"My sexuality?" I stutter out. "Way to be forward huh Ellen?" I say with a chuckle, trying to break the awkward tension that has just taken over the entire audience.

"We don't have to discuss it. It's just something a lot of your fans have been curious about."

"No...I'm actually glad you brought it up because I did want to talk about it." I take a deep breathe and continue. "I've always been very aware that people have questioned my sexuality although I don't know why. If you look back at any interview I've ever done, when it comes to relationships I never single out a 'guy' or a 'girl'. I always refer to them as 'they' or 'person' because it shouldn't really mater what gender the person I love or am seeing is. Not to me anyway. I never felt the need to come out or whatever cause I never really hid it..and also the fact I wasn't allowed to but if I am going to, I'm glad its on your show. Yes I am bisexual and i'm extremely proud to be bisexual." I finish letting out a huge breath. I hear a huge round of applause come from the audience, some people even had tears in their eyes. I turn to Ellen and she looked like a proud mother.

"Wow Camila!" she says "You're very brave Camila and very inspiring. But you said you weren't allowed to come out? What do you mean by that?"

"Well basically while in the band they wanted to stick to this image that I was just your standard straight girl. The girls new I was bisexual as did most of our team. I wanted to just be like "Yeah so I'm bisexual" but I wan't allowed to. It did play a factor in my decision to leave the band as I wasn't truly being myself and being honest."

"Well I'm glad you are no longer under that managemnet cause no one should ever have to hide who they are. So how come Lauren was allowed to come out and not you?"

"I'm not sure really. That's a question for her not me." I say with a small smile.

"Fair enough" Ellen replied with a grin on her face. "Now before you go, you're going to the Grammys this Sunday correct? Are you excited?"

"YES!!" I shout excitedly, the audience laughing at me. "Sorry! I'm just so excited! I'm really looking forward to presenting"

"Any idea if you're gonna have a date?" She questions me.

"Uhm you'll jut have to wait and see I suppose." I say with a smirk plastered on my face, sending her a small wink. She laughs and shakes her head.

"Thank you so much for being here today. Please come back anytime you want ok? You're such a wonderful person and I wish you nothing but success and love!" She squeezes my hand tenderly.

"Thank you so much!"

"We'll be right back after the break. Camila Cabello everyone!"

I see her stand and so do I. She engulfs me into a big hug and I can here the audience in the background cheering. I pull away from and send Ellen a smile.

"I mean it Camila.You're an amazing person and role model."

"Thank you so much! That means a lot coming from you." I say with a small smile on my lips. I walk of the stage giving one last wave to the audience and blowing them a few kisses.

Once backstage, I'm immediately hugged by my mother and father.

"Mija we are so so proud of you!" My mom says planting kisses all over my face says "You are so brave and loving and kind! I am so proud i get to call you mine"

"Thanks mami" I say, my head in her neck, giving her a loving hug while my father place a gentle kiss on the top of my head. They both had tears in there eyes.
"Camila you did great out there. I'm truly so proud of you on a personal level! On a business level I'm even prouder as this is more than likely going to gain you a new wave of supporters" Roger said giving me a quick side hug.  " I hate to take you away after such an emotional interview but your booked in for studio time today with Pharell."
"Oh crap I forgot about that" I turn and face my parents and sister giving them a huge hug." Thank you guys for being here today. I'll see you later mami. Dad, Sof have a safe flight back ok?" I give both my dad and Sofia another hug. I won't see them for another month I'd say or at least until my birthday.
"Bye Kaki! I love you"
"Bye Karla I'm so proud of you"
With one last hug I made my way out the car that was going to take me to the studio. I pulled out my phone and sent a message to the girls and I group chat.
OT5💕
Mila🦄: Hey guys I just wrapped my interview with Ellen there. I really hope ye guys watch it tomorrow when it airs. I miss you all so so much and I hope you know how much I love you guys. I hope to see you soon xx
After it sent I locked my phone and put it in my pocket. I closed my eyes and let out a huge breath that I didn't realise I was holding.
I can't wait for the grammys on Sunday. It's going to be huge.
