All About Laughs
Despite not taking home any awards, Cardi B still emerged a winner following Sunday’s Grammys. The “Bodak Yellow” hitmaker delivered an over the top medley of her hits “Up” & “Wap”. The performance included a giant bed, stripper pole and interactive CGI. Megan Thee Stallion also made a cameo.
Although the performance was initially marred by fans for its lackluster energy, it seems the haters were more concerned with the overall tone and message of the performance. A visibly tired Cardi B strutted around in next to nothing. She stop occasionally to grind on poles, back up dancers and even Megan. The two shared an impressive synchronized dance break that has already become a popular meme.
Candace Owens wasted no time tearing the performance to shreds during a Fox News segment. She said Cardi’s performance signified the corrosion and end of an empire for the Grammys.

“Yaaaayyyyyyy WE MADE FOX NEWS GUYS !!! Wap wap wap” responsed Cardi to a video of the verbal lashing.
This set off a extensive back and forth between the two via twitter. Candace continued to belittle Cardi and ask her to take responsibility for being a “cancer cell to the culture” and for poisoning the minds of young black girls.
Cardi on the other hand spent most of the exchange thanking Candace for the free press and educating her on women like Cardi who have risen from trying circumstances to become powerful and successful.
Some highlights below.
Just @ me next time, directly.

You are a cancer cell to culture. Young black girls are having their minds poisoned by what you are trying to package and sell to them as “empowerment”.
I’m one of the few that has courage to tell you the truth.
You should thank me. https://t.co/qvYriScfWm

I don’t work for Fox News, Belcalis, nor do I take issue with you having success.

I take issue with you being used to encourage young women to strip themselves of dignity.
Men typically treat women how they treat themselves.
You know that. https://t.co/1BZQOVTR6t
What is your obsession with the Trump family?

You are digging up modeling shots from our former First Lady from 3 decades ago. She has evolved, you have not.
What you did at the Grammy’s was disgusting.
Own it. https://t.co/LNEYdolGwd

Yes. Just spoke with my family. I am 100% suing Cardi for that nonsense. You can’t just start throwing out wild lies against private members of my family because you’re upset someone called your out on your degenerate performance.
