The singer, 34, shared a candid TikTok video with the caption 'Anxiety sucks' for her 8.5 million followers to share their advice.

Rexha has opened up about her mental health as the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards approach. Rexha, a nominee, had been getting ready for the show but said that she was having difficulty in the closing moments.

Bebe Rexha admits feeling anxiety about attending VMAs

Rexha said in the video that she was beginning to feel anxious about attending the event in general, and it was all because of people's obsession with and examination of her appearance.

Rexha began by expressing her gratitude and blessing for being able to attend award events and do what she loves while acknowledging that "criticism comes with the territory."

Although people often compliment the her "positivity and confidence," she admitted that "sometimes it does get to me, I am human," and that she was now "not feeling so confident."

Rexha said, "Sometimes it does get to me, I am human. But I wanted just to talk about this because I meet a lot of people and a lot of times they'll be like, 'Oh my god, i love how you're all about positivity and confidence.'"

"Let me tell you, right now, I'm not feeling so confident," she continued.

She added, "I am so anxious and stressed about going on the red carpet and, I guess, people talking about my weight. 'Cause I'm not really loving myself right now. I'm not really feeling like the bad b***h that I usually am."

Rexha claimed that she was inspired to create the video after realizing that everyone experiences "these days" and that "nobody ever feels perfect."

"I don't know if I'm going to go tomorrow. I do have an outfit. It is cute," she said.

"And I do want to wear my dress, and I do really want to go to celebrate my nomination and my friends' nominations, but I do feel like anxiety gets the best of me," Rexha continued.

As a result, she was attempting to connect in part to see if any of her followers had "any motivational tips or tricks" that could assist her in finding the strength to succeed.

She ended her message by saying, "I genuinely want to go, and maybe you'll see me on the red carpet tomorrow."
