Season 24 of ‘Dancing With The Stars’ came to climax last night and proved bittersweet for Fifth Harmony singer Normani Kordei.
For, on the one hand she and partner Val Chmerkovskiy lasted the distance and reached the finale after many weeks of achieving full scores.
However, Kordei was denied the coveted disco ball after dramatically placing 3rd.
A firm favorite throughout the competition, many were surprised at her snub, believing deliberate judge sabotage.
A view shared by a host of Kordei’s industry peers.
Zendaya tweeted…

We too were perplexed that Normani didn’t win. However, the exposure has been great and all signs point to Fifth Harmony dropping their new single next week. So we’re sure she’ll ultimately have the last laugh.
Rigged!…That’s why I refuse to watch since they did Mel B dirty and many others. Normandi is the best and was consistent through out the competition. Hopefully, this is a needed boost for Normandi stardom and Fifth Harmony to dominate the charts without Camila. #H4RMONY
they Did lil kim the same way….Racist AF
I knew she wouldn’t win. I remember during one of her dances there were girls visibly seething at how good she was. Sad but representative of the general public.
Terrible! Totally fixed.
Well roll on Fifth Harmony’s come back.
I didn’t even care for fifth harmony before but she made me somewhat of a fan through this. The girl is bad!
Well, Camilla is flopping on iTunes so…
They tried her. She had like perfect scores every week. tf
I’m sorry she played herself with tyhat flat was freestyle. Even though all her dances were flawless, historically the freestyle makes or breaks you in the competition.
*with that flat freestyle
Kind of knew she wouldn’t make it tho. And I feel like as good as Tamar, she was phenomenal considering her age and state of health at the time, she would placed the same. It doesn’t matter how good you are, you’ll never be good enough if ‘their’ in charge!
??She was robbed! She was the BEST and they gave it to someone who didn’t deserve the win! That is messed up!??
They do all the brown girls dirty on that show. Brandy, Mya, Lil Kim, Zendaya, Simone Biles… I’m sure there are more.
This is only gonna help her. I love you normani
She twisted, turned, flipped, flung her legs with precision for the gods, salsa slayed and was tango terrific.
The true champ Normani ……
