AngularJS ng-show confusion

Question

I have this in my template

<h1 ng-show={{campaignDataEmpty}}>You have no campaigns defined</h1>
{{campaignDataEmpty}}

When I breakpoint in the Chrome developer console, I can confirm that $scope.campaignDataEmpty is false.

The page displays

You have no campaigns defined
false

How can this be?

Remove the curley braces! ngShow already takes an Angular expression.

ng-show="campaignDataEmpty"
