She has long been loved for her support of the LGBTQ community and last night Camila Cabello celebrated Pride Month by dancing with a rainbow flag wrapped around her.

Fans at the 21-year-old singer‘s show in Brixton, London, were thrilled as performed with the flag and wished them, “Happy Pride.”

Cabello also projected images of the Womens and Immigration Marches during her performance, and told her crowd: “United by the thing that we love most, which is music”.

Audience shared pictures on Twitter, with one writing: “camila + pride = happy me” and another posting: “happy pride month also @Camila_Cabello SPEAKING OF PRIDE YOU SAID YOU LOVED MY FLAG i love you so so so much please never change x”

While someone else said they were “in awe” as they posted a video.

The Havana singer shot to fame in Fifth Harmony, but quit in December 2016 and has since cemented her pop icon status thanks to a wildly successful solo career.

Her support for the LGBTQ community is nothing new, back in March 2015 she revealed that she inspired a transgender woman named Camila Joe to make her transition.

In an Instgram post she wrote: “The stunning, confident, magical woman standing next to me is named Camila Joe.

“I met her during a signing last year when her name was ‘Joey’ and she told me I inspired her to have the courage to transition. And right before my eyes, today I saw a beautiful, confident woman (with IMMACULATE EYELINER by the way).

She added: “There’s a light in someone’s eyes when they become who they want to be. Today you lit up the whole room. i love you darlin. WORK THAT POSE.”
