And then, now I come and I&#8217;m just like, &#8216;I actually belong here.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bebe draws inspiration from a number of her fellow pop stars who have carved out their own place in the music industry.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe said: &#8220;[I am inspired by] Sabrina [Carpenter], Zara [Larsson], Charli [XCX], all the girls who have been slaying for such a long time, but now they fing made their mark. They have their thing, and it&#8217;s like, it&#8217;s fing inspiring.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nBebe recently claimed that she feels &#8220;happier&#8221; than ever after becoming an independent artist.<\/p>\n<p>\nSpeaking to People about her independent venture, Bebe explained: &#8220;I feel amazing, honestly. I&#8217;m happy, finally. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I see the light on the other side of the tunnel. It was getting a little scary there for a second. I&#8217;m happier than I&#8217;ve ever been, to be honest. Just to be surrounded by people that actually care about me \u2014 the energy is completely different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nBebe released New Religion \u2014 a high-energy dance track featuring the British group Faithless \u2014 earlier this year, and she opened up about her own relationship to the song.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe pop star recalled: &#8220;My uncle, when I was growing up in New York City, was trying to be a DJ. I remember him playing that for me the first time. And then I would hear it throughout my life \u2014 not knowing, when I was younger, where the song was coming from or who the artist was. And then as I got older, I was like, okay, this song was iconic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/pop-star-bebe-rexha-feels-confident-ever-1441558.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>30 April 2026 Bebe Rexha feels more confident than ever.
