The Good as Hell artist, 34, has had to deal with body shaming throughout her career.

In a 2021 interview supporting the release of her Rumors single on the Zane Lowe Show, the multitalented artist revealed, 'I feel like [being] fat is the worst thing people can say about me at this point. This is the biggest insecurity. It's like, "How dare a pop star be fat?" I had to own that.'
