'Wonder' singer Shawn Mendes joined Hits Radio Breakfast with Fleur East, James and Producer Matt this morning (9th October), to talk about what he's been up to during the Coronavirus Pandemic, missing his girlfriend Camila Cabello while she's been away, and James even got to sing 'Señorita' with Shawn.

It seems, like many of us, Shawn was consumed by baking lots of banana bread and binge-watching series on Netflix, with the singer revealing that he and Camila have really got into what we call The Great British Bake Off, but according to Shawn it has another name in the US.

"Camila and I, we've been watching seven seasons of The Great British Baking Show," Shawn revealed, going on to explain that in the US and Canada the show has a different name. He also revealed the couple have been baking TONNES of banana bread!

Shawn has just released his fantastic single 'Wonder', which you can hear on Hits Radio, and Fleur was keen to talk about his music video saying the incredible video was like a movie, which led her onto asking the singer who Disney character he would like to play.

"I don't know how this doesn't come across in some self-obsessed conceited way, but it would be Tarzan!" Shawn revealed.

Shawn also confirmed to the team that he and Justin Bieber have been getting close over the last few months! "We've actually become really close friends, and I think it's (his new song) is awesome. I had a great chat with him and he seems like he's coming from a really pure place as do I feel like that about my stuff."

Catch Hits Radio Breakfast with Fleur East, James and Producer Matt on air every weekday from 6am - 10am.
