Camila Cabello Seems To Face Low Concert Attendance in New Viral Video, Sparking Fan Reactions
Someone else chimed in, replying: “omg… this is so sad cuz cxoxo is such a bop!” An additional user commented: “Why? She’s a really good singer though What happened.”
While numerous users on the platform highlighted the apparently awkward situation, others stood up for the Grammy nominee, 27, explaining that her act was just one part of a series of performances during the College Football Playoff National Championship weekend.
At the event, the pop star delivered performances of songs from her newest album, featuring the title track "I Luv It" and "Chanel No. 5." The former Fifth Harmony member and style icon wore a striking navy tracksuit adorned with glittering embellishments and numerous cutouts that caught everyone's attention. Complementing the open-back outfit, she added matching sweatbands on her wrist and upper arm.
Cabello is scheduled for three shows this summer. The "Bam Bam" singer will perform at the Les Déferlantes Festival in Argelès-sur-Mer, France, in June, followed by the Ruisrock festival in Turku, Finland, and the Open'er Festival in Gdynia, Poland, both in July.
