London rising Alt-Pop star bexx released ‘Prettier’ with a horror movie inspired video. ‘Prettier’ confronts body image, self-hatred, and objectification with a bloody fist.
“I wrote ‘Prettier’ from a place of deep sadness and deep anger. It is my furious rebuttal to everyone who has made me feel less than because of the way I look – and writing it was deeply cathartic. I want ‘Prettier’ to be an anthem for anyone who has had enough of feeling like they don’t measure up to society’s narrow standard of beauty.”

Don’t tell me I need to be prettier Cause I’ve covered up my mirrors And I’m sick of finding things to fix Don’t tell me I need to be someone else Cause I can never win and your opinion’s so fucking violent So fucking violent
Diet culture isn’t the final girl in bexx’s 80s slasher inspired music video.
