Cardi B remains among the dwindling number of celebrities who freely express their candid views about X, formerly known as Twitter. Known for her fiery social media exchanges with fellow celebrities, Cardi doesn’t hold back when confronted. Although she’s recently expressed a desire to reduce her involvement in online disputes, completely walking away isn’t in her plans.
Cardi B said she wants to limit the time she spends fighting on Twitter
A staple in the music industry for several years, Cardi B has just dropped her second studio album and is currently on tour. Reflecting on her journey to stardom, she shared some words of wisdom she wished she could offer her younger self.
“Honestly, I would tell myself, ‘Why are you arguing with people on Twitter? What’s the point, girl?'” Cardi remarked during an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.
When Fallon inquired about her penchant for social media clashes, Cardi simply replied, “I don’t know. But it was fun. I had a good time.”
Fallon pointed out that she no longer needs to engage in these online disputes, and Cardi agreed. While she’s not entirely abandoning Twitter confrontations, she’s making a conscious effort to spend less time embroiled in them.
He noted that she no longer has to get into spats online, and she agreed. She hasn’t given up Twitter feuds altogether, but she’s tried to limit the amount of time she spends on them.
“Well, not as much. I reduced the time,” she said. “Before I would argue for like 13 hours.”
Cardi B recently got into a bitter argument with Nicki Minaj on Twitter
While Cardi said she has limited the amount of time she dedicates to online feuds, she recently got into a huge one. Cardi and Nicki Minaj, who have feuded for years, got into it online in 2025. They spent days firing insults at each other over social media after Minaj claimed Cardi’s album sales had been unfairly inflated.
The feud quickly got personal. Minaj directly mentioned Cardi’s children, prompting Cardi to accuse Minaj of abusing drugs and impacting her son’s development. A post in which Nicki threatened to kick Cardi’s child made the latter threaten to take the fight off social media.
“Didn’t you say you was in NY???” she wrote. “This past words now.. WHERE TF YOU AT??? Cuz today gonna be the day I go to jail.”
She said she tries to avoid drama
Though Cardi said she once spent most of her day feuding with people, she admitted that drama exhausts her. Still, she admitted she can be an instigator.
“I be every kind of tired and it exhausts me,” she told Paper Magazine. “There’s drama that I expected to come. Because if I’m throwing shots at b****es, I expect the drama to come from them. I’m not gonna act like, Oh, it wasn’t gonna come when I’m directly talking to you. I can’t be surprised that a b**** is trying me, because I pull their cards.”
She said she found it frustrating when people tried to start drama with her unprompted. She felt that she couldn’t avoid it.
“However, when people just be trying you, and you’re not even paying attention to them, you’re not even talking to them about them, it’s like, This is why I say that I am the drama,” she said. “I even bother b****es when I don’t even give them attention. It’s still an issue. So that just means that is that. I am the drama. No matter how much I avoid it is gonna come to me. It’s gonna come to me even with the stupidest stuff.”
