Renee began her career in the musical theater industry. She made her “Broadway debut” cast as Regina George as well. So, securing the spot in the film was a full-circle moment. She was so well-liked on Broadway that she secured a “Jimmy Award” for the category of “Best Performance by an Actress.” This background shows how talented Rapp has always been and shows that she was a star waiting to be seen.
Her album Snow Angel, which came out in 2023, has gained much traction recently. Since then, she has gone viral on TikTok for singing her songs acoustically and for her powerful voice.
In addition, Renee is known for making funny, and some would say “out-of-pocket” statements. Renee is unapologetically herself, which is why she has gotten such a positive response from audiences. Everyone who follows her likes that they can relate to her in some regard.
