Cardi B has responded to Candace Owen’s tweet criticizing her WAP performance at the Grammys on Sunday.
Cardi B replied to conservative commentator Candace Owen by saying that the immediate past First Lady inspired her Performance at the just concluded 63rd Grammy award show.
Owens had described Cardi’s WAP performance at the Grammys as the “weakening of American society” and the “corrosion” and “end of an empire”.
Cardi responded by saying “WE MADE FOX NEWS GUYS !!! Wap wap wap”.
The two continued the back and forth for hours until Ms Owens said she took issue with the singer being used to encourage young women to “strip themselves of dignity”.
Cardi responded with the nude photo of the former first lady with the comment: “No! Candy, men treat women on how a woman allows a man to treat them.”
A second nude photo of Ms Trump posted by Cardi B was lightly censored, with the singer saying in an accompanying tweet that she didn’t know why Ms Owens was so bothered by “WAP”.
“I was just inspired by our former First Lady,” she said.
When Ms Owens asked why she was “obsessed” with the Trump family, Cardi said Ms Trump was her idol.
“She showed me I can be naked perform wap and still be a First Lady one day ! … wait so only White women can be naked and show their sexuality and evolve in their 30s but I can’t ? Wow America is soo unfair. To think this was the land of the free,” she said.
“I’m not your hype man I’m your MOTHER .You look for me when you need help on your career not the other way around .YOU NEED ME I DONT NEED YOU .Now say thank You mommy Belcalis,” she added.
