Cardi B isn’t tolerating any nonsense, firing back hard at someone who dared to ask if she’s been bleaching her skin. The rapper responded to the online comment on Wednesday, calling the accusation ridiculous and explaining that her paler appearance is due to her pregnancy. According to Cardi, her unborn baby is draining her energy, leaving her pale, anemic, with sunken eyes and visible veins.

She added that sunbathing is off-limits because it quickly makes her feel overheated and dizzy, turning it into a real health risk. For now, she’s embracing her natural, lighter complexion.



Cardi ended her response with a signature mic drop, telling people to "stop thinking with your a**hole."

The skin-bleaching rumor started after Cardi posted a picture on social media where her friend was rubbing her pregnant belly. The image appeared to make her look lighter than usual, likely due to the camera flash.

This isn’t Cardi’s first pregnancy, and she’s well-prepared to handle things safely as she awaits the arrival of baby number three. She announced her pregnancy earlier this month, just a day after filing for divorce from Offset, whom she married in 2017.
