The 23-year-old singer is showing off her incredible dance moves in the epic new music video for her new single “Motivation” and we just can’t stop watching.
“I recorded this song a while back,†Normani told Rolling Stone earlier this month. “And it’s crazy because, I’ll be on Twitter, and [fans] will be like, ‘Sis, where’s the new music? Where’s the new music? I’m like, ‘Guys, it’s coming. I promise it’s coming.’ I shot the video probably a month ago. It’s going to be worth the wait…It’s an upbeat [song]. It’s a feel good record. I think that everybody will really love it. It was the first opportunity that I had to have fun.â€
Becky G sees inspiration everywhere, especially in newcomer musicians who have a “superstar x-factor.”
Chatting with E! News at the BBMAs last night in Vegas, the 21-year-old singer named “my homies Khalid and Normani” being two musicians she looks to often.
“I think that they just have that thing that, you look at them and they know exactly who it is that they are, where it is that they wanna go,” Becky shared. “But it’s just a matter of surrounding yourself with good people that are gonna allow you to explore those ideas and that creativity.”
She adds, “When I look at them, you know, we all grew up loving music and being inspired by it, but it’s another thing to actually pursue it. It’s intimidating but it’s also very inspiring.”
Normani released a statement, writing that the cancellation “truly disappoints me as I know it disappoints you,” adding that she’d been “working harder than I ever have in rehearsals for the last week to ensure that I give you the best possible performance.”
“Thank you to the BBMAs for being so understanding and patient. We all tried incredibly hard to work through these obstacles to figure out any and every possible way to make this work,” she continued.
“I love you all and Sam very much,” Normani wrote. “I’m praying that he’s able to take the time he needs. I’m with you.”
Normani stuns in a bright, neon yellow dress at the YouTube Music Artist Lounge during 2019 Coachella Music Festival on Sunday (April 14) in Indio, Calif.
That same day, the 22-year-old singer hit the stage with Khalid to perform their collaboration “Love Lies” during the annual music and arts festival.
Normani is describing what it’s been like opening for Ariana Grande on her Sweetener Tour.
The former Fifth Harmony member told People that even though she has known the “break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored” singer for a “very long time,†they haven’t really had the chance to just “be normal, and really enjoy each other” because of their busy schedules.
“We wear face masks, wake up really late, have breakfast, that kind of jam … just typical girls!†Normani said about their friendship during their months on the road together. “I feel like she’s had an incredible year, especially going through as much as she has. The way that she’s handled things, not only as an artist, but as a woman — I think she’s the definition of resilience.â€
“There are so many women around me, I’m really inspired,†she added about the dancers and the band, explaining that “it’s like a sleepover on wheels.â€
Normani lit up the stage in blue on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday night (March 13)!
The 22-year-old former Fifth Harmony songstress served as the musical guest and teamed up with 6LACK for a stellar performance of their collaboration “Waves.”
During the performance, Normani and her crew of dancers got in formation while showing out with their synchronized moves. 6LACK emerged for his brief verse before Normani capped off the sultry set on a high note.
Tonight Show‘s very own Questlove took to Twitter to praise her performance: “After some 2000 summed odd episodes of Late Night/Tonight I’ll say that @Normani’s performance on #FallonTonight was one of the most impressive,” The Roots drummer said.
