Singer Bebe Rexha who is nominated for the “Best New Artist” at the Grammys expressed her disappointment in a video posted on her official Instagram account last Monday, saying some unnamed designers refused to make a dress for her to wear for the red carpet appearance next month’s Grammy Awards, labeling her “too big” at a size 6 to 8.
“If a size 6/8 is too big, then I don’t know what to tell you,” she said. “Then I don’t want to wear your f—— dresses. ‘Cause that’s crazy. You’re saying all the women in the world that are a size 8 and up are not beautiful and they cannot wear your dresses.”
The video had been viewed more than half a million times and accumulated more than 10,000 comments.
“Project Runway” alum Michael Costello was amongst the first designers to step out and offered to dress her for the Grammys.
