Swift also took a moment to be a fangirl for fellow pop star [Camila Cabello](http://time.com/5098882/camila-cabello-album-review/) — and, in a sweet show of support to show performer Cabello, shared with the world a new nickname for [the “Havana” singer.](http://time.com/4995186/havana-video-camila-cabello/) Swift surprise-joined [a fan’s livestream on Instagram](http://people.com/music/taylor-swift-delicate-music-video/), commenting and sharing a number of updates, before dropping the nickname for Cabello, who is set to [join Swift as an opener](http://time.com/5182133/taylor-swift-reputation-tour-camila-cabello-charli-xcx/) with Charli XCX on her upcoming _Reputation_ world tour starting this spring. “BABY C ON I HAVE TO GO WATCH THIS I LOVE YOU GUYS BYE,” she commented brightly at one point during the livestream. (Her other comments included a shout-out to friend and [collaborator Ed Sheeran](http://time.com/5014740/taylor-swift-reputation-track-list/), compliments on one of her fan’s outfits, and greetings from her family.) Swift is known to make these kinds of direct outreach to fans, whether it’s through inviting them to private [album listening events](http://time.com/5025295/taylor-swift-target/) as she did before _Reputation_, popping by local Targets, or lurking on Tumblr and liking supporters’ posts. In any case, looks like Swift and “Baby C” have a budding friendship that both fanbases can support. (Swift is on her sixth album; Cabello recently released her [debut self-titled album](http://time.com/5098882/camila-cabello-album-review/) after leaving the girl group Fifth Harmony.) Perhaps this means [the girl squad](http://time.com/4847105/taylor-swift-fourth-of-july-squad-2017/) is in a [rebuilding phase.](http://time.com/4849054/lorde-on-taylor-swift/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5195537/taylor-swift-camila-cabello/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5195537/taylor-swift-camila-cabello/"},"headline":"Taylor Swift Has an Adorable Nickname for Camilla Cabello","datePublished":"2018-03-12T15:30:19.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:51:18.970Z","description":"In a comment on a fan's livestream during Sunday's iHeartRadio Music Awards, Taylor Swift sent a sweet message to performer Camila Cabello.","url":"https://time.com/5195537/taylor-swift-camila-cabello/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Music"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5195537/taylor-swift-camila-cabello/","name":"Taylor Swift Has an Adorable Nickname for Camilla Cabello"}}]}] ```
