Fifth Harmony's Normani Kordei is back on Twitter following alleged racist cyber bullying over the weekend.
The singer announced on Saturday, August 6 that she was leaving Twitter as a result of cyber bullying, reported Aceshowbiz.
Yesterday, she returned to the social media, reposting Keke Palmer's support for her. "[Love] kekepalmer's photo," the 20-year-old singer wrote alongside a link to an Instagram photo of her shared by Palmer. The posting, however, has since been deleted.
Palmer wrote, "'Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius.' It's genius to learn how to tap into sharing your gifts, an ability we all have. However, when you are incapable of letting go and doing just that, it's quite easy to tear down those that do! You are such a beautiful girl Normani, what others say about you is a reflection of them NOT you."
Kordei told her followers that she's taking a break from Twitter after being "racially cyber bullied with tweets and pictures so horrific and racially charged that I can't subject myself any longer to the hate."
Previously, Kordei was forced to address haters accusing her of shading her Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello during a recent Facebook Live interview.
