Bebe Rexha deletes G-Eazy beef post: 'I still stand by what I said'
She had slammed her "Me, Myself & I" collaborator as an "ungrateful loser."
Bebe Rexha probably won't be collaborating with G-Eazy again.
On Thursday, the Grammy-nominated singer posted and then removed what appeared to be a text conversation asking if she had "any interest in shooting social content" with the rapper when she was in New York. Rexha had written in response, "you have my number. why don't you text me and ask me yourself you stuck up ungrateful loser. You're lucky people are liking you again. Cause I could go in on all the s----- things you've done and how you treated me after giving you your only real hit. Btw the answer is no. Hope you good."
Hours later, Rexha clarified that, while the post was gone, her feelings were unchanged.

"Someone from my team had me take down my Instagram story. I decided to remove it because it felt very negative and toxic," she wrote. "Sometimes trauma can lead us to react that way, and that period of my life was traumatizing. I am writing this because I regret taking it down and I want to say that I still stand by what I said."
