I don't think the hate is that viral. I haven't seen it once on my TL. I only see people crying about the hate. People gotta learn that twitter is very echochamber and small bubbles. What's viral on one part of the app is never seen on the other side ever. Normani should be performing any and everywhere and building herself back up. Twitter is not a real place, all the artists twitter likes just flop endlessly. Normani needs to get tiktok on her side if anything. Edit: I found this 95k (!!!) liked tweet defending Normani's performance. Twitter is really different worlds haha. "I'll always defend this diva because she had everything for her career to take off, but she decided to pause her career just to take care of her parents with cancer, and the gays here on Twitter keep attacking the poor thing" Also, people acting like this is some random university and it's PRINCETON is CRAZYYY!!!! One of the top universities in the country being downplayed to insult Normani. The pay was good so she shouldn't even care. Top Uni's pay good for these lil gigs. 😭

A good piece of this is incorrect but I appreciate your enthusiasm. Labels typically aren't involved in booking stages for the artist. That's a function of management. Brandon was very hands on with the 2018-19 run and getting her the opening spot on Sweetener tour. I guess people don't know but Brandon is a nepo baby so he had industry connections via his dad lol. He knows tops industry players personally through that. He was a mess but does deserve his credit. Now for Lydia to impress me, just keep Normani booked to a gig every month from now on. No month should pass without a brand deal or performance. If chopped influencers, Love Island people, and 5 minute tiktok famous "artists" can get monthly things, Normani can too. So far Lydia has done good from last Fall to now (given Normani has no new music out yet she's always around doing stuff again).

The waves x one in a million mashup, YUP! She did this for me!!!

Did we all buy our collector boxes yet? B'day deserves nothing less since it is her best album.

Basically if you happen to come across one like a feed post or a tiktok live, and start interacting, you'll get a bunch more from that point on. The algorithm for it is aggressive.

I was about to say, he hasn't been relevant since Tumblr was relevant. How does he have money for trips when he doesn't even act in anything?

It's lowkey scary cause that feels like the only conclusion here. Something very dark will happen.

Truly! She set herself up. That was not the crowds' fault. If I was in the crowd, I'm not sounding like a banshee for no reason.

Honestly, good on her for waking up. Nicki Minaj brainwashed a generation of kids and those kids never matured fully. Like as crazy as Lady Gaga fans were at her peak, those people grew up and got real jobs and moved on (but still support her music in a more mature way, no shrines). Nicki stans are in a cult, any normal fan should have realized she's not mentally well and distanced from all of this behavior. We will see more barbz waking up as time goes on. You'll see this same type of thing happen with MAGA once Trump is out of office and becoming a figure of the past. Cults are hard to leave.

Laura ate…dog food? On CAMERA? I feel like that needs to be discussed further cause WHAT is even the context?

For men* Women get flagged for literally anything lmao. Men especially OF guys get away with A LOT and for months maybe years before they finally get banned. It's sexist AI moderation if you ask me

Mind you, he still does it. Like what are we even talking about here. I typically don't pop into Hasan threads or topics because he has rabid stans who defend anything evil he has and will ever do, so I'm not surprised by this deflection. If the roles of this thread were flipped, nobody would defend the congress person still, so that's enough evidence to me that bias is at play. Hasan is not a good person. Just because he supports M4A for freeing Palestine (for examples), doesn't give him a free pass to be an awful person. And let's be clear, the congress person should not be spending their time fighting Hasan or lying about his record or statements. Waste of tax dollars.

This feels like a backwards step for her. She should have done another fun crossover type song like Coconut Water.

People defend Hasan as though he hasn't said some of the most vile sht for fun and subs related and unrelated to politics. This random congress person is non factor in the grand scheme meanwhile Hasan has a larger platform than any individual member of congress, in either party, bar like AOC or Bernie (who are literally aligned with him regularly). The overreactions in this thread are silly asf. Hasan is not a victim and attacks actual victims and people (!!!) regularly for content (unrelated to politics mind you). When he was WRONLGY attacking that black girl on tiktok nobody gaf and supported her.

Gaga is paving the way for gays to be billionaires and own crypto. Go gaga, yes mama, slay the house boots hunnie chile down.
