At the top of 2001, Christina Aguilera, P!nk, Mya, and Lil Kim rocked the music industry and history books alike with ‘Lady Marmalade’ – their unexpected, chart-topping remake of the 1974 Labelle classic of the same name.
As the song celebrated its 20th anniversary earlier this year, some fans of the four divas have been calling for a reunion to pay tribute to their soaring rendition while other music lovers – as evidenced Wednesday (September 22) – think it’s time the sexy tune be given an update.
See what we mean inside:
Ariana Grande fans (affectionately called #Arianators) may be reveling in seeing their fave weekly on television via her stint on this season of NBC reality singing competition ‘The Voice,’ but that doesn’t mean they’re not still hungry for new music.
Taking to Twitter Wednesday, one fan shared a fantasy roster of today’s top hitmakers who should revamp ‘Lady Marmalade.’ To the surprise of the poster, one of the artists mentioned – Normani – gave an exclamatory response to the suggestion.
The ‘Wild Side’ singer’s fans – affectionately called #NormaniNation – went wild at the retweet, a measure that certainly got fingers typing and lips moving.
Honestly, the notion isn’t too far-fetched given Megan Thee Stallion and Dua Lipa‘s rumored forthcoming collaboration as well as the previous one-off collaborations of the mentioned across the board (see: Stallion and Normani’s ‘Diamonds,’ Grande & Stallion’s ’34+35′ remix, Normani & Grande’s ‘Bad To You,’ Lipa & Normani’s shelved single, and more).
As of time reported, however, there are no official plans for any major artists to remake the ‘Moulin Rouge’ hit.
Nope! Leave it alone. 😤
Is this generation obsessed with repackaging old hits (and doing it worse, might I add) because they are:
A: incapable
B: lazy
C: untalented
D. all of the above
They probably said the same in 2001 🥱 tf
They didn’t. Because it didn’t apply.
Umm H*** NO!!!!!!!!!
Umm NO! PLEASE LEAVE IT ALONE! We don’t need y’all butchering that song! Just stop 🛑
That would be cute 😌
Patti and Missy must be involved for this to work
Hell NO. Make ya own original song then we’ll see how that’ll go. We are tired of the remakes and foolish reboots of films and songs. Leave them tf alone smh everyone is truly lacking authenticity of originality. It’s cool to be inspired but damn everything feels more like copycats
I agree. Most artist today lack musical direction. 💯
I’m dead what vocals will nomadic bring o wait none cause she isn’t a vocalist and would bring nothing to the remake if one was made, plus the other girls yeah no.
She want a number 1 song so bad.
Shes trying to ride the success wave of dua, megan and ariana .
Notice all the other 3 ladies have albums and hits except normani
Normani is sweet but both her and dua lips shouldn’t be the picks for this, at least not yet. I’d rather see Billie Eilish than Dua because let’s be real, Dua is just another Ariana (respectfully). Normani needs to work on her presence. If I was gonna see it re-done honestly I would prefer the millennial girls do it looll I would wanna see Riri, Nicki, Miley Cyrus (I know but I also know you see it) and Ariana Grande.
If they reallly want the new girls Id say: Ariana, Billie, Chloe Bailey, Megan/Cardi/Doja
Now why would you want Miss Billie to be whispering in French about hot s**? 😭 no shade to what she does this is just not in her lane
LOL
In the original you had an ‘edge’ there with Pink, it wasn’t just a bunch of pop girls (pink was edging into her ‘rock’ phase) . I genuinely do think Billie and her ‘lil whispersv
would nail it…. lmao and that chorus is the only French there babes, think she can handle it. Normani, dua, ariana and Megan would be very flat.
Hahaha 🤣 norNanni doesn’t have the pipes to sing it. She a delusional bishhh lol
Jealous much?
Normani trying to use other famous people to get a number 1.
Dear normani, u are not on the same level with the other girls. U dont even have an album.
This girl is so lazy. She spends all her day on Twitter reading tweets by her delusional fans kissing her àss.
Normani really thinks she can ride the wave of other more successful more accomplished artists.
Normani really thinks she can have a successful career by collaborating with big names and people who are hot at the moment.
How many big names has this bìtch worked with?
Cardi
Nicki
Megan
Ariana
Sam Smith
Khalid
21 savage
Calvin Harris
Max Martin.
And her fans keep shouting “opportunities are not being given to normani cause she is dark skin”
No album out, but look at the big names that she has collaborated with so far.
How many new artists are being given this type of A list opportunities.
This girl is so delusional.
She really believes in Twitter hype.
Dear Normani, if they are gonna remake lady marmalade, what makes u think they will call u to be part of the remake? A girl like u who has no fan base, no career, no hit, no vocals, no accomplishment, nothing.
What are u gonna bring to the table?
Normani is really delusional. Its mental illness at this point
If they eventually remake lady marmalade and she doesn’t get a part, her mother and her delusional fans will start crying on Twitter
THEY ARE SABOTAGING MY DAUGHTER
THEY DONT WANT HER TO SUCCEED BECAUSE SHE IS DARK SKIN
THEY ARE THREATENED BY HER POWER.
😂😂
LAZY Normani spends all her time on Twitter ,
instead of her to go out and promote her crappy forgettable 15 minutes discography.
U see why chloe is gonna snatch her spot. Smh.
Miss chloe has already performed her new song TWICE on stage. A hard working artist.
The way she snuck herself in, as if shes on the same level with ariana, dua and megan. She really believes she’s a big artist.
Girl you can’t just insert yourself into stuff, you have to work for it. Something Normani knows nothing about.
Lingerie was shocking in 2001.
For the video to shock in 2021,
the girls would need BURKAHS
since they’re all naked now. 👀
Yeah do a collab ’bout nuns!😂
Ohhhh hell nooooooooo. Flopmami ain’t even Mya’s level💅🏿 Case of ex #2 solo hit, f******* will never
Talk is big. It’s gonna end up like rita ora’s girls…. Even Cardi can’t save the track💅🏿 Why did she collaborating with other two flops at the first place?
Y’all don’t remember Dua lipa removed f*******’s weak ass vocal from it ain’t me 😂🤣😂🤣 so the collaboration won’t happened💅🏿
Also Megan won’t working with f******* coz they flopped with that diamond song 💅🏿
Yeeeeessssir!!! Here for this!!! 🤩🔥🔥

U funny c u n t, you are here to get dragged 💅🏿
The mfs who do LESS be having the MOST s*** to say…STFU btch 🤣🤣🤣
💅🏿💅🏿I’m here to stay. Low life! This blog is only for Royal members like me da real DIVa. Pleasant is not allowed 🚫
LOL you sound like a fckn fool. Have fun in the comment section btch 🤣
Absolutely not! Normani can’t sing! I’ve just seen her strip.
Guess they’re remaking remakes now….. *sigh* why can’t her team get her off Twitter and on the promo trail? I’d drag TGJ for posting about a simple retweet like it’s news but it’s Normani’s own fault for not putting out newsworthy stuff.
Don’t touch this classic remake. They don’t have the range.
