During the PBS special 'In Performance at the White House: Spirit of the Season', which aired on December 21, the 24-year-old singer performed a mariachi rendition of 'I'll Be Home for Christmas'. For her special performance, Cabello had her dad Alejandro by her side.
"My mom is a Cuban immigrant, my dad immigrated to the United States from Mexico and recently also became a citizen. The fact that I'm able to pay tribute to my heritage and represent Latinos and also have my dad be sharing this moment with me it's kind of, like, a crazy moment," Cabello told PBS in a video recently shared with E! News.
