Bebe Rexha revealed that PCOS caused her to gain more than 30 pounds amid fan backlash over her changing body.
“I went to the doctor last year – and a lot of women already have this and don’t know anything about it – but they were diagnosed [me] With PCOS, which is polycystic ovary syndrome,” Rexha He said on “The Jennifer Hudson Show” Thursday
She added that hormonal imbalance “is one of the main causes that lead to weight gain and obesity in women.
“I literally jumped off, like, 30 pounds really quickly, maybe a little bit more. But we have to be positive and show people love.”
Last month, the 34-year-old singer, whose real name is Bleta Rexha, invited TikTok users to comment on her weight, which she has “always struggled” with.
Although Rexha says she knows criticism is just part of being in the public eye, the “I’m Good (Blue)” singer wishes people would stop making weight gain such a big deal.
“I was getting a lot thinner and gaining some weight — and that comes with the area. I’m not mad about it because it’s true, but when you see things like that, it screws you up,” Hudson said.
“You don’t know what somebody’s going through, what they’re going through in their life, so it’s kind of hard. But I feel like we’re in 2023…we shouldn’t be talking about people’s weight,” she added.
Rexha has been very vocal about her body image issues in the past, and admitted in 2021 that she was feeling “awkward” about her body after indulging in the holidays.

Rexha “I’ve only weighed myself now and I don’t feel comfortable sharing the weight because I’m embarrassed” he said through tears on TikTok. “I just feel disgusted, you know, like in my body.”
The Grammy winner even told fans at the time that she might be taking a break from social media because she “doesn’t feel good in [her] leather.”
Thankfully, the singer got her confidence back and urged fans to “normalize” the 165-pound women in a lingerie-clad video a few months later.
