Promptly realizing her mistake, she wrote in a second message, "Wrong Shawn. Sorry. Also, I do realize it is NOT Thanksgiving. Haha."

The 23-year-old singer reacted 'haha' over the erroneous text and wrote, "hahahaha that's okay i figured it was an inside joke."

For the unversed, this is not the first time the singers have made headlines.

In January last year, the 'Senorita' singer took to his Instagram handle and shared a photo of himself shirtless with his arms outstretched in a grassy field.

"Grateful. The sun, coffee, my health, my family, old Mariah Carey songs, music, humans!!!" he captioned the snap.

Just one day later, the 'Queen of Christmas' tweeted a recreation of Mendes' selfie with the slightly altered caption, "Grateful. The sun, tea, my health, my family, old Shawn Mendes songs, music, humans!!!" (ANI)
