Bebe Rexha blasts Keyan Safyari on internet
Bebe took to her Instagram stories on Sunday and shared a screenshot of her texts with Keyan. In it, the cinematographer seemed to be talking about being honest about her looks. His text read, “I always said I would be honest with you and your face was changing so I told you it was…that was the conversation we were having and you asked.”
Keyan went on to point out her “35 pounds” weight gain “face change.” He said, “You gained 35 pounds obviously you gained weight, and your face changes? Should I pretend it didn’t happen and that it’s ok? Come on I gain 3 pounds and you call me chubbs and fat. Doesn’t mean you don’t love me.”
According to him, Bebe was apparently "trying to find reasons to break up" with him. He added that she shouldn't 'weaponize' her rage, worry, or fears by using the issue of weight. Keyan allegedly recommended the singer to “think about things and write things down, speak to a therapist, and do this retreat thing to get to the root of the problem.”
