Raye performs in underwear as she belts out powerful song to tackle body dysmorphia

Singer Raye removed her clothing as she performed a powerful song about body dysmorphia.

The 25-year-old Regardless singer performed for her fans at the Royal Albert Hall on Tuesday for a live album recording. While singing her song, Body Dysmorphia, the talented musician began stripping down to her underwear. As shown in a video shared by TikTok user Zack Jordan, the star was left in her white bra and underwear as she made the powerful statement.

Body dysmorphia, which is a mental health condition, is when you spend a lot of time worrying about the flaws in your appearance. These flaws are often unnoticeable to others. Some of the lyrics to Raye's emotional song include: "I'm so hungry, I can't sleep / But I know if I eat /Then I'll be in the bathroom on my knees."

The star stayed in her underwear while performing Ice Cream Man and told the crowd: "I’m taking my clothes off at the Royal Albert Hall!" She shared her incredible experience with her followers on Instagram after the show. Raye wrote: "The show of my ENTIRE CAREER, I can’t HANDLE THIS I am losing my mind reflecting on this show, and yes I am posting the reviews cus we got 5 freaking stars across the board.

"Headlining a sold out royal Albert hall accompanied by @heritageorchestra and the beautiful talents of the youth choir that is @flamescollective_ conducted and arranged by the monster genius that is @wakeuptom I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS IS MY REAL LIFEEEEEE AFTER ALL THESE YEARS OF HUSTLE AND MONSTROUS DREAMS my city saw me for the artist I truly want to be and will continue to strive to be."

She added: "Thank you to Pete @moombaproductions for dedicating 10 years of your life pouring your heart into my project through thick and thin, when I didn’t even have money to pay you what you deserved to @jonny_famous for making my shows sound ridiculous for the crowd, my insane beautiful tour family my goooooooodnesssssssss I will NEVER EVER EVER EVER FORGET THIS NIGHT as long as I am alive."

The star previously opened up about body dysmorphia while being interviewed on Capital FM. She said looking in the mirror can be a '50/50 experience'. She said: "Maybe a lot of people can relate. Sometimes you’ll look in the mirror and be like "that’s nice" or "that’s good", and then sometimes it will feel like the opposite.

"But that’s OK, it’s just part of life and I think it’s something I’m very much working through. I don’t think it’s good to spend too much time in the mirror, or you’ll just start pointing out all the flaws. I just use music as my therapy to try and process stuff."
