Cardi B has hit back at body-shamers before

This is not the first time Cardi B has hit back at body shamers who have criticized her body image at various points in time. In 2020, the singer hit back at some people for claiming she had photoshopped her social media photos.

"I have to do this video... yesterday I posted a picture too spicy, and the haters claimed that I was Photoshopped, so now I gotta show y'all this mother*****ng body. I know a b***h gained some weight. I have to make the thighs match the mother*****ng ass. I know y'all ain't bodyshaming me...," she said in an Instagram post.

In 2022, the singer reposted an old video of hers in a now-unavailable Instagram post. She hit back at body shamers for criticizing her figure before and after her cosmetic procedures.

I remember when, before everybody used to talk s**t about my teeth. But I fixed them. So now it's like, 'Um ... well ... well, your titties look mad fake. I don't know why y'all body shame b****s that got they body done [...] I got my titties done, I got my a** done, and guess what: when I pop a little n**** outta my p***y, I'm getting lipo too....," she said.

Cardi B also revealed in a now-unavailable Instagram post that she will be open to tummy tucking surgery. She referred to the fact that her 2019 surgery resulted in complications.

"This stomach is giving ‘tummy tuck. Like, it’s not bad, but I just don’t like this extra loose skin and it’s not—I am a little heavier than usual—but I don’t like it. I want to get rid of it.“I think Wavy did me wrong, So I can’t wait to put out this song and do more things after I get the f*ck out and do my surgery. I’m over it. Me and surgery goes together bad."
