Several years ago, Camila Cabello went viral after performing at the White House in 2021, pronouncing "Christmas" as "Quismois" while singing holiday classic, "I'll Be Home For Christmas," and now, she's making light of the situation while also sharing that this time of year can be triggering because of the memory.
In a new video posted to TikTok, Cabello jokingly responded to a question about her pronunciation by mouthing along to a sound of laughter and stating, "No, no, but it's not funny at the end of the day, is it? It's serious." Cabello has previously addressed the meme, even posting a playful video in 2022 where she pretended to coach herself on proper pronunciation while singing "I'll Be Home for Christmas."
Camila captioned the clip, "December is a triggering time for me," while standing in front of a Christmas tree.

Despite the lighthearted approach, Cabello admits that the memory lingers. After finishing up her "YOURS, C TOUR," promoting her latest album, C,XOXO, the star has been laying low and taking a break from the spotlight.
In fact, Cabello recently shared with her Instagram followers that she's been on a digital detox, deleting social media apps and focusing on novels and films to recharge her creativity, writing, "This digital detox has been doing wonders for me. I felt the instinct to delete all social media and news and media apps from my phone (except Letterboxd hehe) - and am recharging my spirit with novels and films, and not trying to fill in every second of silence with a podcast or music or vlog lol - at first the restlessness was relentless, but now I notice so much more spaciousness in my mind and spirit - I’m so curious to keep creating music from this place next year. that’s why I’ve been a bit awol, but i miss you guys , and love you, and hope you’re taking care of yourselves."
