According to TMZ, Cardi B “lost it” during her recent stint on Saturday Night Live. Sources told the outlet that amid rehearsals for the iconic sketch comedy show’s 1,000th episode, the “Pretty & Petty” rapper made it a night to remember after she began destroying equipment after overhearing a joke mentioning Nicki Minaj. Apparently, the anchors for the popular skit, “Weekend Update,” were testing out a few jokes regarding Minaj’s affiliation with the MAGA crowd.
Sources noted that the joke had nothing to do with Cardi B; however, just the mere mention of Minaj made her go “berserk.” Things escalated very quickly after Cardi, who was set as the musical guest for the night, threatened to leave the show. It was alleged that she not only threw her phone at a TV monitor backstage, but also stormed into the show producer’s office and punched a TV screen until it broke. Sources told the outlet that not long after Cardi’s fit, the joke was scrapped.
Cardi B Makes History at Kia Forum
In other news, Cardi B recently made concert history, becoming the first female rapper to have two sold-out shows at Inglewood’s Kia Forum. On Friday (Feb 20), Live Nation announced the major milestone via Instagram. “Cardi B launched her first headlining arena tour this past week to two sold-out crowds, and made history as the first female rapper to sell out two nights at the Kia Forum.”
Earlier this month, Cardi B kicked off her Little Miss Drama tour. Along with special guests and sold-out shows, there’s also been controversy. The rapper recently clapped back at BIA for throwing shade at her ex, New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs, with whom she shares a child. While Cardi admitted that she and Diggs weren’t on the best of terms, she made it clear that she won’t stand for others talking down on her former partner.
