This is the year for power couples, and Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes have reportedly added themselves to the list. The two singers revealed their romance in July of 2019 when paparazzi caught them enjoying romantic dates and engaging in steamy makeout sessions.

Now that their relationship is out there, we can’t help but wonder: Which singer has the highest net worth?

Cabello worked hard for her money

Cabello, 22, got her big break after appearing on the talent show X Factor when she was 15 years old. But judges eliminated her during the boot camp part of the show. 

However, she returned to the series along with contestants Ally Brooke, Normani, Dinah Jane, and Lauren Jauregui to form what would later become Fifth Harmony. The group finished in third place and went on to sign a joint deal Simon Cowell’s label Syco Music, and Epic Records.

In 2015, the group released its first album, Reflections. The project, which sold more than 80,000 copies, spawned popular songs like “Boss,” “Sledgehammer,” and “Worth It.” 

The following year, Fifth Harmony dropped its second studio album, 7/27. The album sold around 74,000 copies and featured smash hits like “Work from Home,” and “All in My Head (Flex).”

Cabello began building her solo career, and it paid off

While a part of the group, Cabello started establishing herself as a solo artist. She released collaborations like “I Know What You Did Last Summer” with Shawn Mendes, and the Machine Gun Kelly track, “Bad Things.” Both songs were widely successful and solidified her as a superstar apart from the group.

In 2016, Cabello left Fifth Harmony to focus on her budding career. (The group would release one final album the following year.) Two years later, she released her debut album, Camila, which featured the chart-topping single “Havana.”

Clearly, her efforts have paid off. The Grammy-nominated singer has a net worth of $12 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Shawn Mendes’ net worth is stunning

Mendes got his first taste of fame on Vine (remember that?), where he would post song covers on the video-sharing platform. Eventually, he caught the eye of someone over at Island Records, who signed him. 

In 2015, Mendes released his debut album Handwritten, which featured the ever-popular track “Stitches.” The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning favorable reviews and selling more than 100,000 copies.

He followed up with 2016’s Illuminate, which also topped the Billboard 200 and spawned singles like “Treat You Better” and “Mercy.” But his third album might be the biggest record of all. The self-titled album received widespread critical acclaim and included grooves like the Camila Cabello-assisted “Señorita,” and “In My Blood.”

According to Celebrity Net Worth, this 20-year-old star already has a net worth of $22 million.

How long have Mendes and Cabello been dating?

The singers have seemingly been together since July following Cabello’s 2019 split from relationship coach Matthew Hussey, who she dated for a year.

But the “Stitches” crooner has denied the rumors. When asked at a July 6 event whether he and Cabello were dating, he shook his head.

Even so, they’ve continued to spark relationship rumors. But some fans aren’t convinced that the two are legit anyways.

Maybe they’ll confirm their relationship soon. But in the meantime, keep your eyes out for more details regarding these two.
