Rapper and social media personality Bhad Bhabie, born Danielle Bregoli, recently addressed public concerns over her noticeable weight loss, attributing it to cancer treatment. On November 7, Bhad Bhabie, 21, took to her Instagram Story, stating, “I’m sorry my cancer medicine made me lose weight. I’m slowly gaining it back. So, stop running with the worst narratives.” Her comment came after followers expressed worry, and some speculated her thin frame was due to other factors.
This revelation prompted a strong reaction online, with some fans drawing parallels to the late actor Chadwick Boseman, who kept his cancer diagnosis private while facing public scrutiny over his appearance. One Twitter user commented, “Y’all still didn’t learn from Chadwick Boseman,” referencing how the MCU actor endured similar speculation before his passing in 2020.
Many followers on X and Instagram voiced support, emphasizing empathy. One user wrote, “This is why people need to stop talking about celebs’ bodies; you never know what someone’s going through,” while another added, “Not everything is ozempic,” referring to speculation that weight loss drugs were involved.
Despite the public concern, Bhad Bhabie has remained active online, sharing personal moments. Recently, she posted images alongside her partner, Le Vaughn, and their young daughter, Kali, amid speculation about the couple’s relationship after she previously accused Vaughn of domestic violence earlier this year. Meanwhile, the rapper continues to manage her public life following incidents such as a reported burglary at her Florida home, though she has not publicly commented further on these matters.
