Artistry and musical influences

Mendes has mainly been described as a pop and folk-pop singer.[88][89] Mendes has cited John Mayer, Ed Sheeran, Justin Timberlake, and Bruno Mars as his main musical influences.[90][91] Growing up, Mendes listened to reggae music, Led Zeppelin, Garth Brooks, and country music thanks to his parents.[92] He expressed that his second studio album was influenced by Mayer's work[91] while his third album was inspired by Timberlake, Kings of Leon, Kanye West, and Daniel Caesar.[93] For Brittany Spanos of Rolling Stone, Mendes incorporates "catchy acoustic folk-pop tunes" in his catalogue,[89] while for Joe Coscarelli of The New York Times, "his soft, sometimes soulful pop-rock plays primarily to tweens and teenagers, but has also found traction on adult contemporary radio stations".[94] In an interview with Clash magazine, Mendes stated:

"I want to create anthems for people. I want to create anthems for big moments in their lives...I don't want my music to play for a few months and then go away forever. And not only that, I want to do incredible things that make a difference too. I think it's not only about the music you release, it's about the things you do while you're making the music."[95]

Brand endorsement and modelling

Mendes signed with Wilhelmina Models in 2016.[96][97][98][99]

In June 2017, Mendes walked the runway during the "Emporio Armani Spring 2018" show held in Milan, Italy.[100] Mendes was wearing the Italian brand's new smartwatch, EA Connected, during the show. Ahead of his runway walk, the promotional video featuring Mendes was shown.[101]

In August 2019, Mendes announced a partnership with Canadian-based food chain, Tim Hortons, in which he features in a commercial and on beverage cups,[106] followed by a partnership with Roots Canada in September.[107]

Philanthropy and supported causes

In 2014, Mendes and DoSomething.org launched their campaign called "Notes from Shawn" where fans were encouraged to write positive notes and leave them in unexpected places. The campaign was inspired by the lyrics to his first single, "Life of the Party", and addressed low self-esteem, depression and awareness of self-harm.[108] They relaunched their campaign for the second year in a row in 2015, where the campaign was hashtagged online as NotesFromShawn. He partnered with BlendApp with the goal of raising up to $25,000, where $1 was raised for every signup and positive message shared on the application.[109] The campaign was relaunched for a third year in a row in 2016.[110]

He has also worked with Pencils of Promise, a non-profit organization that builds schools and helps raise the quality of education for developing countries, raising $25,000 to build a school in Ghana.[111]

In September 2017, after witnessing the devastation of the earthquake in Mexico City, Mendes created the Mexico Earthquake Relief Fund in conjunction with the American Red Cross and donated $100,000 towards relief efforts.[112]

In 2018, Mendes worked with Omaze to raise funds through donations to support the WE Schools program, a movement aiming to support youth through educational services and mentorship. Mendes encouraged his fans to help the cause while giving the donors a chance to attend his upcoming concert tour.[113]

In September 2018, Mendes took part in the annual Global Citizen festival held at Central Park, New York City.[114] He performed, alongside other artists such as Janelle Monáe, John Legend, and Janet Jackson, and raised awareness regarding the importance of education and children's lack of access to education around the world, particularly young women. Ahead of the event, he took to social media to reach out to Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, thanking the Prime Minister for leading the initiative for Leave No Girl Behind, a movement whose goal is to empower girls through workshops and programs,[115] and expressing his willingness to talk more about the project. He also encouraged his fans to support the movement. In response, the Prime Minister thanked Mendes and stated that "The more people we have fighting for girls' education, the better! Let's talk."[116]

In October 2018, Mendes, together with producer Teddy Geiger, released a cover of "Under Pressure" by the British rock band Queen and David Bowie.[117] The single was part of a series of covers of Queen's songs, released in celebration of Queen's biopic Bohemian Rhapsody.[118] The proceeds from the single were donated to the Mercury Phoenix Trust, an organization founded by Queen bandmembers after Freddie Mercury's death, which helps fight against HIV/AIDS.[119] Queen's manager, Jim Beach, expressed his gratitude to Mendes and Universal Music Group for helping the cause.[120]

On October 20, 2018, Mendes performed along with other artists such as Khalid, NF, Marshmello, Meghan Trainor, and Ella Mai at The Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles for the "We Can Survive" event. The event was organized to raise funds for Young Survival Coalition, in an effort to support young women who were diagnosed with breast cancer.[121]

In August 2019, Mendes announced the launch of the Shawn Mendes Foundation, with the aim to "inspire and empower his fans and today’s youth to bring about positive change in the world and advocate for issues they care most about."[122] On 8th January, 2020, Mendes announced that both he and his Shawn Mendes Foundation will be donating an undisclosed sum of money to causes including Australia's Red Cross, the New South Wales Rural Fire Service, and South Australia Country Fire Service, to help ease the strain on those impacted by the devastating fires that are tearing through parts of the country.[123]

Personal life

Mendes has been open about his struggles with anxiety, which he disclosed publicly through "In My Blood", a track from his third studio album. He declared that he had been undergoing therapy in order to help him deal with the mental health condition, stating:

I spoke to a therapist a couple of times [...] Therapy is what works for you. Therapy is listening to music and running on the treadmill, therapy is going to dinner with your friends—it's something that distracts you, that helps you heal and so it just depends on what you think therapy is. I made a conscious effort to be more connected to the people in my life. I found I was closing myself off from everybody, thinking that would help me battle it then realizing the only way I was going to battle it was completely opening up and letting people in.[124]

With regard to speculation about his sexuality, Mendes stated, "First of all, I'm not gay. Second of all, it shouldn't make a difference if I was or if I wasn't. The focus should be on the music and not my sexuality."[125][126][127]

Since July 2019, he has been dating Cuban-American singer Camila Cabello. However, the relationship has garnered controversy, as both were accused of attempting to form a relationship for publicity,[128][129][130] but Mendes insisted it is "definitely not a publicity stunt".[131]

gollark: I suppose you could say that the "negative contribution to society" outweighs the positive one, which is more likely to be true for illegal stuff than legal stuff, at least.
gollark: Sure?
gollark: Ultimately someone is paying for these jobs, but there's frequently enough indirection that it becomes nearly-meaningless.
gollark: They mostly at least vaguely contribute to stuff in some way, or they wouldn't exist.
