Cardi B: I got butt injections from death quack

CARDI B once received a butt injection from a woman in Queens who later had a patient die on the operating table, the rapper revealed in a new interview.

The “Bodak Yellow” rapper said the illegal operation took place about four years ago in an apartment basement and cost her $800.

“It was the craziest pain ever,” Cardi told GQ. “I felt like I was gonna pass out. I felt a little dizzy. And it leaks for, like, five days.”

Cardi (right), who was 21 at the time, turned to filler injections because she was too thin to undergo another procedure that required liposuction, she said. She intended to go back to the woman for a followup procedure, but that proved to be impossible.

“By the time I was gonna go get it, the lady got locked up ’cause she’s supposedly killed somebody," she told GQ. “Well … somebody died on her table.”

The Bronx-born Cardi — who revealed she’s pregnant over the weekend on “Saturday Night Live” — did not provide the identity of the woman who gave her the injections. Multiple people have died in New York in recent years due to unlicensed rear-end injections, including Kelly Mayhew, who received silicone injections in a Queens basement in 2015.

The faux doctor who performed that operation was identified as Donna Francis earlier this year, with detectives telling NBC New York that she fled to London. Francis is reportedly charged with criminally negligent homicide but remains overseas and has not been taken into custody. Cardi was working as a stripper at the time of her procedure, and said she wanted a larger backside both to help her career and because a man had cheated on her with a woman who had a large behind. The music star covered a number of topics during her interview with GQ, including confirming her rumored affiliation with the Bloods gang.

“I never really wanted to talk about that, because I always wanted a music deal. I always want to keep my endorsements,” she said. “When I was 16 years old, I used to hang out with a lot of . . . Bloods. I used to pop off with my homies. And they’d say, ‘Yo, you really get it poppin’. You should come home. You should turn Blood.’ And I did. Yes, I did. And something that — it’s not like, oh, you leave. You don’t leave.”

Cardi added that she doesn’t generally speak about her affiliation because she wouldn’t want young people to join, noting that she’s seen violence between members of the same gang.

“It doesn’t make your money," she told GQ. “It doesn’t make your money. I rep it, because I been repping it for such a long time.”
