Cardi B isn’t holding back after a TikToker took shots at her appearance, sparking a fiery response that’s got everyone talking. The drama unfolded when a TikTok user questioned whether the rapper had undergone another Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) or if her body changes were due to pregnancy, while throwing in some shady remarks about her proportions. Cardi clapped back on Instagram Stories, shutting down the rumors, defending her choices, and calling out the toxic culture of body shaming.
The TikToker’s video didn’t pull punches, focusing on Cardi’s figure during a recent performance.
“Did Cardi B get another BBL or is this the same BBL? It just looks really weird,”
they said, adding,
“Her legs look super, super tiny and her butt is like super, super big. BBLs are getting out of control.”
They speculated further, wondering,
“I don’t know if it’s just from her last baby that kind of expanded her a little bit or if she just went and got another round.”
The comments also touched on Cardi’s lower profile lately, questioning if it tied to surgeries, saying,
“I feel like she’s been out of the limelight just a little bit… does that have something to do with her surgeries or she just out the mix?”
Cardi B, known for her no-nonsense attitude, wasn’t about to let the shade slide. In a heated Instagram Story on April 28, 2025, she set the record straight.
“It’s always you stupid weak-ass bitches,”
she began, targeting her critics.
“No, I have not gotten on the fucking table, no, I haven’t gotten ass shots. No, I don’t want my butt being bigger.”
She revealed she’d already dealt with her past procedures, stating,
“In January, I fucking did a six-hour surgery removing ass shots. I’m not getting on the table again.”
Cardi explained her packed schedule, saying,
“I’m gonna put this album out. I’m fucking gotta get ready for tour. I’m dating somebody new.”
She also called out the hypocrisy, adding,
“The fact that you bitches always talk shit when a bitch do surgery, but always criticize for a bitch to get on the surgery. It doesn’t make no sense.”
This isn’t the first time Cardi’s been open about her cosmetic procedures. She’s shared her journey, from getting illegal butt injections in 2014 to removing 95% of them in 2022, followed by another removal surgery in January 2024. She’s also had breast implants, rhinoplasty, and liposuction, often using her platform to warn fans about the risks. Cardi’s latest response highlighted her frustration with the scrutiny, especially from other women, as she urged for solidarity to end toxic beauty standards.
The rapper also addressed how her body has naturally changed, noting she gained 25 pounds during her pregnancy, with her third child born around September 2024. This postpartum phase, combined with her candidness about not wanting more surgeries due to recovery time, paints a picture of an artist juggling motherhood, music, and public life while fending off unwarranted criticism.
