Cardi B opted for some understated glam to support her husband Offset at his Long Island, New York album release party for his new album, Set It Off.  The Bodak Yellow star, 31, looked lovely in a pair of soft grey, boot-cut jeans and a distressed brown leather jacket – a much softer look for the usually provocatively dressed rapper. 

She wore her long, black hair parted in the middle and straight down her back and had a big, happy smile on her face as she greeted fans and even watched one fan do some card tricks. The Drip signer carried a white Hermes Birkin handbag, which was not one of the three pricey bags Offset, 31, gave her for her 31st birthday on October 11.

Cardi B – who was born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar Cephus – carried her phone in one hand and wore off-white boots with her outfit. 

The Grammy winner’s vety long nails were jewel encrusted. Cardi happily supported her husband at the party and was seen chatting sociably with fellow guests. The performers began dating in early 2017, and they secretly tied the knot in September of that year.

The rap couple went on to start a family with the birth of their daughter Kulture, five, in July of 2018. In September 2020, Cardi B shocked many when she filed for divorce, although she ultimately reconciled with her husband. The pair added a son named Wave, two, to their family in September of 2021.

The Jealousy singer’s latest single is Bongos, which also features Megan Thee Stallion, 28.  In the video for the song, Cardi and Megan perform high-energy choreography which led fans to take on the Bongos Challenge and try to replicate their dance moves. 

The mascot of the WNBA’s New York Liberty, an elephant mascot Ellie, posted a video on TikTok this week dancing to the Bongos Challenge.  Alongside two other dancers, the trio executed the complicated choreography from the song’s music video. 

Cardi saw the video and re-tweeted it. She captioned her post: ‘Put me to shame …I love it.’
