Grammy-winning artist Cardi B took to social media to announce her desire for a tummy tuck, just nine months after giving birth to her son, Wave Set Cephus. The 29-year-old rapper candidly expressed her dissatisfaction with her current physique, admitting via Instastory that while her stomach isn’t bad, she’s bothered by the presence of “extra little skin.”
“I am a little heavier than usual, but I don’t like it, I want to get rid of it,” Cardi shared, highlighting her eagerness to undergo the cosmetic procedure. She humorously blamed her son Wavey for her body changes, stating, “I think Wavey, like, did me wrong.”
Known for her openness about plastic surgery, Cardi didn’t shy away from discussing her desire for the procedure, despite acknowledging her history of challenging experiences with surgery. While sipping on a coffee drink topped with whipped cream, she reflected on her past surgeries, emphasizing that she’s ready to address her current concerns.
The rapper’s decision to pursue cosmetic enhancements isn’t new, as she previously underwent procedures like breast augmentation and butt enhancements. In 2019, Cardi faced backlash for postponing concerts to recover from a mommy makeover post-childbirth. Addressing critics, she asserted her autonomy over her body and choices, stating, “I do whatever the f*** I want to do with my body.”
As she prepares for upcoming musical releases and performances, including her highly anticipated song “Hot S***” featuring Kanye West and Lil Durk, Cardi remains committed to maintaining her image while juggling her responsibilities as an entertainer and mother. With her daughter Kulture Kiari Cephus’ fourth birthday approaching, Cardi continues to navigate the demands of her career and personal life, all while staying true to her unapologetic self-expression.
