Cardi B is having one heck of a year; not content with taking out the #1 solo chart spot with break-out single Bodak Yellow - knocking Taylor Swift off in the process - she also managed to become the first female rapper to do so in 19 years.
Oh, and then her boyfriend, Migos rapper Offset, proposed to her in front a sold-out crowd, taking her completely by surprise and producing what is quite possibly the best engagement video of all time.
If you propose & she doesn't get as excited as Cardi B was when Offset proposed, take back your ring 😂😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/N5rcEvvCak

Now THAT is the reaction you'd want if you were the one getting down on one knee.
Details of the ring that elicited those squeals of delight are slowly starting to trickle through, with TMZ reporting that Offset dropped a tidy AUD$713,000 on the enormous rock.
And it wasn't an off-the-shelf number either; the bling was custom made for Cardi by Pristine Jewellers, features an eight-carat teardrop diamond and two half-carat pear diamonds and took six weeks to craft.
It is bloody ENORMOUS and has a ton of hidden little features, which Cardi explained in a super cute Instagram video.
"Inside the details is pink diamonds, white diamonds right here, pink diamonds right here," the 25-year-old pointed out.
"Offset you went ham on the detail!"
Cardi B and Offset were first linked in February after collaborating on Gangsta Bitch Music Vol. 2 and have, for the most part, kept their relationship under wraps.
