Camila Cabello was the epitome of chic in an eye-caching black satin gown with a revealing cutout across the bust while arriving to the 2023 Premios Juventud Awards in San Juan, Puerto Rico on Thursday evening.
As she sauntered down the red carpet in a pair of platform heels, the four-time Grammy nominee, 26, oozed confidence as she shot photographers a smoldering stare and close-lipped smile.
Her long brunette hair cascaded past her shoulders in loose waves as she attended at the awards show for Spanish-speaking celebrities in the areas of film, music, sports, fashion, and pop culture, presented by Univision.
On Instagram, the Shameless hitmaker revealed her figure-hugging, floor-length dress was from The Attico.
Meanwhile, her tresses were styled by hairdresser Dimitris Giannetos and makeup done by Patrick Ta.
Fashion stylists Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn were credited with styling her look for the night.

Shakira, who skipped the red carpet, took home eight awards, including Best Pop/Urban Track.
Upon learning she would be taking home the most trophies of the night, the mother-of-two gushed on stage: ‘The best luck I’ve had is with my fans. You inspire me to be better and to never give up.’
‘To be honest, when I had self-doubt, you made me believe in myself again. When I feel fragile, you give me strength. You’ve protected me, you’ve been loyal. You celebrate my joy and are with me in my struggles. It’s because of you I want to be a better musician, a better person,’ she continued.
For the occasion, the Hips Don’t Lie crooner wore a red minidress, which showcased her incredible curves.
At one point during the night, she was seen hugging her sons Milan, ten, and Sasha, seven, who were in the audience.
Like Cabello, Shakira was honored with the Agent of Change Award.
As she accepted the honor, the Colombian powerhouse said: ‘We live in an ambiguous world, surrounded by good music, beauty, TikTok dances, filtered selfies. But there are realities that cannot be filtered or made up. There are places where people who are born poor die poor because they do not have the opportunity to receive a quality education.’
‘Places where, although it is still hard to believe, people are discriminated against because of their sexual preferences, the color of their skin or their social class,’ she continued. ‘It is an imperfect world, but fortunately it is constantly changing. And that is a truth that cannot be wasted. When my 10-year-old son tells me with sadness that a friend of his would like to change his skin color because he doesn’t feel part of it or that someone else is being pushed aside because of his preferences.’
She went on to say as a mother, it is her responsibility to ‘show him that he doesn’t have to be quiet’ and that ‘he can ‘raise his hand’ and use his voice to ‘complain about that and everything else he disagrees with.’
Speaking to her eldest directly, she said: ‘That’s the way it is, Milán. And I am relieved to see, I am very, very relieved to see that this youth knows how to do it more and more.’

‘In the social networks, you amplify the news that concerns us and bring to light stories that if it were not for them, if it were not for you, these stories would not be known. You question things, you point out injustice, you seek the truth. And today Milán and Sasha are here with me, which is a great joy for me. I want my children to understand that to be an agent of change you don’t have to be a female pop star,’ she added.
She urged listeners to understand that ‘you don’t have to be famous or rich’ to be ‘an agent of change.’
‘You just have to differentiate what is right from what is wrong. You just have to believe that it is possible to change things and not let anyone tell you otherwise,’ she encouraged. ‘That is power and you, the youth, have that power. And if you are angry and if you are uncomfortable with exclusion, and if you do not allow yourselves to be anesthetized by the pain of others.’
Shakira concluded: ‘If you raise your voice and do not lower your arms, then I can rest assured that my children and that you are and will be the hope of many and are also and will be the true agents of change.’
