Bellah Mae Strikes Back with Bold New Single “Bad Day To Be My Ex”

Bellah Mae begins 2025 with “Bad Day To Be My Ex,” a confident new anthem showcasing growth and attitude.

Bellah Mae is entering 2025 with confidence, clarity, and zero patience for heartbreakers. Her new single “Bad Day To Be My Ex” is a no-nonsense, R&B-infused pop anthem that captures a rising artist stepping into her power with style and sharp songwriting.

The track, written in Nashville with Brigetta Truitt and produced by Brett Truitt, kicks off a new era for the Solihull-born singer/songwriter—one marked by growth, energy, and creative freedom. “I’ve really learned that I don’t have to be too strong all the time — I can still be soft. But if you break my heart… I’ll write an absolutely savage song about you,” she explains.

Drawing from her childhood roots in country storytelling and inspired by ‘90s cultural icons, Bellah includes a line in the track referring to herself as a “Gen-Z Pamela Anderson”—a playful but pointed nod to resilience, image reclamation, and female agency. “I love that Pamela has really taken control of her career… Same with Dolly Parton. These are powerhouse women.”

Bellah’s 2024 EP Never Waste A Heartbreak offered reflective ballads, but 2025 brings a different energy. “My new songs make me want to get out, blast them in the car, and just live,” she says.

With over 100K streams, two sold-out UK tours, and a Tate McRae co-sign, Bellah Mae is poised to make this her biggest year yet—and “Bad Day To Be My Ex” is just the beginning.
