Bebe Rexha has told fans to stop pitting female artists against each other after being told Olivia Rodrigo "outsold" her.

The singer penned a tribute to late star Oliver Tree, who she revealed had recorded a feature for her latest album Dirty Blonde, though it didn't make the final cut, and one person decided to bring up the sales margins between the two female stars in the comments.

Bebe's tribute post read, "I’m in shock. I was in the middle of my cd signing in nyc when I found the news of Oliver tree. I can’t believe it. We recorded a record together to be on dirty blonde. He was so smart. Passionate. Talented. Kind. I’m so sad. May he rest in peace. (sic)"

An X user then informed the I’m a Mess singer, "Olivia outsold u btw (sic)."

She responded, "I’m actually happy for her. No need to put women against each other. Stream DIRTY BLONDE for women empowerment. Livies X Rexhars (sic)"

Bebe calling for an end to the rivalry comes after she previously threatened to expose the music industry scandals that she has been "silenced" from speaking out on.

In 2024, the I Got You hitmaker claimed she was close to combusting after being forced to keep her lips sealed about the way she has been treated.

Bebe Rexha raged on X, formerly Twitter, "I have been UNDERMINED. I’ve been so quiet for the longest time. I haven’t seen the signs even though people constantly are bringing them up and they have been SO OBVIOUS. And when I have spoken up I’ve been silence and PUNISHED by this industry Things must change or I’m telling ALL of my truths. The good the bad and the ugly. (sic)”
