When it comes to Normani's best performances, it's hard to pick just a few. The former Fifth Harmony member turned breakout solo star [1] is a true triple threat: she sings beautifully, she dances amazingly, and she's got that It factor [2] that elevates her from just another pop star to someone truly memorable. She's rocked the stage at major music award shows and late-night talk shows, plus a slew of appearances at festivals and, recently, as one of the opening acts on Ariana Grande [3]'s blockbuster Sweetener World Tour [4]. We're positive we'll be seeing lots more of Normani as her solo career takes off [5]. In the meantime, check out 10 of her best performances so far!
