With Cardi B inching toward the release of her anticipated sophomore album on the heels of “Up,” she graced the cover of Interview magazine on Tuesday (February 23). The interview conducted by none other than music mogul Mariah Carey as the pair of stars shared experiences in the industry, reflected on their childhoods and more.
While Cardi has a vivacious personality, she maintains she shy around others — especially celebrities — and has held the same circle of friends since her childhood.
“I’m really shy,” she explained to Mariah. “We’re doing this over the phone, but if it was in person, I wouldn’t be able to look you in the eyes. That’s how nervous I get around celebrities. And sometimes my head starts talking, like, ‘Oh my gosh, I look stupid, I feel stupid, I’m dumb.'”
Cardi continued, “I’ve always had the same friends. I’m very loyal. If I’m your friend, I’m going to always ride hard for you. But if you don’t ride hard for me or you do some funny shit, I’m going to feel a certain type of way.”
The Bronx bombshell opened up about the body insecurities she had while growing up and how she didn’t feel confident in herself until she got surgery on her boobs and butt.
“Even when I was 18 and became a dancer, I had enough money to afford to buy boobs, so every insecurity that I felt about my breasts was gone,” Cardi shared. “When I was 20, I went to the urban strip club, and in the urban strip clubs, you had to have a big butt. So I felt insecure about that. It took me back to high school. So I got my ass done. And then I felt super confident.”
As far as her Invasion of Privacy follow-up, the wait goes on for fans of the Grammy-winner. Cardi says she still has work to do to bring the project across the finish line.
“I feel like I’m missing some songs,” she explained. “Everybody’s rushing me to put it out, but I don’t know if it’s the right time. People always have crazy expectations, especially when it comes to female rap. It’s not like it’s a competition, but people are always comparing and comparing and comparing. It’s almost like they want to see you fail. I hate the feeling when I don’t do something really good.”
So basically she is aware of how dumb she is and doesn’t have her other dumb friends to reassure her, lol.
Stfu hating ass rat! comprehension is key! Stay in school
I bet you go dumpster diving for her dirty tampons too. You’re sick sad lil groupie.
At least she’s aware of her own weakness. Still doesn’t change the fact that she can’t rap for shit still even with an army of ghostwriters.
Cardi is such a liar……………she feels stupid around EVERYBODY!
Who to are you to say she’s a “liar” bitter ass niggas and hoes
I agree with the politicians for once.We definitely need to get back to in-person classes so you can learn how to spell,type, and use words properly. Elementary School Children or level students need their education…..lol
She’s stupid regardless of people being celebrities or not. She needs to just be a video vixen because even using ghostwriters isn’t really helping her sound very appealing outside the female audience.
Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete Delete.
Every time she picks up a mic, I feel my brain cells commit suicide one by one.
Juggs!
Plastic… Will melt in the sun or in extreme heat
Y’all can say what y’all want, but her first album was a classic. ON everythang. I don’t know how much she write, and I don’t care. Because when Drake got exposed all the sensitive ass hip hop niggas said it don’t matter no more if you use ghostwriters. The rules different. So same goes for her. Invasion of Privacy can ride from start to finish. Some of y’all just be weirdos who never listen to the music besides what’s on the radio and then just talk.
“CLASSIC” HAHAHAHA wth is that bro. you gotta still be in high school with this scorcher of a take. if you’re not in high school then you really need to dig in the crates… classic haha
and when drake got “caught” everyone ragged on him you are delusional. but then again he thinks cardi b dropped a classic. classic meaning it stands up to albums like ready to die. i just love the internet.
shes starting to look like Lil Kim….. the ugly version. SMH Hollyweird gets them all. Ugly now
she must be around celebrities all the time then. her biden interview will be the next black history moment to blog tomorrow.
