Singer Bebe Rexha reacts to being body-shamed by Azealia Banks



Bebe Rexha has responded powerfully to online criticism following her appearance at the 2025 Met Gala, revealing she recently suffered a pregnancy loss and calling for greater empathy toward women facing personal struggles. The singer was the subject of harsh commentary from rapper Azealia Banks, who criticized Rexhas appearance from afar. Banks posted, Sis gives me - hormonal birth control implant or something. Its giving implanon/nuvaring she needs removed or depo shot that needs to stop happening (Im not even tryna play her). Rexha did not let the comment go unanswered. She directly addressed Banks, urging her to seek therapy or find help for what she described as "deep-rooted sadness and chaos." In a now-deleted post on X, Rexha went further, expressing frustration with the ongoing scrutiny over her body and revealing for the first time that she had recently experienced a pregnancy loss. She said she had carried the pain privately, and emphasized the need for compassion, especially when discussing someones appearance. I was going through a pregnancy loss, she wrote, highlighting the emotional toll and the pressure of dealing with both public expectations and private grief. The post served as both a clapback and a plea for sensitivity, with Rexha reminding people to think twice before commenting on anyones body a message she has consistently advocated for throughout her career. Banks, who did not attend the Met Gala, launched a series of fashion critiques on social media throughout the night, targeting multiple celebrities including Cynthia Erivo, Chappell Roan, and Doja Cat in similarly cutting remarks.
