Get to work, y’all! Fifth Harmony performed a country version of their hit “Work From Home” at the 2016 CMT Music Awards on Wednesday, June 8, at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville.
The X Factor–assembled quintet joined country starlet Cam for a Southern-inspired medley, which included the solo singer’s latest single, “Mayday,” and 5H’s recent smash from their sophomore album, 7/27.
Cam, 31, who stunned in a fitted black jumpsuit and yellow cape, hit the stage first to sing her new song. Soon Fifth Harmony’s Camila Cabello, Normani Hamilton, Ally Brooke Hernandez, Lauren Jauregui and Dinah Jane Hansen — all dressed in red-hot designer gowns — emerged to set fire to the stage with powerhouse vocals. After Hansen, 18, slayed the tune’s chorus with an impressive riff, the women (including Cam!) broke out into “Work From Home.”
The honorary Sixth Harmony took over a portion of Hansen’s verse. “I know you’re always on the night shift,” Cam sang with a twang. “But I can’t stand these nights alone.”
“I think that [Cam is] incredible, and she is such a talented country artist,” Fifth Harmony member Cabello, 19, told Entertainment Tonight ahead of the performance. “I think that we’re all women in music, you know — genres aren’t really a barrier for us. So it’s amazing that we can come together and be here, and it’s an honor to be here.”
At the ceremony, hosted by Erin Andrews and JJ Watt, Cam took home the awards for Female Video of the Year and Breakthrough Video of the Year for the music video for her track “Burning House.”
