Entertainer Bhad Bhabie is speaking out after a wave of online criticism targeted her latest social media photos, prompting the artist to address both body-shaming comments and her ongoing health battle.
On March 4, the 22-year-old shared two images of herself posing outside a gas station. In the photos, Bhad Bhabie wore a black bodysuit with matching leggings while filling up her car. The images circulated quickly across social media, sparking debate among users about her appearance.
Some critics questioned her look and speculated about cosmetic surgery. Others posted moral critiques of the images. One X user wrote, “I pray young women don’t follow these footsteps. Value how you look and don’t ever betray your morals for money or attention.”
Hours later, Bhad Bhabie responded directly to the criticism, pointing to the health challenges she has faced over the past year.
“I’m not supposed to feel pretty because of my cancer? OK smh,” she wrote.
The comment referenced a diagnosis she revealed publicly in November 2024. At the time, the rapper shared that she had been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer. The announcement arrived months after she welcomed her daughter, Kali Love.

Soon after the diagnosis, some social media users commented on her thinner appearance. Bhad Bhabie addressed those claims on Instagram, explaining that medication affected her weight.
“I’m sorry my cancer medicine made me lose weight,” she wrote. “I’m slowly gaining back. Stop running with the worst narratives.”
Despite her statement, skepticism continued online. Some users even suggested that the diagnosis was fabricated. Her mother, Barbara Bregoli, quickly defended her daughter in a video shared on social media.
“How dare you say my daughter would lie about something like that?” Barbara said. “I’ve had breast cancer twice. How dare you say my daughter’s faking this?”
Last month, Bhad Bhabie hinted that her medical journey remains difficult.
“Bad news from my doctor yesterday,” she wrote on February 28. “God has the last say so, not my cancer.”
