We write the song, then it gets played for the artist, and they somehow fall in love with it and go back in and make it their own. – Bebe Rexha
I want to show every part of me and every color of me. And I think, growing up Albanian, I wanted to bring that to light. – Bebe Rexha
I’m not one to be like, ‘What is everybody doing? Let me do that!’ I just do what I want. – Bebe Rexha
Since I’m on a tour bus, sometimes it’s really hard for me to wash my face, so I always make sure I have those Neutrogena Make-up Remover Cleansing Towelettes. No matter what and no matter how long the days are, I always have to wash with those before bed and when I wake up. – Bebe Rexha
It might crush a lot of people, but I’ve never been in the room with an artist that I’ve written a song for. – Bebe Rexha
I bought these pink sticker things… and I would write things on them, and I wrote, ‘I will write an international smash,’ and shortly after, it was when we did ‘Monster,’ and it was an international smash. – Bebe Rexha
I was a Versace perfume girl at Saks Fifth Avenue, and Rihanna actually came up to the counter and asked for something. And she wouldn’t even take her sunglasses off! She was so mean to me. Not mean, but, like, guarded. I don’t blame her, though. – Bebe Rexha
It all started when I was 4. I was watching a lot of ‘The Little Mermaid,’ and I loved that movie. I was going around the house singing – I wanted to be on Disney and everything; I wanted to be a princess. – Bebe Rexha
I think what ‘The Monster’ means to me is I find it really hard – like a lot of other people in the world – to really be OK in my own skin. It was a message to myself saying, ‘It’s OK that you’re not perfect.’ I’m gonna learn to love myself and accept myself, even though I’m a little crazy. – Bebe Rexha
I played the trumpet for nine years, and then I joined the choir after that, and then I was in musicals in high school. – Bebe Rexha
For mascara, I’ll just use whatever I have in my bag. I’ll use anything. I feel like, from drugstores to a Saks, they are all the same to me. – Bebe Rexha
I write all of my songs from scratch, so the one thing I love about EDM is the way a song transforms into a piece of art, and how the different sounds can change the feel of the record. – Bebe Rexha
We don’t walk around wearing candy stuff all day or colorful stuff. It’s like, I walk around wearing black. – Bebe Rexha
I’ve had situations where producers would be like, ‘Could you meet me? Take the train; don’t tell your parents.’ – Bebe Rexha
I have put absolutely everything into my album. I feel like it’s been such a long journey to get here. It is like giving birth to my first child, and I want to make sure I did everything right. – Bebe Rexha
I got so excited about it. I was like, ‘Yes! I won a Grammy!’ And then my manager was like, ‘No, you did not win a Grammy. You were part of a song that won a Grammy. Rihanna won a Grammy.’ – Bebe Rexha
I don’t really want to make this sound depressing, but I will say that I didn’t really have my first kiss until really, really late. – Bebe Rexha
