Rapper Bhad Bhabie has responded to recent criticism of her appearance, saying her weight loss is down to “cancer drugs”.
“I’m sorry that they released me because of the anti-cancer drugs [sic] weight,” Bhabie, 21, wrote in a post she shared on her Instagram Stories on November 7.
“It’s slowly coming back to me. So stop running with the worst narratives.”
The performer (real name: Danielle Bregoli) hasn’t revealed any details about her illness — or what medications she’s taking.
Bhad Bhabie said she is on “cancer medication” but did not share any further details about her health.

After her post about taking cancer medication, fans commented, “People need to have more empathy instead of jumping to conclusions and assuming,”
“Praying for you and your health!!! Your baby needs you!!” another fan added.
