Cardi B is currently in Paris, enjoying Fashion Week. Yesterday the paparazzi caught her outside of Vivienne Westwood’s show, smoking a cigarette.
Media Take Out managed to get a few close up pics of her face, and her teeth appeared black, as a result of the tar and soot from the cigarette.
In the Unites States, cigarette smoking has dropped to all time low levels. But in France, and in particular Paris, cigarettes are still very much en vogue.
One of the unfortunate side effects of smoking cigarette is that it damages your teeth. Look at Cardi’s mouth:
Cardi is an American rapper and songwriter. Known for her aggressive flow and outspoken clever lyrics, Cardi B has established herself as one of the most successful female artists in contemporary music. Born and raised in New York City, she first gained popularity through videos shared on Vine and Instagram. From 2015 to early 2017, she appeared as a regular cast member on the VH1 reality television series Love & Hip Hop: New York, which depicted her pursuit of her music aspirations, and earned further recognition with the release of her two mixtapes: Gangsta Bitch Music, Vol. 1 (2016) and Vol. 2 (2017).
Her first studio album, Invasion of Privacy (2018), debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and became the best-selling female rap album of the 2010s. Critically acclaimed, it made Cardi B the only solo female artist to win the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album and marked the first female rap album in 15 years nominated for Album of the Year. Its singles “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It” both topped the Billboard Hot 100 and were certified diamond by the RIAA; the former made Cardi B the first female rapper to top the Hot 100 with a solo song in the 21st century and the first to achieve a diamond-certified song, while the latter made her the first with multiple number-one songs. Her third US number-one, the collaboration “Girls Like You” (2018) with band Maroon 5, made her the first female rapper to earn multiple RIAA diamond-certified songs. Cardi B released “WAP” (with Megan Thee Stallion) in 2020 and “Up” in 2021, both of which topped the Hot 100 and other charts worldwide. “WAP” became the only female rap collaboration to debut atop the Hot 100, broke several streaming records and made Cardi B the first lead artist to top the Billboard Global 200. Her second studio album will be released in 2024.
