Bebe Rexha has talked about her struggles with body image and how she doesn’t feel comfortable in her own skin. The 32-year-old singer uploaded an emotional video on TikTok in which she expressed her dissatisfaction with the holiday season, even though everyone else seemed to be.
“So it is the holidays and I know we’re all supposed to be, like, merry and like, ‘Yay, it’s the holidays,’ which I am…ish, I think I am the heaviest I have ever been. I weighed myself just now”. Bebe was noted saying in the video, in which she also mentioned that how she doesn’t feel comfortable sharing her weight as she is too embarrassed to do so.
She opened out about feeling “disgusting” in her own body and sincerely disclosed her thought process about her body image. According to Page Six, Bebe hasn’t been active on social media because she’s been depressed over her weight.
“I don’t feel good in my skin, and when I don’t feel good, I don’t want to post, and that’s really honestly the reason I haven’t been posting in the last year or so as much as I used to”.
It was a vulnerable moment, and it sent a very different message than when she modelled lingerie in another TikTok video just six months ago and boldly revealed her weight of 165 pounds.
Bebe Rexha has always been an outspoken opponent of body shaming, advocating for the normalisation of all body shapes and simply accepting the bodies we have.
