Bebe Rexha modeled a fitted dress for Cyndi Lauper’s hand and footprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood on Tuesday.
Cyndi, 70, received glowing testimonials from Bebe, 34, and Cher, 78, before placing her prints in cement in front of the iconic showbiz monument.
In some stunning star-studded group photos, Cyndi posed flanked by her two fellow pop stars in front of a backdrop splashed with her name.
For her latest public appearance, Bebe opted for a skin-tight black ensemble that showed off her curves as she walked across the stage.
“It is an incredible honor to be here today to celebrate the illustrious career of a true icon, Cyndi Lauper,” he gushed via NBC.
Bebe Rexha modeled a form-fitting dress for Cyndi Lauper’s hand and footprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood on Tuesday.
“Her legacy as an artist, singer, songwriter, actress and activist will now be forever enshrined in Hollywood history, right here in front of the Chinese Theater,” he said.
‘To say Cyndi is someone I’ve idolized my entire life is an understatement, guys. “I remember growing up as a little girl in New York City and I remember dancing to one of my mom’s favorite artists, which was Cyndi, and she quickly became one of my favorite artists,” Bebe recalled.
“And not only was I drawn to her infectious melodies and avant-garde style, but most importantly her unapologetic nature to be her true self, her true authentic self. She helped empower me, not only as an artist, but more importantly even, as a woman.”
Bebe marveled: ‘And now being able to call her a friend is great, guys. I can’t believe she’s here! This is so amazing, so thank you.”
Her moving speech came just days after she posted a video on TikTok in which she bared her soul about the various symptoms she has suffered as a result of her polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), including weight gain.
The first symptom she experienced was ‘super, super irregular’ periods, to the point that she once menstruated for 20 days in a single month.
He also noted that he gained “a lot” of weight over the past four years, even though at one point he consumed 1,400 calories a day and burned half of them with exercise.
“My doctor once told me that a woman with PCOS can eat a bowl of blueberries and it would be equivalent to a normal person eating an entire pizza pie,” she said.

Bebe has also had to deal with “bad cysts,” including one that burst last month, prompting her to go to the emergency room.
“I was in a lot of pain,” he recalled. ‘My doctor thought it was appendicitis, it was very serious. In reality, it was a cyst that had burst. Tylenol didn’t work, Advil didn’t work. ‘He was sick to his stomach, the pain was so intense.’
Bebe spoke about having to weigh her food, adding that her condition also causes acne and “super bloating.”
She previously opened up about her PCOS last year and told Gayle King on SiriusXM how “tough” his battle against the disease has been.
“I think I’ve definitely been struggling with my weight and I’ve been struggling with food forever,” she explained.
“I definitely have issues with my weight and my appearance, and it’s been hard for me.” I recently discovered that I have PCOS and many women suffer from it. And many women have it and don’t know it.
