People Online Are Still Talking About Bebe Rexha's Weight, And She Responded About How "Upsetting" It Is
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Over the weekend, singer-songwriter Bebe Rexha noticed she was trending on TikTok...but for the wrong reason.
On Sunday, Bebe noticed "bebe rexha weight" was being commonly searched on TikTok after seeing it under a video of her singing. She shared a screenshot of it to Twitter.
Seeing that search bar is so upsetting. I’m not mad cause it’s true. I did gain weight. But it just sucks. Thank you to all the people who love me no matter what.
"Seeing that search bar is so upsetting," Bebe wrote. "I'm not mad 'cause it's true. I did gain weight."
"But it just sucks. Thank you to all the people who love me no matter what."
The "I'm Good (Blue)" singer followed up that tweet with this message:
I’ve always struggled with my weight. A bitch likes to eat.
And although fans immediately came to her defense...
@BebeRexha Bebe - You’re beautiful just the way you are. Your size is not a factor in how great of a human you are. You inspire so many people, including myself, to love themselves the way they are. Fck the haters . WE LOVE YOU FOR YOU !!
....
@BebeRexha I wish you had been around when I was a teen and in my early 20’s. You are drop dead gorgeous. I thought I was fat back then, but I wasn’t. I had gorgeous curves, like you. Appreciate them!!!!! Love you, beautiful Bebe!!!!
...Bebe admitted seeing that search bar was "discouraging."
I’m working on myself everyday. Just discouraged a bit right now. https://t.co/dLsBlRJyCX
But this isn't the first time Bebe had to address her weight. She previously called out fashion designers who refused to style her for the Grammys because they considered her "too big."
"If a size 6/8 is too big, then I don't know what to tell you," she said. "Then I don't want to wear your fucking dresses 'cause that's crazy."
She also posted a TikTok exclaiming it was "no one's business" how much she weighs, while also encouraging fans to "normalize 165 pounds."

She also has a single coming out with Snoop Dogg this week and an album releasing at the end of the month! So, instead of finding ways to bring people down, let's focus more on how we can celebrate each other.
