"I finally get nominated at the Grammys and it’s like the coolest thing ever," Bebe, 29, said on January 21 via Instagram. "So I had my team hit out a lot of designers and a lot of them do not want to dress me because I’m too big.”

"If a size 6, 8, is too big, then I don’t know what to tell you. Then I don’t want to wear your f**king dresses. Because that’s crazy. You’re saying that all the women in the world that are size 8 and up are not beautiful, and they cannot wear your dresses," she added at the time.
