“I’m sorry, I just passed out, but I’m back! I literally just passed out and now I’m back and I’m ready to read my notes,” she told the crowd before delivering her speech.
“Hi everybody, first of all! Thanks for being here. I wrote this down so I wouldn’t forget. All I can say is this was such an incredible experience,” the star continued. “I believed in this movie so much, that all I wanted was to enjoy it, and not f*** it up. And I’m happy I didn’t f*** it up. And I’m grateful for everybody who believed in me enough to give me the opportunity,” Cabello said.

Talking about her role in the movie, Cabello said in a statement, “I have been performing for a long time but playing such an iconic character was on another level. In this story, she is realizing what she really wants from her life, and it’s not a prince. She wants a career and she is being told that’s impossible. I love that she dares to be different.”
