Normani Reveals Devastating Reason She Canceled BET Awards Performance

Normani suffered a “really bad” injury at rehearsals.
Normani says she’s “frustrated and disappointed” about missing the BET Awards but had to cancel after injuring herself at rehearsals for her highly-anticipated performance at the ceremony on Sunday. She discussed her decision not to take the stage in a statement on her Instagram Story.

“I am more frustrated and disappointed than anyone believe me,” she began. “I wanted to get on here and give you guys an update letting you know that while in rehearsals for BET I had a really bad accident and injured myself. I am normally good for powering through under any circumstance but unfortunately due to my doctor’s orders, I am just not able to make this performance happen. I desperately wanted to give you my best on that stage but performing would delay my healing. I have been going through my process and doing my best to make sense of my feelings regarding this. I am devastated and hate feeling like a disappointment to you but I have to focus on recovering at this time.”
