Todrick Hall is back with more twerk-worthy, strut-tastic music. And this time, he’s being joined by Ciara!
Earlier this year, Hall released a new EP and premiered his single “Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels.” And we’ve got to say, we loved it.
For years, the YouTuber has turned his creative musical videos into viral clips. And despite Simon Cowell saying Hall would never have a singing career, Hall has successfully performed on Broadway multiple times and released his own music. It also helps that he’s close friends with the world’s highest-paid celebrity Taylor Swift.
But now, Hall has joined forces with another musical queen to release a remix of “Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels.” But this isn’t the first time that Todrick and Ciara have worked together. The two performed the song during the WorldPride opening ceremony in New York City last June. And now, they’ve released a new version of the song together.

In the remix, Ciara is heard adding lines through the song, but she has her own verse to express the blessing of life on top. “I pop like a bottle/ And I walk like a model/ Every time that I post/ Another million dollars,” she raps.
Then in a statement to Billboard, Hall shared that he was on cloud nine while working with the pop and R&B icon.
“To collaborate with an icon and queer ally like Ciara is simply a dream come true,” he says. “NHHH has become an anthem for the gay community and now the song will have an even broader appeal, because no matter the race, gender or sexual orientation, everyone deserves to have a song make them feel fabulous!”
Meanwhile, Ciara says she was honored herself to work with the internet and music star.
“Todrick is such a visionary, I have been a fan of his work for some time now. It’s exciting to see what he’s going to create every time he drops something,” she says. “He reached out to me a while ago to join him on one of his songs, and this was the track that I loved … This is such a fun song that anyone can dance to, especially in the club! I’m so excited that it is finally out!”
