The latest scuttlebutt surrounding Cardi B’s physique has fans buzzing with questions and concerns. A recent clip of the rapper dancing in a club set social media ablaze, with viewers speculating that her buttocks appeared “blotched” or uneven, reigniting conversations about her past cosmetic procedures.
The debate comes just two years after Cardi B openly discussed removing dangerous butt injections and years of grappling with the consequences of her choices.
The scrutiny over Cardi’s curves isn’t new. In 2022, the Grammy winner revealed during an emotional Instagram Live that she’d undergone surgery to remove “95%” of the biopolymer silicone injections she’d received in 2014, a $800 risky procedure done in a Queens basement early in her career. At the time, she warned fans about the dangers of such practices, stating, “It’s not worth it. You could die… I don’t want y’all to be going through what I went through.”
Fast-forward to 2024, and Cardi doubled down on her journey, sharing that she’d undergone another round of corrective surgery in January. “I got some more butt injections removed. It takes rounds to get that stuff out,” she explained, referencing her post- “Like What” music video recovery. She also addressed treating fibrosis, a common side effect of injections causing hardened tissue, emphasizing the lengthy, painful process of reversing her past decisions.
The latest controversy erupted when fans dissected the club video, with some claiming her figure looked “unnatural” or uneven. In the viral video, Cardi B looked edgy and daring in sheer black Gucci-print tights, a tight tank black top with cut-out details, and the word “BARDI” written across it. Her look was accessorized with long black gloves with a textured design, Black high-heeled sandals with thin straps, and Sleek black futuristic sunglasses. Cardi B’s vibrant red hair swayed down her back as she danced on the tabletop.
Comments ranged from critiques,” Did her BBL get botched?” to “She lost the plot. She has surpassed the leg to ass to hip ratio limit. Stop fvcking with the fake ass ladies! It looks ridiculous.”
However, critics seemed to overlook Cardi’s own admissions about her body’s evolving shape amid multiple surgeries and healing processes!
