Rapp has been teasing Bite Me over recent weeks, stirring curiosity with a new website that invited fans to sign NDAs (Non-Disclosure Agreements) before unveiling cryptic hints about the album. The buzz only grew as notable personalities like Paris Hilton, Charlize Theron, and Monica Lewinsky dropped subtle clues about the upcoming release.

‘Leave Me Alone’: A Provocative New Anthem

The single ‘Leave Me Alone’ bursts onto the scene as a provocative, rebellious pop anthem. It kicks off with Reneé singing with fierce attitude:

“I’m a real bad girl but a real good kisser / Leave me alone, bitch, I wanna have fun.”

The track sets the tone for the album — unapologetically bold and full of attitude.

The music video creatively features a troupe of Rapp’s doppelgangers embarking on a wild night out that escalates into a risqué, and eventually bloody, pillow fight. The imagery perfectly matches the song’s rebellious spirit. Check out the official video below:

From Broadway to Billboard: Reneé Rapp’s Rise

Reneé Rapp first caught the spotlight on Broadway, starring as Regina George in the musical adaptation of Mean Girls — a role originally immortalized by Rachel McAdams in the iconic film. She reprised this role in the 2024 musical film adaptation, bridging her acting and singing talents.

Her music career gained traction with the 2022 EP Everything To Everyone, featuring catchy singles like ‘In The Kitchen’ and ‘Don’t Tell My Mom’. Building on this momentum, Snow Angel climbed into the Billboard Top 50 and secured the Number Seven spot on UK charts — an impressive feat for a rising star.

Collaborations and Live Performances

Reneé’s dynamic energy extends beyond solo projects. At this year’s Coachella Festival, she teamed up with Megan Thee Stallion and Cara Delevingne to recreate an iconic photo from a past night out — playfully dubbed “The lesbian bodyguards” by Delevingne.

Last year, Rapp and Megan Thee Stallion performed their collaboration from the Mean Girls reboot during a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live, demonstrating her crossover appeal and star power.

Reneé Rapp’s new single and album launch mark a bold next chapter for the artist — one filled with defiance, fun, and undeniable talent. Are you ready to dive into the world of Bite Me?
