In response to a widely shared body-shaming comment, Bebe Rexha states that she is unbothered and aware that she has gained weight
In a viral clip from a recent Instagram Live, a commenter told Rexha she looked like «Marilyn Monroe after she ate Lizzo»
Negativity isn’t going to bring Bebe Rexha down.
After a clip of the «I’m Good (Blue)» singer reacting to a body-shaming comment during a recent Instagram Live stream went viral this week, she responded on Thursday, Feb. 27, telling fans she’s «unbothered» by the online conversation.
While in Dubai for a charity performance, Rexha, 35, went live on Instagram and read comments from viewers aloud — including one which said she looks «like Marilyn Monroe after she ate Lizzo.»
Other people in the room could be heard gasping after she read the comment, and the Grammy-nominated star added, «Honestly, who cares? That’s a f—in’ hater, like, who’s bored with their life.»

A screen recording from the live stream quickly spread online, prompting Rexha to respond with a front-facing video shared to Instagram Stories. «I just got back from Dubai. I did an amazing charity event. It was so beautiful,» she said, noting that it’d been a «very long time» since her last live chat.
«I get back last night, my friends are like, ‘Have you seen the clip that’s going viral?’ So I go look at the clip, read the comments because I’m nosy,» she explained. «You guys were very nice to me and supportive of me. But I want to say a couple of things.»
