'Whether or not it was her intention, this made me feel like I was second to the relationship that she had with her fans,' Normani said.
. No matter what the trolls have to say, even they can't deny what Normani is working with.
Cabello has since apologized for the racist social media posts, and now that Normani is older and wiser, she feels that she can appropriately respond to that traumatic discovery with tact. The 23-year-old isn't mincing words: Cabello's actions were beyond painful."It was devastating that this came from a place that was supposed to be a safe haven and a sisterhood," she admitted to.
While Normani has healed from that personal pain from someone she once felt was as close as a sister, she's fully aware that, as a Black woman, that kind of casual racial vitriol is sadly an everyday occurrence. But Normani is a superstar in the making, and she's not letting racism stop her:"I deserve to be celebrated and I’m just getting started."

Lowe's says it will invest $1.7 billion in its supply chain over the next five yearsLowe's Cos. is currently undergoing a transformation that includes a $1.7 billion investment in its supply chain, according to Marvin Ellison, the home improvement retailer's chief executive. Speaking on the earnings call on Wednesday, Ellison said the investment will help with the changes being made to the e-commerce site. Growth in the online channel has been slowed in order to modernize the site, Ellison said. "Getting digital right is critical if Lowe's is to generate higher growth, if only because increasing numbers of consumers start their journey by researching online and many more are now ordering online too," said Neil Saunders, managing director at GlobalData Retail. Lowe's reported fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that beat expectations but guidance fell short. Among the factors, Ellison blamed marketing missteps during the shortened shopping season, including a failure to "fully capitalize on demand for appliances among other key categories," according to a FactSet transcript. Appliances were an area of strength for Lowe's biggest competitor, Home Depot Inc. . "We prefer Home Depot for its high level of consistency and strong execution," said Raymond James in a note. Raymond James rates Lowe's stock market perform. Lowe's shares have fallen 12% for the week so far, but shares are up 2.4% for the past year. The S&P 500 index has gained 9% over the past year.

Former Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh Sentenced to 3 Years in Prison Over Children's Book ScandalLast May, former Baltimore mayor Catherine Pugh resigned from her position after news broke that she arranged for local nonprofits to buy a ridiculous number of her self-published Healthy Holly: Exercising is Fun children’s books, in order to conceal hundreds of thousands of dollars in kickbacks. (According to the Baltimore Sun, Pugh struck a deal with the University of Maryland Medical System to spend $500,000 on 100,000 copies of her book—all while she sat on the board.) She was charged with 11 counts of fraud, tax evasion, and conspiracy in November, and pleaded guilty soon after. As of Thursday, Pugh has been sentenced to three years in prison and three years of parole, CNN reports, after having made more than $800,000 from fraudulent sales. She was also ordered to pay $411,948 in restitution and to forfeit $669,688, as well as $17,800 from her Committee to Re-elect Catherine Pugh.
