Singer Bebe Rexha [PRIVATE CURVE]


U.S. singer-songwriter Bebe Rexha will hold her first concert in Korea in October, concert organizer Private Curve said Thursday.

The concert, titled "Best F*n Night of My Life" will take place on Oct. 27 at the Yes24 Live Hall concert hall in eastern Seoul.

Bebe Rexha, born in 1989, began her career in 2010 after collaborating with Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy. She rose to stardom when David Guetta's "Hey Mama" (2015), in which she was featured, hit No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

In October 2015, G-Easy's "Me, Myself & I," also featuring the singer, rose to No. 7 on the Hot 100, solidifying the singer's name in the listeners' playlists. She was nominated for the 61st Grammy Awards' Best Country Duo/Group Performance and Best New Artist awards in 2017.

Tickets for her Seoul concert will be available from noon on Sept. 7 via Yes24's website.
