IS SHAWN OK?
Quarter-life crisis! Fans were concerned when Shawn Mendes described himself as “drowning” in a lengthy Twitter post about the selfdoubt that dogs him despite his success. “I still find it hard to feel like I’m not failing,” the 23-year-old wrote to his 26.7 million followers April 19, adding that he was “hyper focused on what I don’t have.” Some tried to assure the singer, who split from Camila Cabello in November, “It’s OK to feel that way and you validate your emotions,” read one response. Meanwhile, sources tell Star those in the
“I’ll Be Okay” singer’s camp are grateful he’s letting his angst out. “They figure Shawn needs reassurance, and that’s why he chooses to express himself on Twitter,” says an insider. “Just sharing his feelings is like therapy.” ★
