“Every day is different, it’s something that over the past few years I’ve obviously been having a lot of conversations with myself about,” Rebecca said. “To me, the word ‘queer’ feels really nice. I have dated a lot of different types of people, and I just don’t really know what the future holds. Some days, I feel a little more on the ‘gay’ side than others.”
In recent years, Rebecca has been open about the negativity she experienced following the “Friday” video, and how she struggled with body image. In 2018, she appeared on The Four: Battle for Stardom, and has released several singles and an EP.
