Fifth Harmony forever.
Normani is up for three awards at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, all for her sultry collaboration with Cardi B, “Wild Side.”
The 26-year-old singer’s Fifth Harmony bandmate Lauren Jauregui quickly took to Twitter to congratulate her pal. “MANI!!! F— yes!! So deserved!!!! [fire emoji] YAYYYYY,” she tweeted.
The love fest didn’t end there. Normani replied to Jauregui’s sweet reaction, writing, “my heart. thank you angel. ily so much,” alongside a series of emotional emojis.
“Wild Side” was originally released July 16, 2021. The collab came nearly one year after Normani appeared in the music video for Cardi and Megan Thee Stallion’s Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “WAP.”
