People also believe that Camila Cabello's 'Liar' lyrics are about Shawn Mendes too.

Camila Cabello fans are convinced that her 'Shameless' lyrics and video and her 'Liar' lyrics about Shawn Mendes.

Camila Cabello is back. The 22-year-old star may have already had an incredible year so far, thanks to hit collaborations with Ed Sheeran and Cardi B ('South of the Border'), Mark Ronson ('Find U Again') and her boyfriend Shawn Mendes ('Señorita'), but she hasn't released a solo single since 'Consequences' last October. Now, Camila has returned with a new era and it looks like it's going to be her biggest yet.

Today, Camila released two new singles, 'Shameless' and 'Liar', and fans think they're both about Shawn. Not only that but they think that there is a huge Shawn Mendes easter egg in Camila's 'Shameless' video.

Is Shawn Mendes in Camila Cabello's 'Shameless' video?

'Shameless' and 'Liar' are both songs about being madly infatuated with someone. In 'Shameless', Camila sings: "Right now I'm shameless/Screamin' my lungs out for ya/Not afraid to face it/I need you more than I want to", as she pines over a lover. Meanwhile, in 'Liar', Camila sings: "I said, I won't lose control, I don't want it (Ooh)/I said, I won't get too close but I can't stop it/Oh, no, there you go, making me a liar/Got me begging you for more" about a lover.

Seeing as Camila recently confirmed that she's dating Shawn Mendes, it's no surprise that fans think both singles are about him. In a recent interview with Variety, she explained that her new album is about her falling in love for the first time: "I fell in love and just opened up. Everything was written in present moment.” She also told Elle that she "love[s]" Shawn and that they've "fall[en] for each other like nobody is watching."

Tweets about the songs range from "'im tired of loving somebody that's not mine' ok shameless is 100% about shawn wbk" to "liar is definitely for shawn hahaha". Fans also think that Camila's included a Shawn easter egg in the 'Shameless' video. At 0:56, the camera zooms in on the back of a person who shares a strikingly resemblance to Shawn and Camila's heart appears to be beating for them. No other love interest appears in the video.

If that weren't enough, Shawn took to Instagram stories after 'Shameless' came out to share a screenshot of him listening to 'Shameless' along with a mind blown emoji and a heart emoji. He also posted an image of the back of his head immediately afterwards. Fans could be reading too much into this but it looks like Shawn just confirmed the fan theory that the video includes a reference to him.

Okay. They must be about Shawn, right?!! Regardless, we stan both songs and can't wait to hear what Camila does next.

Camila Cabello - 'Shameless' lyrics

VERSE 1
Don't speak, now, don't try
It's been a secret for the longest time
Don't run, no, don't hide
Been running from it for the longest time

PRE-CHORUS
So many mornings I woke up confused
In my dreams I do anything I want to you
My emotions are naked, they're taking me out of my mind

CHORUS
Right now I'm shameless
Screamin' my lungs out for ya
Not afraid to face it
I need you more than I want to
I need you more than I want to
Show me you're shameless
Write it on my neck, why don't ya?
And I won't erase it
I need you more than I want to
I need you more than I want to

POST-CHORUS
No, no, don't wanna do this
No, no, don't wanna do this
No, no, don't wanna do this
No, no, don't wanna do this

So we're there
Now it's real
Now that you have me, do you want me still?
My kisses are history, they go back a long time
And I'm tired of loving somebody that's not mine

PRE-CHORUS
So many mornings I woke up confused
In my dreams I do anything I want to you
My emotions are naked, they're taking me out of my mind (Mind)

CHORUS
Right now I'm shameless
Screamin' my lungs out for ya
Not afraid to face it
I need you more than I want to
I need you more than I want to

There's just inches in between us
I want you to give in, I want you to give in
There is tension in between us
I just wanna to give in
And I don't care if I'm forgiven

Right now I'm shameless
Screamin' my lungs out for ya
Not afraid to face it
I need you more than I want to
I need you more than I want to
Show me you're shameless

And I won't erase it
I need you more than I want to
I need you more than I want to

Camila Cabello - 'Liar' lyrics

VERSE 1
I don't care, if you're here
Or, if you're not alone
I don't care, it's been too long
It's kinda like we didn't happen
The way that, your lips move
The way you whisper slow
I don't care, it's good, it's gone (Uh)

PRE-CHORUS
I said, I won't lose control, I don't want it (Ooh)
I said, I won't get too close but I can't stop it

CHORUS
Oh, no, there you go, making me a liar
Got me begging you for more
Oh, no, there I go, startin' up a fire, oh, no, no (Oh, no)
Oh, no, there you go, you're making me a liar, I kinda like it though
Oh, no, there I go, startin' up a fire, oh, no, no (Ooh)

VERSE 2
You're watching, I feel it (Hey)
I know I shouldn't stare (Yeah, yeah)
I picture your hands on me
I think I wanna let it happen
But what if, you kiss me? (Yeah)
And what if, I like it?
And no one sees it

PRE-CHORUS
I said, I won't lose control, I don't want it (Ooh)
I said, I won't get too close but I can't stop it (No)

CHORUS
Oh, no, there you go, making me a liar
Got me begging you for more
Oh, no, there I go, startin' up a fire, oh, no, no (Oh, no)
Oh, no, there you go, you're making me a liar, I kinda like it though
Oh, no, there I go, startin' up a fire, oh, no, no

BRIDGE
Oh, no, no, no
Yeah, don't struggle, no, no
Startin' up a fire
I don't believe myself when I say
That I don't need you, oh
I don't believe myself when I say
So, don't believe me

CHORUS
Oh, no, there you go, you're making me a liar
Got me begging you for more
Oh, no, there I go, startin' up a fire, oh, no, no (Oh, no)
Oh, no, there you go, you're making me a liar, I kinda like it though
Oh, no, there I go, startin' up a fire, oh, no, no

OUTRO
Yeah
Uh, yeah, yeah
Nah, yeah
Oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, you're making me a liar
'Cause my clothes are on the floor
Huh, huh, huh
Uh
Oh, no, no, no
Startin' up a fire
