Reneé Rapp

Singer and actress Reneé Rapp launched her career on Broadway, appearing in Mean Girls as a teenager in 2019. Her television acting debut followed in 2021 with a role on The Sex Lives of College Girls. Next up for Rapp was her major-label music debut with the pop ballad “Tattoos” in 2022, followed by the EP Everything to Everyone. After charting with the single “Too Well,” she released her debut album, Snow Angel, in 2023.
A performer since childhood, Reneé Rapp was born and raised in North Carolina, where she first began writing and recording songs in her teens. She eventually got her first big professional break in 2019, when she was cast as temporary replacement for Taylor Louderman, originator of the role of Regina George, in the Broadway musical Mean Girls. This led to TV appearances on Today and 2020′s Take Me to the World: A Sondheim 90th Birthday Celebration for Rapp. In 2021, she joined the original cast of the HBO Max series The Sex Lives of College Girls, playing Leighton. In between that show’s first and second seasons, Rapp made her Interscope Records debut in 2022 with the insecure “Tattoos,” a ballad she wrote with Michael Pollack (Julia Michaels, Jonas Brothers), Jacob Kasher (Lady Gaga, the Chainsmokers), and Isabella Sjöstrand (Machine Gun Kelly, Kiana Lede). The seven-song EP Everything to Everyone appeared in November, and the track “Too Well” charted on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart and in New Zealand. Rapp continued to focus on her music career in 2023, issuing the title track from her debut album Snow Angel which came out in August of that year. ~ Marcy Donelson
