Singer-songwriter Bebe Rexha has always been the queen of keeping it real.
After a paparazzi snapped a photo of her that she wasn’t a big fan of, she posted it on Instagram anyway , and her explanation for it has left fans inspired.
After a paparazzi snapped a photo of Bebe leaving the grocery store, makeup free — a photo some may consider to be unflattering, Bebe posted it on social media anyway.
She explained that although it wasn’t her favorite photo of herself, she likes it because it’s real .
Let’s take a look back at all the times Bebe has kept it real AF.
Because this most certainly isn’t the first time she’s done something like this.
Like the time she called out designers for not dressing people larger than a size six.
After designers refused to dress her for being “too big,” she called them out in an Instagram video.
“So I had my team hit [up] a lot of designers,” she said. “And a lot of them do not want to dress me because I’m too big.”
“If a size six/eight is too big, then I don’t know what to tell you. Then I don’t want to wear your [expletive] dresses ’cause that’s crazy.”
Or the time she posted this unedited bikini photo on Instagram, rocking her curves.
“I probably should of photoshopped my stomach and made it look flat. I probably should of photoshopped my legs to make them look thinner. I probably should of made myself look taller and Smoothed my legs,” she wrote.
“But I didn’t. Society can really [expletive] with you. Here is what a real woman looks like on Instagram without photoshop,” she finished.
Or the time she opened up on Twitter about having bipolar disorder.
“For the longest time, I didn’t understand why I felt so sick,” she wrote.
“Now I know why,” she continued.
“Why I felt lows that made me not want to leave my house or be around people and why I felt highs that wouldn’t let me sleep, wouldn’t let me stop working or creating music .”
“I’m bipolar and I’m not ashamed anymore. That is all. (Crying my eyes out.)”
“I don’t want you to feel sorry for me. I just want you to accept me,” she concluded .
Which brings us to now.
After seeing these candid photos of herself taken by the paparazzi while she was running errands, she posted one to her own Instagram — owning it.
“I [expletive] HATE this paparazzi pic of me,” she captioned the photo.
“but you know what Im posting it cause it’s REAL,” she went on .
You go girl!
“I was buying groceries to make chili and lottery tickets. Btw I won 25 bucks.”
I’m sure every girl can relate to this. Nobody puts on a full face of makeup and dresses up to go buy chili ingredients and lottery tickets.
Fans adored Bebe for posting the photo, and praised her being her authentic self on social media.
She also took to Twitter, calling out paparazzi for always taking the worst possible photos of celebrities when they’re just out here trying to run simple errands.
Paris Jackson commented on Bebe’s photo, reassuring her that the Paparazzi pull stunts like this on purpose.
“There comes a point where you start to just be comfortable with saying, this is me and I am okay. Proud of you for posting the photo. I think this is an important message to people. You’re a star and I think you look adorrrbs,” a fan commented.
“Anyone who says they don’t run errands like this is lying lol we all do it messy hair and no makeup,” someone else wrote.
“Thank you for showing your true self,” another fan commented.
Bebe is an inspiration to women everywhere to love and embrace themselves in an era where social media has us thinking we don’t measure up.
