Cardi B showed up in daringly sheer black lace, dripping in pearls and pregnant — proving once again she’s not just the drama, she’s the deluxe edition.
The rapper, 32, arrived in style at the Highlight Room in Manhattan for her Apple Music album launch event for Am I The Drama? on Thursday, September 18, leading up to its official release on Friday, September 19.
Cardi stepped out wearing a floral-patterned catsuit that showed off her baby bump and body tattoos just days after announcing that she is expecting her fourth child — and first with boyfriend Stefon Diggs. (The “On My Back” hitmaker also shares daughter Kulture, 7, son Wave, 3, and daughter Blossom, 11 months, with estranged husband Offset.)
To complete her look, she wore black high-heeled boots, a choker necklace and platinum blonde hair styled in bouncy, voluminous waves.
Cardi rocked the stage with live renditions of her hits “Pretty & Petty” and “Outside” during her Apple Music gig, also getting a surprise visit from Diggs, who embraced her outside of the New York City hotspot, prior to the event.
The New England Patriots player, 31, even treated her to a massive bouquet that needed to be hauled in by a truck.
“I’m excited. I’m happy,” she told Gayle King on CBS Mornings about her pregnancy in an interview that aired on Wednesday, September 17. “I feel very powerful that I’m doing all this work, but I’m doing all this work while I’m creating a baby.”
“And he just makes me feel safe and very confident and very strong,” Cardi added of Diggs, noting that she was hesitant to fall in love again after her public split. She recalled Diggs comforting her and saying, “Let me heal you. Give me a chance for me to heal you.”
Although she didn’t reveal her exact due date with baby No. 4, the performer said her bundle of joy would arrive prior to her Little Miss Drama tour kicking off in February.
