hawn Mendes was born in 1998 in Toronto, Canada.
From Portuguese and English parents, his good
looks and mix of Ed Sheeran meets Justin Bieber's

very young age. At 15, he was signed by Island Records. His
debut studio album Handwritten delivered three hit singles:
“Life of the Party", "Something Big and "Stitches". “Life of
the Party” entered the Billboard 100 singles chart at number
24, making Mendes the youngest artist to land a debut
single in the Top 25.

“My advice to anyone with a dream is to never stop
pursuing it.”
- Shawn Mendes
