People Editorial Guidelines Published on June 11, 2024 09:15PM EDT Fifth Harmony isn't coming back anytime soon — but fans shouldn't completely lose hope. After Ally Brooke teased a possible reunion for the "Work from Home" group last year, Normani addressed the chatter in a new interview with Billboard released Tuesday, June 11. "I don’t know. Not to my knowledge," said the "Wild Side" performer, 28. "But I definitely see that being a possibility in the future. That would be a special moment for sure."

Brad Barket/Getty Images Brooke, 30, sparked rumors of a reunion during an interview with E! News in October 2023, telling the outlet the group — which also featured Camila Cabello, Dinah Jane and Lauren Jauregui — "may be working on something" and added that whatever it is would arrive "sooner than we'd think." Following online discussion among fans of the "Worth It" act, Brooke later clarified her comments in a social media post. "I'm thrilled to see there's a lot of interest surrounding Fifth Harmony," she wrote at the time. The "Gone to Bed" singer continued, "Reunion has many meanings and while there's no official band reunion happening at the moment, some beautiful friendships and relationships are slowly reuniting in a healing and empowering way."

"It’s beautiful to see everybody blossom, flourish and thrive in our solo endeavors because that was the point," she said of each member's solo career. Norrmani also opened up to the outlet about releasing her debut solo single, "Motivation," and how the experience reminded her of Fifth Harmony — after she recently revealed to Elle that she wasn't a fan of the song.

"The day ‘Motivation’ came out, I definitely struggled with, ‘OK, I know what fanbase I come from, and I don’t want to neglect that but also I’m a Black girl that also represents an entire community,'" explained Normani. "So, I definitely struggled with, ‘Well, is this Black enough? Is this palatable enough?’ And I had to remind myself that I’m Normani before everything." Close
