      Honestly tho, she may have a great personality but as a fan I really don’t see it. I know she can sing, dance, she has the talent but she doesn’t connect with her audience. Of course we never truly know these stars but she has to start marketing herself…

    • @lovenspired
      @lovenspired Před 8 měsíci

      I definitely agree she needs to work on marketing herself and getting out there in the public more (i.e. social media) bc that's a huge part of building fan engagement these days. Meg, Chloe x Halle, Doja Cat grew huge fan bases so quickly and loyally in part of the effort they put into personal live streams and social media antics. Doja Cat was a live streaming queen and look how far it's taken her. I want Normani to have a big win and I hope she realizes that she can/needs to give her fans more than just music to root for and we'll support it. @@coquigirl0789

    The best performance of the night, with only a transparent box as a prop. Normani is beyond captivating on stage, it’s obvious that she puts a lot of thought into EVERYTHING that she does. Nothing about this performance was boring, people are just used to be distracted by other nonsense. They don’t know when a true performer is on stage, if there aren’t flashing lights, props, and upbeat music. Mani and those amazing dancers filled the stage with crisp movements. I didn’t breathe or blink until the performance was over. Every time I see her perform, my eyes never leave the screen.
    Her whole demeanor changes when she’s on stage. That’s how you know she’s a natural performer, always poised and classy with a dash of sexy. I’ve seen her perform live twice and her mic was always ON.
