The 25-year-old released her sophomore album Joyride in April. She recently dropped a couple of loose tracks, including “Throw a Fit” and “Like I Used To,” and is reportedly working on a mixtape called Nashe.
Other rumored contestants for Season 27 of “Dancing With the Stars” include actress Camryn Manheim, comic Nikki Glaser, Olympian Mary Lou Retton, model Alexis Ren, and actor John Schneider.
The full cast of “DWTS” will be announced on “Good Morning America” on Wednesday (Sept. 12). Season 27 premieres Sept. 24 at 8 p.m. ET.
