- Cardi B denies receiving any monetary reward for her outing at Kamala Harris’ rally.
- This was after Cardi B spoke at Harris’ rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Friday, where she formerly endorsed the Democratic Party’s candidate for this month’s presidential election.
Cardi B has addressed rumors about her endorsement of Kamala Harris for president, stating that she didn’t receive any payment for her appearance at Harris’ rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
There were rumours that she was paid for her appearance at the rally.
The rapper in response to these rumors, has taken to her X handle to set the record straight, emphasizing that she’s been discussing politics on her platforms for years without compensation.
In her statement, Cardi B highlighted her personal connection to the issues, having experienced poverty for 24 years before becoming a celebrity.
She wrote:
“I did not get paid a dollar for this…I actually been talking about these topics for the past couple years for free on my platforms!! Before I was a celebrity I was a product of poverty for 24 years so you not gonna tell me what I want to see in my community”
This endorsement isn’t a one-off; Cardi B has been a vocal supporter of Kamala Harris since July, expressing her excitement when Harris announced her candidacy.
Cardi had earlier clarified that she didn’t sleep her way to the top.
She highlighted the reality that women often put in considerable effort and perform at high levels, yet their successes are frequently attributed to superficial qualities or suggestions that they have leveraged their physical appearances to advance their careers.
In a post on her X account over the weekend, Cardi B voiced her discontent regarding the criticism directed at U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, a candidate for the Democratic Party, arguing that much of the backlash she receives is rooted in her gender.
The rapper drew parallels between her own experiences and those of Harris, emphasizing that both have been underestimated throughout their journeys.
