CARDI B: ONE TOUGH - & SMART - COOKIE!
WE’D like to give hottempered rapper Cardi B an “atta girl” for becoming the new Madonna when it comes to shameless self-promotion and getting her name splashed around in the media.
Cardi would be a mildly talented nobody — unknown outside of rap circles — if it wasn’t for her violent, public feuds with other gals.
She got booted from a New York Fashion Week bash for reportedly tossing her stiletto pump at rival singer Nicki Minaj.
And she was charged with misdemeanors for supposedly urging her followers to attack sexy sister bartenders Jade and Baddie Gi at Angels Strip Club in Queens. Wild Cardi believes one of the gals bedded her rapper-hubby Offset.
This bad-girl publicity has shot her from “Cardi Who?” to a recognizable name.
But she’s also the cooing mom of a newborn daughter named Kulture. Does she really expect us to believe that mommie
dearest is now a nasty-gal gangsta?
Come on, Cardi. We didn’t ride in on a turnip wagon.
We think her loud, public attacks are a ruse — a dangerous way to get her name in lights.
And congrats to Cardi. It’s worked.
Former Nanny star Fran Drescher, who in a zillion years
what a rapper is, is yakking about rebooting her series — with Cardi as her halfblack daughter.
That’s a coup for Cardi, whose only acting credits — if you could call them that — are for music videos.
But if the sitcom does pan out, Cardi’s act will have mushroomed into a plum TV gig. And she could go a lot farther. Remember Will Smith was a little-known rapper until the sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air rocketed him to the big screen and superstardom!
