Why she looks pregnant in that dress?
Happy for her win.

That takes some of the edge off of her snub in BNA. Well-deserved award too. Can't believe she didn't get a performance slot.

Why are there Asian characters in her thread title? I had assumed it was a glitch or something. Popping those characters into Google search and then selecting 'translate' brings up some amusingly mistranslated results.

It's just her name transliterated into Japanese Katakana "e-ra-me-i" (the characters they use for loan words and foreigner names)...I added it because otherwise the title feels empty

i wonder what she'll be releasing next up. i really don't have a clue what would be best for radio or streaming success, since i really just love all her songs on the album. i'm thinking maybe cheap shot would be nice, though that one might be a bit slow...

The Chris Brown song makes the most sense after “Shot Clock” bombed in streaming despite the radio success, although I really don’t want that one released..

It has 2x the streams of Shot Clock so it wouldn’t surprise me if they tried pushing it for that reason alone.

nominated for 7 BBMAs! really hoping she can win best r&b song with either trip oder boo'd up (hoping she doesn't lose out to khalids better, though i love that song a lot too). oh and it'd be really cool if she gets best r&b album as well. imo she'd deserve a lot of the categories she's nominated in
