Have you ever heard someone tell you, "be careful what you post on the Internet, it never goes away."
We pretty much all heard it and guess what? It's true!
Ask Cardi B because an old skit from 3 years ago has her in hot water! (View skit HERE)
TMZ has released a clip of Cardi B that was filmed over 3 years ago where she jokes about Haitians, Puerto Ricans, and Mexicans The clip shows Cardi's character giving a step-by-step tutorial on proper hygiene, the skit is called "Ho Bath."
Check out Twitter reactions:
As a Mexican, I really don't see anything wrong with that Cardi B skit. Look up "Mexican shower" on urbandictionary, it's a joke that's been around forever. People just wanna find any reason to be outraged! #CardiB #comedy #NickiMinaj #music #hiphop #trap

@iamcardib as a Puerto Rican and a fan of yours, your skit offended me! You’re going to lose fans making rude stupid false jokes. Fuck you for that on some real shit. Always saying fuck you to the people who put you on the charts and helped you be successful.

This was racist even coming from Cardi B! Regardless who was saying this, I find the whole skit classless, gross and vulgar! Cardi is better than this and someone should tell her it’s ok to say NO!🤔😳😳😳

Cardi B being Dominican and making poverty jokes at the expense of Haitians is more than just a joke in bad taste. It’s a joke with deeply racist and anti-black history and reiterated that she’s trash and refuses to acknowledge her privileges because of where she comes from.
