Rapper Cardi B fired back at a social media critic by sharing a vintage magazine photo of former First Lady Melania Trump after the user attempted to discredit her political views.
The exchange began when a supporter of former President Donald Trump posted a video of Cardi B in revealing attire, writing: “Just a reminder, she tried telling millions of people Kamala Harris was the right choice for America.”
The Grammy-winning artist responded by posting the magazine cover featuring Melania Trump, adding only “OH” as commentary.
This adds to Cardi B’s history of confrontational social media exchanges. In September 2023, she engaged in a heated dispute with Tasha K after the YouTuber made claims about her personal life, leading to multiple threatening posts. The conflict stemmed from an earlier $4 million defamation lawsuit Cardi B won against Tasha K in 2022.
In June 2023, Cardi B publicly feuded with fellow rapper Nicki Minaj’s fans, known as the Barbz, resulting in a series of explicit exchanges and temporary account restrictions from Twitter. The dispute began over streaming numbers and escalated to personal attacks.
The rapper also made headlines in March 2023 for a social media confrontation with Madonna over comments about her song “WAP,” leading to a brief but intense exchange before the two reconciled publicly.
Cardi B’s political activism includes vocal support for various causes. During a campaign rally, she criticized the former president’s rhetoric, saying he promoted “bigotry, misogyny, chaos and confusion.”
The artist’s influence extends beyond music into political discourse. Her endorsement of then-candidate Kamala Harris generated significant attention during the 2020 campaign, particularly among younger voters.
The latest exchange attracted widespread attention on social media platforms, with supporters and critics weighing in on both sides of the debate. Neither Melania Trump nor representatives for the Trump family have commented on the incident.
