Cardi B may be a Bodega Baddie, but she likes to be treated like a Saudi princess.
The Am I the drama? rapper stepped out in a fully covered and form-fitting black number for her arrival in Saudi Arabia. She let fans know that the locals welcome her with open arms. Cardi headed to the Middle East to perform at the Soundstorm Festival in Riyadh and clearly enjoyed her time there. She took to Instagram Live to talk glowingly about the experience.
“I am in Saudi Arabia and let me tell you about my experience so far. It is very strict. They will put you under the jail,” she said. “They don't play. You'll go to jail. Smudge and you'll find out. It's very easy to follow the rules here though. The people here are hip, honey. They're very polite, they don't see you when you're poor.”
She went on to discuss how her experience differed from living in America, and it looks like it Cardi may want to exchange in her lace front for a hijab.
“I'm starting to dislike America,” she said. “America makes me pay taxes. The vice president talks shit about me on Twitter. I don't really feel appreciated in America. You guys have to convince me to come back.”
Honestly, she might have a point. America is in no condition to lose Cardi, especially with some of her other musical peers connect with the MAGAs for fun. The “Pretty and Petty” rapper may love her time in the desert, but she's still playing it safe, making sure to follow her strict requirements to stay out of jail. During an Instagram Live prior to her departure, she jokingly let the country know that she was on the straight and narrow.
“I don't like cigarettes. I don't like weed. I don't like hookah. I don't like anything,” she said. “I don't like that stuff. I don't like anything.”
She innocent!
Her husband, Stefon Diggs, dropped by the comments to spit her some Arabic game, saying both “I miss you” and “I love you” much to the delight of her fans. Awww!
