Rapper, record-breaker and larger-than-life personality Cardi B is on the cover of the latest I-D magazine and, naturally, she has a few things to say.
The interview covers everything from her former career as a stripper to her upcoming wedding and racism in Trump’s America.
Here’s some of the best quotes:
On feminism
“Being a feminist is such a great thing and some people feel like someone like me can’t be as great as that. They think feminism is great and only a woman that can speak properly, that has a degree, who is a boss, a businessperson… they think only Michelle Obama can be a feminist. But being a feminist is real simple… Anything a man can do, I can do.”
On racism
“If you’re a little scrawny man raised in a trailer in Alabama somewhere, of course you’re scared right now. That’s why they own guns! They’re scared of the intelligence of the minority. We are controlling the music industry. We control the fashion world. When you see the Olympics, who always wins? Coloured folks. We win everything.”
On stripping
“The first time I stripped I was really embarrassed. I felt like I could hear my parents in the back of my mind.
“Sometimes a man would caress me on my arm and I would hear them breathe so heavy in my ear. It just disgusted me.”
People are obsessed with these pictures of Anna Wintour And Cardi B sitting together at Fashion Week http://bzfd.it/2BTUY3t
Cardi was also seen checking out some new styles this weekend at New York Fashion Week, where she found herself sat next to Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
Good job she dressed up for the occasion then, though we still prefer her ’90s Spike Island look from The Grammys.
The internet went crazy for this meeting of sartorial minds and Buzz Feed challenged us all to name a more “iconic duo”…
Confirming that the word iconic is now void of all of its original meaning.
