Games People Play actress Parker McKenna Posey presented Normani with the "Best Dance Performance" award.

“Thank you Soul Train for giving me the opportunity to be seen and to my nation, I love you guys,” she divulged.

Of course, she couldn’t forget to thank the dancers who played a part in the visual that won her the award. “You guys push me, I think you are all the coolest people ever.”
