Cardi B is making one thing clear: she will fiercely defend her latest business venture. The Grammy-winning rapper responded after plus-size advocate and content creator Samyra criticized her newly announced partnership with fashion retailer Old Navy, reigniting a public feud that first surfaced last year.
The dispute began after Old Navy teased an upcoming campaign featuring Cardi B across its social media channels. The announcement quickly gained momentum online, prompting reactions from fans and critics alike. Among them was Samyra, whose platform centers on plus-size representation, body positivity and fashion inclusivity.
In a TikTok video that has since been deleted, Samyra questioned the collaboration and urged followers to voice their concerns.
“Old Navy… That better not be who I think it is talking about. Y’all better do something with them,” she said.
The post spread across social media, fueling debate over the campaign. While many users celebrated Cardi’s latest endorsement, others discussed Old Navy’s history with inclusive sizing and its relationship with the plus-size community.

Cardi did not stay silent. The rapper fired back in a social media post, making it clear that criticism affecting her business deals crosses a line.
“I don’t mess with nobody for real… but trying to take money out my pockets is like takin’ chicken nuggets out my kids’ mouths,” Cardi wrote. “Trust, I become a whole demon ’bout my coins. NOW MOO THAT!!!”
Her response quickly circulated on X and Instagram, where supporters applauded her defense of the partnership while others continued discussing representation in fashion campaigns.
The latest exchange follows a similar disagreement in 2025. At the time, Samyra accused Cardi of mocking her plus-size fans while promoting merchandise. Cardi denied the allegation, saying she had been joking with supporters and arguing that Samyra had taken her comments out of context.
Since then, Samyra has continued building an audience through conversations about body inclusivity and accessible fashion. Meanwhile, Cardi’s latest response underscores her determination to protect both her public image and her growing portfolio of high-profile brand partnerships, including her new campaign with Old Navy.
