Camila Cabello’s Global Impact to be Honored at Billboard Latin Women in Music Awards

Five-time Billboard Hot 100 hitmaker Camila Cabello is set to receive the prestigious Global Impact Award at the 2024 Billboard Latin Women in Music awards this June. While known for chart-topping singles like “Havana” and “Señorita,” the Cuban-American singer’s work goes far beyond the studio.

Through partnerships with organizations like This Is About Humanity and the Miami Freedom Project, Cabello has tirelessly advocated for immigrant families and the LGBTQ+ community in her hometown of Miami. She also founded the Healing Justice Project to provide mental health resources for racial and environmental justice organizers nationwide. “There’s different ways of doing that, through art and music, and I always try to keep myself accountable.”” Cabello told Billboard.

Born in Havana to immigrant parents who came to the U.S. seeking opportunity, the 27-year-old’s work ethic and compassion stem from her roots. “I’m so proud of my family history, and proud of my work ethics, and any sort of strength or drive that I have is from hearing their stories. I really feel that I come from a family of f–king hustlers. My mom and dad never lost that, and even my grandparents. I feel that so much of that is carried in my bloodline. There’s something carried in our story that I feel makes me handle life and look at life in a different way” she explained.

On June 28, Cabello will release her highly anticipated fourth studio album ‘C,XOXO,’ inspired by the eclectic rhythms of Miami. She describes the project as “the ultimate Miami art piece.” Fans can catch the performer accepting her Global Impact honor during the Billboard Latin Women in Music ceremony airing June 9 on Telemundo and Peacock.
