people resonated with the little Miami things I put in that album," she said during the panel. The performer looked stunning on stage in an all-black ensemble paired with matching black Gianvito Rossi Finny booties and minimal jewelry.

At least for me, at 27, this is the first time I really feel like, ‘I’m a woman!’ Like, I’m an adult.”

And to be honest, I wasn’t at all, but I think I should’ve been, in the sense that when it came out, people were like, ‘This is so different.’”
