Last night Cardi B was caught on camera appearing to encourage partygoers to do coke at one of the Met Gala’s afterparties.
Cardi B was not only in attendance at one of the Met Gala’s after parties – she was the host. And she can be seen on video publicly encouraging her rich and famous partygoers at the Standard Hotel in New York City, to do the potentially harmful substance.
In the above video that is now going viral, Cardi took the mic and yelled out some words of encouragement to those at her party, Media Take Out confirmed.
She said “make sure you get your drinks. And make sure you get your . . . “
Then Cardi put her finger up to her nose and starting sniffing, suggesting the white substance. It’s not clear if Cardi or her people were supplying partygoers with the substance, or whether the substance was just available. It’s also possible that Cardi was just joking, but many regard the comment as outrageous even for Cardi B.
The video is going viral, and people are disturbed with what she said especially since pop singer Billie Eilish, who just turned 20, was in attendance.
Cardi B’s discography is primarily hip hop, incorporating trap and R&B elements. She is the female rapper with the most number-one singles (5) on the Billboard Hot 100, also holding other records among women in hip hop, such as being the only to achieve number ones in two decades (2010s and 2020s), and the only to achieve multiple number ones with solo songs.
She is the female rapper with the most Diamond-certified songs (3) by the RIAA, the highest-certified female rapper of all time on their Top Artists (Digital Singles) ranking, while also appearing among the ten highest-certified women on the list. She is the female rapper with the most songs with a billion streams on Spotify—where she also has the most-streamed female rap album, and is the first lead artist to top the inaugural Billboard Global 200. Her accolades include a Grammy Award, eight Billboard Music Awards, six Guinness World Records, six American Music Awards, fourteen BET Hip Hop Awards, and two ASCAP Songwriter of the Year awards.
In 2018 Time magazine included her on their annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world, and in 2020, Billboard honored her as Woman of the Year.
