Fresh out of a $24 million civil lawsuit, Cardi B isn’t taking disrespect from anyone.
While exiting the courtroom in Alhambra, California, on Tuesday, Sept. 2, the 32-year-old rapper threw a pen at someone who asked about pregnancy rumors amid her divorce from rapper Offset and her new romance with NFL player Stefon Diggs.
“Cardi, insiders are claiming that Offset is publicly bragging about getting you pregnant for the fourth time,” the man is heard asking. “Do you foresee any paternity issues with Stefon Diggs?”

A video circulating online, as well as footage published by Reuters outside the courthouse, shows Cardi immediately grab a pen and throw it at the man. “Stop disrespecting me,” Cardi says. “Don’t disrespect me.”
She then proceeds to walk toward her vehicle with security by her side.

“I still love you even though you threw some stuff at me,” he responds.
“I don’t care. (You’re) disrespectful, don’t do that. Do you see women asking those types of questions to me?” Cardi replied. “Why do you feel, as a man, (that) you get to ask me those types of questions? Act like you have some manners. And your mama taught you, respect women.”
Cardi is then seen inside the vehicle with the windows down, telling a crowd of reporters that they can thank that man for a lack of civility in future media appearances outside court. “Y’all are not going to see me after that, and you can thank him,” she said. “I’m not playing around. I was very nice I was very kind … Nobody’s going to get that no more.”
USA TODAY has reached out to Offset about the alleged comments made about his ex-wife.
Cardi B found not liable in civil assault case

The video comes after a jury unanimously decided Cardi was found not liable in a $24 million civil lawsuit from a Beverly Hills security guard who accused Cardi B of assaulting her outside of a doctor’s office in 2018.
Emani Ellis’ lawsuit, which was first filed in February 2020, alleged Cardi spat on her and scratched her nose during an altercation outside of an obstetrician’s office.
Speaking to reporters after the verdict, Cardi repeated her assertions of innocence, saying, “I did not touch that woman, I did not lay my hands on that girl.” She vowed to file a countersuit if she were ever named again as a defendant in a “frivolous lawsuit.”
In the week leading to the verdict, the Grammy-winner went viral after footage shared online showed her testimonies recounting what occurred between the two.
“At that moment, when you’re pregnant, I’m very disabled,” she said. “I was pregnant. I couldn’t protect myself, even if I wanted to. She’s like twice my size.”
