Cardi B listed the reasons she considers herself a "perfect 10" in a recent tweet posted on December 17, 2024. This followed her Instagram Live session on December 15, during which she spoke about how men are intimidated by successful women, which was seemingly misconstrued on social media.
The rapper took to X to set the record straight after a tweet by @mymixtapez said she claimed, "Men prefer less attractive women because they are more submissive than perfect 10s."
Cardi B responded to the tweet by saying that her remarks were taken out of context. She said she was referring to how men were seemingly intimidated by women who make money because they were not easy to control.
She also added an anecdote of a man telling her he preferred to be with a "6 and not 10s" because of this, calling out the original poster for making it about her so people could bully her online. When X user @pallnandi asked Cardi if she considered herself a "perfect 10," the rapper replied:
"I didn’t… but I AM pretty face, pretty frame , little feet, smell good, never got a odor even when it’s that time of the month, got that grippy, street smart, a hustler, rich AF, A God fearing woman… Baby I can upgrade a man life AND buy yours!! A perfect 10."
Cardi B's response divided the internet, with one person claiming that the concept of being a "perfect 10" was meaningless in light of experiencing alleged infidelity.
"All this and still get cheated on. Shows it means nothing."
Several netizens agreed with this sentiment, while others took issue with the words Cardi B used to describe herself.
"Can you explain "got that grippy"," one person tweeted.
"“Got that grippy” and god fearing in the same sentence is nasty work sis," another person added.
"‘Little feet’ being listed as one of your best qualities has me finished," one person commented.
""Never got a odor even when it’s that time of the month" Good to know? I mean, jeepers. If this is what she says on social media, imagine bringing her to a business dinner," another user wrote.
However, several fans praised Cardi B for her tweet, calling her an 11.
"I call her an 11," one person posted.
"@iamcardib you described a perfect 1000/10. Don’t sell urself short," another person added.
"I fear you ate with that “baby I can upgrade a man life AND buy yours!!”," another person wrote.
Cardi B slams people who claimed she was looking for "man approval"
Cardi B's tweet about her being a "perfect 10" polarized the internet, garnering both support and criticism. Several netizens seemingly expressed discontent with the rapper talking about her positive attributes, with one X user claiming her post was "so deep-rooted in male approval."
The poster continued in a follow-up tweet that Cardi B's list of positive things about herself was "rooted in misogyny & stigmas." However, the rapper disagreed with this sentiment, saying she was not looking for "man approval" by listing things she liked about herself.
"EXACTLY how am I looking for a man approval because I said everything I LOVE ABOUT MYSELF !?You can’t even love qualities and admire yourself without these fake woke weirdos thinkin you being a pick me …..Like damn I can’t even love my feet," the rapper posted.
In another tweet, she talked about how people on the internet hated women who loved themselves and were proud of it. She added she did not need strangers telling her how to feel about herself.
