Bebe Rexha rocks out on stage at the amfAR Cannes Gala
On Thursday, amfAR Gala Cannes 2023, sponsored by Aston Martin, took place at the legendary Hotel Du Cap Eden Roc Cap D’Antibes, in France.
And Bebe Rexha, 33, put on a buxom display in a baby blue jumpsuit as she took to the stage for guests at the star-studded event.
The singer looked sensational in the all-in-one, which boasted long sleeves and a low-draped front that purposefully left her dazzling cleavage on display.
While belting out her greatest hits, Bebe shone in the sequin-embellished ensemble, which she accessorized with a necklace with her name on it.
To complete her performance look, the superstar donned heavy makeup, complete with baby blue eyeshadow, and straightened her blonde locks.

amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, is one of the world’s leading non-profit organizations dedicated to supporting AIDS research, HIV prevention, treatment education, and advocacy.
In April 1983, Dr. Mathilde Krim and Dr. Joseph Sonnabend, along with Michael Callen and several others in New York City, founded the AIDS Medical Foundation (AMF).
It was the world’s first private organization dedicated to raising funds to support scientific and medical research on AIDS. In 1984 the first research grants were awarded.
In September 1985, amfAR was formed through AMF’s association with the like-minded National AIDS Research Foundation, which had been established in August 1985 in California.
Since then, amfAR has invested nearly $617 million in its programs and awarded more than 3,500 grants to research teams around the world.
amfAR Gala Cannes has raised more than $245 million in total for amfAR’s life-saving AIDS research.
This extraordinary success has enabled the Foundation to make crucial research investments to bring a cure for HIV within reach.
amfAR’s research investments have contributed to the development of antiretroviral drugs that keep millions of people alive and helped eliminate mother-to-child transmission of HIV in many parts of the world.
And amfAR has fueled a scientific community that, once highly skeptical, has largely embraced the idea that a cure is not only possible, but achievable in our lifetime.
Today amfAR supports a range of healing strategies. For example, a new grant initiative called ARCHE-GT supports teams of researchers exploring gene therapy approaches for healing.
Importantly, the researchers are tasked with developing an intervention that can be administered by injection, increasing the likelihood that, if effective, it can be administered without complicated laboratory procedures.
Since the start of the pandemic, approximately 84.2 million people have contracted HIV and more than 40 million people have died from AIDS-related illnesses.
