Shawn Mendes’ ‘Something Big’ Video: Teen Star Rounds Up The Town
Have you become a Shawn Mendes fan over the past year? You're not the only one: the former Vine star has quickly fashioned a promising mainstream music career with a Top 40 hit on the Hot 100 and an upcoming tour supporting Taylor Swift. The music video for new single "Something Big" reflects that gradual accrual of supporters, as Mendes starts out the day alone, then with his pals, and then with the entire block behind his back.
