Your support makes all the difference.The star-studded Harper’s Bazaar Icon party at New York Fashion Week came to a heated end when Nicki Minaj and Cardi B almost came to blows.
A video has emerged of Cardi B shouting “b**** come here” at a woman while a security team interject. Variety has confirmed that the two people fighting were Cardi and Minaj.
Photos have since been posted online of Cardi B with a bruise on her forehead, allegedly from receiving an elbow to the head from one of Minaj’s security team. Minaj was unharmed and was quickly escorted off the premises.
The New York City Police Department is investigating the incident. Cardi B has since posted on Instagram, writing: ”I’ve let a lot of shit slide! I let you sneak diss me, I let you lie on me, I let you attempt to stop my bags, f*** up the way I eat! You’ve threaten (sic) other artists in the industry, told them if they work with me you’ll stop f****** with them!!
“I let you talk big shit about me!! I addressed you once in person, I addressed you a second time in person, and every time you copped the plea!! But when you mention my child, you choose to like comments about me as a mother, make comments about my abilities to take care of my daughter is when all bets are f****** off!!
“I’ve worked to (sic) hard and come too far to let anybody f*** with my success!!!!”
The pair have been feuding since last year when they both appeared on the Migos track “MotorSport.” Minaj has yet to comment on the bust up.
The New York party, held at The Plaza Hotel, was attended by multiple celebrities, including Christina Aguilera, Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid and Heidi Klum.
