- Bebe Rexha has gone viral on TikTok after encouraging fans to "normalize weighing 165 lbs."
- She wrote that her weight was no one's business, adding: "I'm a bad b---- no matter what my weight."
- Rexha was modeling underwear from her collaboration with size-inclusive lingerie outlet Adore Me.
The singer and body-positivity advocate Bebe Rexha has gone viral after posting a TikTok video discussing her weight.
In the video, the 31-year-old "Sabotage" singer models a navy-blue lingerie set from her new capsule collection with the underwear brand Adore Me, which describes itself as the first lingerie brand to offer extended sizing across all products.
As she dances to Nicki Minaj's "Good Form," a caption flashes across the screen saying: "How much do you think I weigh?"
Then Rexha adds in another caption: "No ones business. Cause I'm a bad b---- no matter what my weight."
"But let's normalize 165 lbs," a caption says in the closing moments of the video.
The TikTok video, which was posted on Tuesday, has amassed nearly 10 million views and over 1 million likes. It's captioned: "Feeling like a bad b---- today."
Throughout her career, Rexha has championed body positivity. She previously said on Instagram that she felt the urge to retouch a bikini photo but ultimately decided to post the picture unedited.
"Society can really f--- with you," she wrote. "Here is what a real woman looks like on Instagram without photoshop."
She also said in 2019 that designers at the Grammys refused to dress her because she was a US size 8. In an interview with Insider at the time, she said: "I was just shocked that I felt that I was being made to feel like there was something wrong with me because I didn't fit into a gown.
"If they didn't like my music or what I stood for or who I was or my messaging, that's one thing. But to judge me on my size is insane to me."
