What's the tattoo?

**Camila Mendes** (1:38)
I got it after Riverdale. It's a pearl.

**Jay Shetty** (1:40)
Oh.

**Camila Mendes** (1:41)
Because Veronica, my character on Riverdale, wore pearls all the time. Awesome. I got it when we wrapped.

**Jay Shetty** (1:47)
Hey, it's Jay. I don't know what your day's been like, but I was just thinking about you for a minute. And I hope you're being a little patient with yourself because you deserve it. And yeah, I'll talk to you soon.
It's amazing to finally have you here. I've been watching your interviews for years.

**Camila Mendes** (2:14)
Likewise.

**Jay Shetty** (2:15)
I've been obsessed over this whole press run that you've just done for Masters of the Universe. It's incredible to just watch you crush it. Like if I can say that.

**Camila Mendes** (2:25)
Thank you.

**Jay Shetty** (2:26)
Me and my team are talking about this. We're like, whenever we see a clip of you doing anything, it's like so fun, effortless.

**Camila Mendes** (2:32)
Oh, wow.

**Jay Shetty** (2:32)
It feels like you're having a great time. And it just like oozes through the screen. And of course, your fiance is such a sweet man, Rudy, who we were just saying I first started talking to like eight years ago.

**Camila Mendes** (2:44)
Which is crazy.

**Jay Shetty** (2:45)
Yeah.

**Camila Mendes** (2:45)
Instagram buddies.

**Jay Shetty** (2:46)
Instagram buddies. He's so talented and incredible. So thank you for being here.

**Camila Mendes** (2:50)
Thank you for having me.

**Jay Shetty** (2:51)
I wanted to ask you, so at 31, you have your own production company. You're starring in this huge, huge movie, doing all these incredible things.
What are you having the most fun with right now?

**Camila Mendes** (3:02)
I think what I'm most excited about in life right now is like building my home and my future and my family. Like I just want to like cultivate a sense of groundedness, have my sanctuary. Like that's what like feels fun to me right now.

**Jay Shetty** (3:16)
It's so beautiful being able to do that. I'm an interior design geek.

**Camila Mendes** (3:20)
Yeah.

**Jay Shetty** (3:20)
It's literally my favorite thing in the world. And so I'm obsessed with textures and colors and tones.
And I remember just getting so lost in it. And the way I like to design is I like to design rooms like my mind. Yeah. And so it's like, how do I want to feel in this space? And how does my mind want to feel in this space? How do you think about the different spaces in your home?

**Camila Mendes** (3:42)
When I got my first home, like the first home I ever owned, I had like no idea what my home aesthetic would be or anything. And then I sort of like, it was a process of getting to know myself. And I found my own style and taste through that experience. And I was so happy with where it landed, because I was like, wow, this is me. This is all just a reflection of me and my mind and my creativity. And then I like, right when I finished, not too long after, like I ended up moving out and moving in with Rudy.
