Bebe Rexha: ‘I’m a little f–ked up’ — but making ‘Better Mistakes’

For an artist whose new album is called “Better Mistakes,” Bebe Rexha sure has made a lot of the right moves in her career.

First having success as a songwriter, co-writing the 2013 Eminem and Rihanna smash “The Monster,” she went on to score her own hits — including 2015’s “Me, Myself & I” (with G-Eazy) and 2017’s “Meant To Be” (with Florida Georgia Line) — and earn a Best New Artist Grammy nomination for her 2018 debut album, “Expectations.” Now, with her latest album out Friday, the 31-year-old pop diva — an Albanian-American who was born Bleta Rexha in Brooklyn before moving to Staten Island as a child — reveals how she got a a co-sign from Queen, why she shares her mental health struggles and what makes her a “no-bulls–t” New Yorker (even though she lives in Los Angeles).
