Nessa Barrett stans are hot. We don’t make the rules, that’s just how it is. We can’t help it that we have impeccable taste. Not only is she amazing and talented, but the Nessa Nation really is a family. Nessa has done an incredible job at building a loving, supportive community in her fandom, and we’re forever grateful. Here are twenty-one reasons why being a Nessa Barrett stan is such a slay!
1. She’s An Advocate For Mental Health
First and foremost, Nessa is extremely open and vocal about her mental health challenges. Allowing herself to be honest and vulnerable with her fans has encouraged all of us to do the same. She doesn’t stray from some of the difficult topics and speaks up about things others might be afraid to talk about. Because of her, these important discussions are happening, and whether she knows it or not, she’s making a difference in how we all talk about mental health.
2. She’s Absolutely Hilarious
Nessa knows how to crack a joke. She knows her humor might not be for everyone but for us… it’s everything! We love how she doesn’t take herself too seriously. Whether it’s a funny face, a random noise, or an interpretive dance, Nessa always keeps us laughing!
3. Her Music Is So Relatable
Do you ever find that song that speaks directly to your soul? That’s how Nessa fans feel with every Nessa song. We’re not quite sure how she does it, maybe she steals our personal diaries, or maybe we’re all living a piece of the same life, but there’s always a Nessa song for every mood. Want to cry? ‘plane to paris’ will leave you in shambles! Wanna feel like a bad b*tch? We recommend ‘heartbreak in the hamptons’ or ‘too hot to cry!’
4. Her Fashion Is On Point
Her stage style and her street style are always Pinterest board worthy. Pink or black, dress or blazer, she looks good. Nessa’s also not afraid to take risks and often lets her bold, flirty side shine through in her wardrobe. She’s every stylist’s dream and our forever fashion icon.
5. She’s Not Afraid To Tell It How It Is!
Do you swear to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Nessa does. One thing we love about her is her ability to keep it real. It might be in her lyrics or it might be in a tweet, but she’s going to say what’s on her mind and we stan her for it. Obviously!
6. Her Cat (Yes, That Counts!)
Boo! We’re all Boo stans in this household. He’s adorable, he’s sweet, and he rocks a tie. If he had his own Instagram we’d be his biggest fans. We also love how much joy he brings to Nessa, and just look at him, he seems like the world’s best dance partner!
7. She Genuinely Loves Her Fans
Follow backs, liking tweets, or responding back to us in her comments: Nessa makes time for us. It might seem small to some, but to us, it means the world. She always makes us feel appreciated and tells us how much we mean to her! We never doubt how much she cares and she does her best to create a safe space for all of us to enjoy. She loves us as much as we love her and we can’t thank her enough!
8. Her Taste In Movies
Did you know she loves Corpse Bride and Death Becomes Her? Stans do and, we agree—these movies are top-tier. If we had a chance to have a girl’s night with Nessa, she’d definitely be in charge of picking the movie.
9. She Knows How To Own A Stage!
Nessa was born for the stage. A true performer through and through, she never fails to amaze us. Her presence is awe-inspiring, and she captivates us from beginning to end. You can tell she loves what she does! Her shows are electric and her energy radiates into the crowd. If you haven’t gotten the chance to see Nessa Barrett live, add it to your list ASAP!
10. She Can Pull Off Any Look
We’ve seen her with black hair, blonde hair, and red hair. That might be our fave, but shhh, don’t tell Nessa. We’ve even been there for the bleached eyebrows, which were such a slay! How does she look good in any look? We need to know her secret!
11. Her Random TikToks
While we know she uses her TikTok mainly to promote her music, every once in a while Nessa will surprise us with something random. It could range from a silly dance to an update about her day. Regardless, we love when Nessa connects with us and keeps us guessing.
12. She Smells Soooooo Good!
We promise that’s not creepy, that’s a fact! Ask anyone who’s met Nessa in person and they’ll tell you the same thing. She’s been using the same perfume since high school and goes nowhere without it. Do you wanna smell like Nessa Barrett? We got you. It’s Baccarat Rouge 540.
13. She Works Ridiculously Hard
Who else do you know that could give us two EPs, a full-length album, a deluxe version, an international brand campaign, and a world tour in three years? Nessa is constantly feeding us with new music and content. Seriously, we’re so spoiled! We know how hard she works and how much passion she puts into her art.
14. Her Nails? Amazing!
Honestly, do we have to say anything more? Short, long, black, white. It doesn’t matter. Her nails always look good, and we absolutely use them as inspo for our own manicures!
15. Her Music Videos Never Disappoint
Nessa Barrett has never made a bad music video. Ever. As she’s progressed through her career, they’ve gotten more intricate, in-depth, and aesthetically pleasing. Nessa plays a large role in coming up with ideas for her videos, which means her creative mind expands songwriting, and that makes her a bada*s, multi-gifted queen!
16. She Reminds Us We’re Never Alone
Because Nessa is so vulnerable with her fans, she lets us know that she’s going through things, too. She reminds us that it’s okay to struggle. It’s okay to have a bad day or fall down sometimes. It makes us human, and even if we feel like no one understands, they do.
17. She’s Permanently Added “Slay!” To Our Vocabulary
If you’re a Nessa Barrett stan there’s a strong chance the word “slay” has become a part of your everyday vocabulary! “Slay this” and “Slay that”… we can’t stop. Why would we want to?
17. Her Awesome Momager (Yes, That Also Counts!)
Don’t just take it from us. Nessa said it herself, “Get yourself a Bree.” Stans know her, admire her, and love her; she’s been with Nessa from the beginning and is a huge part of the family. During her interview with Seventeen, Nessa told us that Bree isn’t just her momager or her best friend, but does everything she’s too lazy to do. We also know that Bree is always around to support her and keep the Nessa Nation running. We adore you, Bree!
18. Her Alter Ego Baby Cowboy
Baby Cowboy! What could we say about Baby Cowboy? She covers the three S’s perfectly: sassy, sarcastic, and slays (duh!) And if you get it, you get it. Baby Cowboy is a lifestyle. Simple as that.
20. Her Voice Is Out Of This World!
If there’s one thing Nessa is going to serve, it’s going to be vocals. This girl can siiiiiiing! How else can we describe it? Magical, enchanting, addicting, unique. The list goes on and on. She has a gift and she’s kind enough to share it with the world. She’s selfless, really. One of our all-time favorite Nessa vocal moments is the Vevo live performance of ‘scare myself.’ It’s our go-to video whenever we’re trying to recruit a new Nessa stan (and it always works!)
21. She’s Literally The Strongest Person We Know!!
Nessa inspires us in so many ways, but her strength has to be at the top of our list. We are so proud of everything she’s accomplished, both personally and professionally, and it’s all because she’s never given up. It takes guts and faith to keep on persevering and Nessa’s got plenty of both. In the wise words of Nessa herself, “It takes someone truly special to always survive.” Well, Ness, you’re special in our eyes!
Thank you, Nessa, our beloved Baby Cowboy. Thank you for creating music that’s changed our lives. Thank you for always brightening our day. Thank you for sharing your heart with us. And above all, thank you for being you!
