Bunnie XO’s Mugshots Show Her Painful Transformation Over The Years

Bunnie XO gave fans a raw look at her past by sharing seven mugshots that tell the story of her battle with addiction and survival.

She explained that her first arrest happened when she was just 19 years old, already “living on the streets of Vegas for 5 years” and having “lost three babies.”

Each photo, she said, revealed “eyes [that] only get more sad, more broken & more intoxicated.”

The photos showed her physical and emotional transformation through the years.

The first mugshot captured a makeup-free young woman in a gray hoodie, her dark hair pulled back as she stared blankly into the camera.

In the next two, her hair lightened to platinum blonde, and her face started to show signs of exhaustion. By the fourth, she wore a faint smile with her hair straight and blonde, and makeup carefully applied.

In the fifth photo, she wore a lip piercing and bright red T-shirt, looking lost but defiant. The sixth and seventh mugshots showed Bunnie with makeup, darker eye shadow, and a growing sadness in her eyes.

The final one was the most haunting, featuring a snapshot of someone who, as she said, had “stopped caring if [she’d] wake up tomorrow.”

Looking back at the darkest times of her life, Bunnie XO described being “deep in addiction” and “lost in survival mode.”

She said she once believed that “surviving meant hyper independence, fighting in the streets, barking loud & biting even harder.”

Her last mugshot, taken when she was 26, marked one of her lowest points, when she was arrested for soliciting an undercover cop.

“I can still see the drugs in my skin, the bloodshot eyes, the hollow look that comes when you’ve stopped caring if you wake up tomorrow,” she confessed.

Bunnie admitted that she was trapped in a “perpetual victim mentality” and called it a “recipe for disaster.”

However, she also revealed that this was the moment she decided to change, to stop blaming others, and to take responsibility for her life.

In her post, Bunnie shared that faith played a major role in helping her rebuild her life.

“Even when I didn’t deserve it, God kept pulling me out the fire,” she wrote. “Every overdose that didn’t take me, every time I inserted myself in harms way. He said, ‘No, there’s still work for you to do & what’s tea for them will be testimony for you.’”

She said she is not ashamed of these photos because they remind her how far she’s come.

Speaking directly to those going through similar struggles, Bunnie offered words of hope.

She said, “If you’re in your own rock-bottom season right now, I need you to know this – you can rebuild. You CAN rewrite your story & start believing in yourself. You are never too far gone for God to find you, love you, & lift you out.”
