SHAWN MENDES - Before They Were Famous
SUBSCRIBE: http://www.youtube.com/MrMcCruddenMichael
BEFORE Shawn Mendes would become the opeing act for Taylor Swift on the North American leg of her 1989 tour.
BEFORE Shawn Mendes would be globally billed as the next Justin Beiber.
BEFORE Justin would coyly say in a radio interview, ‘who is Shawn Mendes?’
BEFORE Shawn had millions of die hard fans on Facebook, Vine, Instagram and Twitter.
Shawn Mendes was a student at Pine Ridge Secondary School in Pickering, Ontario – not yet even in highschool when he blew up. Previous to this he was a regular kid who played ice hockey, soccer and enjoyed long boarding with his pals. In June 2012 Vine was launched and in August Shawn uploaded a clip of himself singing an acoustic version of Bieber’s ‘As Long as You Love Me’ just for the heck of it. When he logged on to his account the next morning, it had 10,000 likes and his follower count had gone through the roof!
Surprisingly a few of you guys did ask for this one – this kid is blowing up! Next video we get back to rap and hip hop, so sit tight and enjoy this one, also be sure to let me know who to document next.
Shawn Mendes was born Aug 8 1998 in Pickering, Ontario Canada, in a town located an hour outside of Downtown Toronto.
He is the son of Karen, a real estate agent, and Manuel Mendes, a businessman, selling bar and restaurant supplies in Toronto. His father is of Portuguese descent and his mother is English.
Shawn got started in music in elementary school where he gave it a go and got a fantastic response from fellow students, so he was motivated to keep pushing forward.
He also got his hands on a guitar and taught himself to play by watching tutorial videos on YouTube. He would also pass the time watching others pour out their souls online singing covers of their favorite artists and he wanted to do the same.
My name is Michael McCrudden documenting the life of Shawn Mendes prior to fame, here for you on Before They Were Famous.
