The 25-year-old singer rose to stardom as a member of Fifth Harmony, and while teasing her solo album for several years, she’s always been adamant about taking her time.
“Everyone thinks, ‘Oh, well, she should’ve dropped her album during ‘Motivation,’ which to everyone from an outside perspective seemed like the perfect time,” Normani, who had chart success with her 2019 single ‘Motivation,’ revealed. But, for me, I was just leaving the band and needed to find out what I wanted my sound to be.”
Normani noted that she was able to figure out what was essential to her by taking her time.
“I needed to figure out what I wanted to talk about and what was essential to me,” she said on the “Today” show. And I’ve had the opportunity to do so. As a result, this will mostly serve as an introduction to who I am.”
Normani confessed earlier this month that she has always felt “extremely ignored” in Fifth Harmony.
The singer was in the hit female trio with Ally Brooke, Dinah Jane, Lauren Jauregui, and Camila Cabello, but she admits that being the “only black girl” wasn’t easy.
“For someone who has always been disregarded and being the only black girl in a group, it was a lot for me mentally,” she explained. There were instances when I didn’t feel heard or valued, and my verbal skills wasn’t helping.
According to Deadline, the 24-year-old actress will star opposite Soo Joo Park, Brock O’Hurn, Laird Hamilton, and Duke Nicholson in the dark comedy.
Tony Kaye is directing the film, which is based on a scenario by Vito Schnabel and Jeff Solomon.
‘The Trainer’ has been in the works for over a decade and is based on Vito’s original story.
The film follows a Los Angeles fitness instructor who attempts to achieve fame and money by pursuing his own version of the American Dream.
For the time being, though, specifics about the new cast members’ roles are being kept under wraps.
