Cardi B reportedly became upset during a Saturday Night Live rehearsal over a joke about Nicki Minaj. According to sources, she destroyed equipment backstage amid her ongoing feud with the rapper. The incident occurred ahead of SNL's 1,000th episode on January 31.
Oh honey, the tea is piping hot from the SNL set! According to TMZ sources, Cardi B was prepping her musical guest performance for the show's milestone 1,000th episode on January 31 when drama erupted. As the 'Weekend Update' anchors rehearsed their bits ahead of dress rehearsal, Cardi overheard a joke targeting Nicki Minaj's recent MAGA affiliation. Even though the quip had zero to do with her, Cardi lost it—big time—thanks to their infamous beef, including Nicki's past social media jabs at Cardi's kids.
Things got messy fast. Sources say Cardi threatened to bail on the show, allegedly chucked her phone at a backstage TV monitor, and stormed into the producers' office to punch a screen until it shattered. 😲 The crew had to swap out that busted screen before dress rehearsal could even kick off, leaving everyone on edge and spooked. Ultimately, the offending joke got axed from the script.
TMZ reached out to Cardi B and SNL reps, but crickets so far. With their history of shade-throwing, is this just another chapter in the Cardi-Nicki saga, or did SNL just dodge a bigger bullet? Spill more if you know!
