Wonder at This Clip of Shawn Mendes Showering

Screengrab

“Time to surrender.”

Trust the thirsty gays to watch two minutes and twenty-three seconds of carefully curated footage paired with inspiring music, and focus primarily on a brief shower scene. Yes, we are including ourselves in that category.

Shawn Mendes has a new documentary coming out ahead of his new album, and he wants us to know that he’s just a normal guy. “This isn’t the story about a famous musician,” says Mendes. “This is the story about a guy growing up.” A perfectly normal guy with perfectly normal home video footage, doing perfectly normal vocal runs casually on camera, and with a perfectly normal six-pack that he shows off in the shower.

Okay okay, we might be poking fun, but it is clear that Mendes is attempting to drive home the message that music idols are not “born legendary,” but are instead made through hard work and a genuine love of music. “You first get on the stage and ego comes rushing in,” says Mendes. “I’m just a guy and I love music.”

Whatever you think about this particular take, it’s hard to deny the emotional impact of the trailer. What else could you expect from a 22-year-old who was Men.com’s most-searched name of 2019? It’s hardly surprising that there may be a slight ego boost from say, reading endless thirst tweets about yourself.

I Wonder, the documentary in question follows Mendes during his massive 104-show tour and the events that ensued both on and off stage. There will be laughter, there will be tears, there will be shower scenes.

I Wonder premieres December 4, ahead of his latest studio album of a similar name, Wonder. I think it may be time to get off our soapbox, and do as Mendes would do on stage. Surrender.
