Cardi B is closing out her Little Miss Drama Tour on a high note, thanking fans and her team after delivering 35 consecutive sold-out shows and one of the most successful runs of her career.
The Grammy-winning rapper, born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, took to Instagram on April 19 to reflect on the moment, sharing a video message with supporters following the final stop of the tour. Speaking directly to fans, Cardi expressed how much the overwhelming response meant to her, saying she wanted them to hear her gratitude in her own words.
“I just wanna say thank you so much to everybody who came out to the Little Miss Drama tour and was a part of it,” she said, acknowledging the crowds that filled arenas across North America night after night.
Her message extended beyond the audience. Cardi also made sure to recognize the people behind the scenes who helped bring the tour to life, including her production team, glam and wardrobe crews, choreographers, dancers, venue staff, security, catering teams and drivers. She noted that the tour ran smoothly from start to finish, crediting the collective effort that supported each performance.
The appreciation came just days after a brief setback during the tour’s final stretch. Cardi almost canceled her Atlanta show following a disagreement with venue staff at State Farm Arena on April 18. She later addressed the situation during an Instagram Live session, explaining her frustration over how members of her touring party were treated. Despite the disruption, the tour continued and concluded on a positive note.
The numbers behind the Little Miss Drama Tour underscore its impact. All 35 arena shows sold out, with more than 430,000 tickets purchased at an average price of $159. The tour grossed over $70 million, marking it as the highest-grossing debut arena tour by a female rapper in history.
The milestone is especially significant as it marks Cardi B’s first full headlining arena tour and her first tour in six years. She completed the entire run without an opening act, carrying each show on her own.
As she wrapped the tour, Cardi summed up her gratitude in a caption that matched the tone of her message: “A letter is not enough… y’all gotta hear it from my mouth.”
