    Lauren Jauregui relished reuniting with Normani at Dancing With the Stars

    The 29-year-old singer previously starred alongside Normani in Fifth Harmony, the chart-topping girl group, and she loved seeing her bandmate take to the stage on the hit TV show.


    The brunette beauty - who was eliminated from the TV show during week three of the current season - told E! News: "A couple of days ago, I found out.

    "It was so stunning to watch. Jordan's freestyle was so spectacular and Mani eats down every time she's on the camera, baby. You give her something to perform, she's gonna eat it up!"

    Normani, 29, competed on Dancing With the Stars back in 2017, and Lauren loved watching her bandmate in action.

    The pop star described Normani's cameo freestyle as "magical".

    She said: "It was such amazing energy.

    "I loved watching all my friends dance their little hearts out and do just such an incredible job tonight. It was so magical."

    What's more, Lauren admitted that she loved her own time on Dancing With the Stars.

    The singer reflected: "For anyone in this experience, you want it to last as long as possible. But this was such a special experience for me. I'm so grateful to have been here, to have met Brandon, to have met all these beautiful people.

    "The pros and the contestants are so special to me. We've all built such a beautiful bond, so I'm really grateful for this experience. It's just so unique. It's everything I love: glitz, glam, dance, vibes."

    In September, Lauren revealed that her Fifth Harmony bandmates had been offering her advice to prepare for Dancing with the Stars.

    The pop star confirmed that two of her bandmates - Normani and Ally Brooke, both of whom previously competed on Dancing with the Stars - had offered her some advice about the show.

    Speaking to People, Lauren shared: "Normani and Ally both are so sweet, so excited for me."

    Asked what advice she's received from her bandmates, Lauren replied: "Normani was just like, 'Have so much fun. Take it a step at a time, and just be as present as possible and enjoy it because it goes by really fast.' And she was not wrong. This is so fast."
