Supermodel Cara Delevingne has unveiled the release date for her debut album and said she “cannot wait” for the public to hear her new songs.
The 34-year-old is one of the most recognisable faces in the modelling world after her career skyrocketed in the 2010s, walking for a number of high fashion houses including Burberry, Chanel, Dior and Marc Jacobs.
The star went on to pursue a successful acting career, which saw her feature in films such as 2015’s Paper Towns and 2016’s Suicide Squad alongside Margot Robbie, as well as TV series Only Murders In The Building.
Delevingne has since moved into the world of music and recently released her first songs: I Forgot, Out Of My Head and Crazy, Baby – the latter of which came out on Friday.
In a post to Instagram, she revealed that her debut album – titled Not Normal – will be released on September 25th.
Delevingne also shared the album cover to her almost 40 million followers, which features her wearing a black bodysuit while sitting in a dark room with her arms and legs tangled up in many red and blue wires.
In the caption, she wrote: “Writing songs over the years has been such an important part of my life, and it has been so special to finally start sharing these songs with you this past summer.
“I cannot wait for you to hear them all. If any of you connect with even one song, that’s all I’ve ever wanted.”
Delevingne performed a number of shows this summer including in Berlin, Paris, Barcelona, London, Los Angeles and New York amid the release of her new music.
The multi-talented star has previously spoken about how she played instruments such as the drums, guitar and piano in her youth and admitted to writing her own music as a teenager.
In a recent interview with Vogue Magazine, she said: “I was in a couple bands during school, but whenever it came to the songs I’d written, I would lock myself in the bathroom and play them, because I just didn’t want anyone to listen.
“They were always for me.”
The star has also described her move into music as a “rebirth”, calling it a healthy outlet for her self-expression.
Following her rapid rise to fame as a teenager, the pressure of the industry began to weigh on Delevingne, who has spoken out about how she was modelling during a “rough time”.
She has also been open about her struggles with her mental health and addiction, stating she entered rehab in 2022 after taking a break from the limelight.
