Equality Issues Cardi B accepts Billboard’s Woman of the Year Award Billboard doesn’t always get it right when it comes to Woman of the Year, in my opinion.

Dumbass Cardi B and Celebrity Thanksgiving Thirst Last week on the Show Your Work podcast, Duana and I talked about Cardi B and how she answered those who were dragging her for being named Billboard’s Woman of the Year.

That’s why no one among us was too shocked to learn Cardi B filed for divorce this week, describing her three-year marriage as “irretrievably broken” and that “there are no prospects for a reconciliation.

Music Intro for August 10, 2020 Dear Gossips, How many times did you listen to Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s “WAP” this weekend or watch the video? It’s been celebrated, it’s been memed, it’s got Christina Aguilera feeling like this: #WAP got me feelin some type of way 💦 pic.twitter.com/ By Lainey • Aug 10, 2020 09:19 am
Music Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion: “bring a bucket and a mop” After a year-long break from releasing music of her own, Cardi B dropped the Megan Thee Stallion-assisted single, “WAP” midnight on Thursday. The NSFW song and video skips thinly veiled sexual innuendos, instead opting for in your face (Lainey: or … in your pussy) lyrics all about how “wet and gushy” By Cody • Aug 07, 2020 10:05 am
BFFs Megan Thee Stallion and Beyoncé are BFFs Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage” remix featuring Beyoncé is currently sitting at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 after 20 weeks on the chart, and having already peaked at #1.

Amazingness Cardi B’s COVID-19 Seminar I am always amused when celebrities refer to “celebrities” in the third person, as though they’re not it. Obviously, I am currently/perpetually doing post-doctoral work in the various strata of stars (who are we kidding) but usually when famous people refer to “celebrities” like they’re not a By Duana • Mar 26, 2020 12:55 pm
