Butt Implants Are Worse Than Gangs for Cardi B

Cardi B is the hottest female rap star in the world right now. Her new album Invasion of Privacy is getting rave reviews, she performed on Saturday Night Live, and she confirmed those pregnancy rumors by revealing her baby bump.

But it wasn’t always glitz and glamor for the 25-year-old.

In a new interview with GQ, Cardi B spoke about her time living a gang life when she was a teenager.

“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.

“When I was a stripper, I didn’t give a f–k about gangs, because I was so focused on making money,

“Sometimes it’s almost like a fraternity, a sorority. Sometimes it’s like that. And sometimes I see people that’s in the same gang kill each other. So sometimes there is no loyalty. Sometimes you gotta do certain things to get higher, to get higher and higher. You’re doing all of that and you not making money off of it. That’s why I don’t talk about it much. Because I wouldn’t want a young person, a young girl, to think it’s okay to join it.”

Cardi went on to say that she doesn’t like talking about her gang life because she’s got a record deal now and doesn’t want to lose endorsements. That’s a money move that 50 Cent should have learned years ago.

You’d think being in a gang would be the worst story Cardi would have to tell, but you’d be wrong. It was a botched butt injection that nearly cost her everything.

“They don’t numb your ass with anything. It was the craziest pain ever. I felt like I was gonna pass out. I felt a little dizzy. And it leaks for, like, five days.

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

She mentioned she went for butt implants after her boyfriend at the time cheated on her with a girl with a bigger ass. Plus, the bigger the ass, the bigger the tips as a stripper.

Now that she’s engaged and with child, gangs and butt implants are the last thing on Cardi’s mind.
