Camila Cabello celebrated the Fourth of July at billionaire Michael Rubin’s annual White Party in the Hamptons, and she took to Instagram to share a series of snaps from the star-studded bash.

In the photos, the “I Luv It” singer is seen posing in a white backless top and matching maxi skirt, with her newly blonde hair in a messy updo. In one of the pictures, she’s sitting in a chair opposite Drake, who’s smiling from ear-to-ear while enjoying a cocktail.

Cabello opened up about collaborating with Drizzy in an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, noting that it all started in the DMs. “I feel like, at least from what I know of myself, I feel like we’re musically aligned in a lot of ways,” she said of herself and Drake. “I think we have a lot of the same taste, and lyrically as well. I actually slid into his DMs too, and I was like, ‘I’ve been listening to you so much for this album,’ a lot of the wordplay and my aspiration for bars.”

She continued, “I DMed him and then I played him my album and he f—d with it. I sent the idea for ‘Hot Uptown,’ and I wrote my part. I sent it back to him, and we chopped it to it felt like a duet. Then when he re-worked on his parts again, he gave me an outro which was the ‘UUUgly part,’” she recalled.
