Reneé Rapp

Reneé Rapp knew she was born to perform ever since she was a child. Even in her earliest memories, her love of music was always present. "I couldn't sit still in the car unless there was music," she says. "Otherwise, I would cry the entire time." The North Carolina native began harnessing her natural creativity by writing and recording songs when she was just a teenager. Eventually, her career took off when she landed the coveted role of Regina George in the Tony-nominated Mean Girls musical on Broadway. Shortly after, she found widespread recognition and praise for her performance as Leighton on the HBO Max series "The Sex Lives of College Girls" written by Mindy Kaling. Now, more empowered than ever, Rapp now turns her attention back to music, where sharing threadbare insecurities on "Tattoos" is just the beginning. In this song and in the rest of her music to come Rapp leans into a uniquely bold showcase of vulnerability to connect with her ever growing fandom.
