Camila Cabello's Grammy Performance Ended With Lots Of Tears And A Big Hug

Camila Cabello only had eyes for one man while in her efficiency at the 2020 Grammys, also it wasn't Shawn Mendes.


The singer wasn't previously reported as a performer prior to the awards show on Sunday night (January 26), which made her appearance all of the more special. And she certainly made the surprise worthwhile, taking the possibility to debut "First Man" live. The closing track from her recently released sophomore album, Romance, is a tearjerker of a ballad really interested in her dad, Alejandro, who accompanied Cabello to the show. That is correct — although her main squeeze and "Señorita" duet partner, Mendes, was also in attendance, the couple didn't walk the red carpet with each other. Alternatively, Cabello made it a family member affair both on the carpet and on the stage, belting "First Man" with absolute grace.


Accompanied by just a piano player, Cabello smiled while in her efficiency, singing about how her dad is "the first man that really loved me." Making it even sweeter, residence videos of the father/daughter pair were projected on screens around her, and she finished the efficiency by walking into the crowd and giving her teary-eyed "first man" a big hug. Are you crying yet?!


Along with taking the stage at this year's Grammys, Cabello also earned her third nomination — she and Mendes's "Señorita" is up for Best Pop Duo/Group Efficiency. Meanwhile, this marked Cabello's second solo efficiency at the Grammys, following her star-studded rendition of "Havana" at last year's show. If this keeps it up and continues to be a trend every year, we're all for it!
