00:00 Bebe Rexha got candid, claiming she's nearly skipped the VMAs due to her anxiety of the

00:04 annual awards show. The 34-year-old singer took to TikTok this past Monday to let everyone know

00:09 that she very much considered not going to the MTV Video Music Awards. The "I'm Good" singer stated,

00:15 quote, "I am very grateful and blessed to be invited to these award shows to be able to do

00:19 what I love. I know the criticism comes with the territory." She also added, "Sometimes it does

00:24 get to me. I am human." Rexha also went on to admit that she still doesn't have an outfit together,

00:29 and she was feeling the opposite of confident as of late. Many have praised her for her body

00:33 positivity, but she's not feeling any of that at the moment. "I tell you right now, I'm not feeling

00:38 so confident. I am so anxious and stressed about going on the red carpet and I guess people talking

00:45 about my weight because I'm not really loving myself right now." The singer continued the

00:50 video asking for fans for any motivational tips or tricks to help her with her mental health

00:54 struggles. Back in July, Rexha confirmed that she had split with K&Safari after three years,

00:59 after sharing that her ex-boyfriend allegedly texted her about her weight gain.

01:03 Rexha shared a snapshot of the texts and has been moving on since the ordeal.

01:07 Rexha is currently nominated for Best Collaboration with

01:09 Dave Agueda for their song "I'm Good" and is one of the show's presenters.
