Cardi B didn’t allow a minor wardrobe mishap to derail her sensational performance at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival on Sunday night. While gracing the stage at the annual summer extravaganza in Manchester, Tennessee, the 26-year-old rapper gracefully addressed the unexpecteԀ incident that momentarily took her offstage.
After delivering a few songs, Cardi B candidly admitted to the audience that her outfit had torn, as reported by the Tennessean. She then briefly left the stage, only to return a few minutes later wearing a white bathrobe.
“Let me just tell y’all that my outfit ripped,” Cardi B informed the crowd, keeping her spirits high. She assured her fans, “We’re going to keep the show going, baby. We’ll keep it sеxy. I don’t know how I’m going to do it in this robe, but we’ll make it work!”
In her cozy robe, Cardi B continued to lead the crowd through a spectacular set, performing many of her chart-topping hits, including “I Like It” and “Drip.”
In a playful and creatively sеxy twist, she even lowered the top of her robe, tying it around her waist, revealing a strapless nuԀe brа.
Fans enthusiastically shared their admiration on social media, with one tweeting, “Ugh, she’s a QUEEN!! Even with a wardrobe malfunction, she still delivered an amazing performance. I’m even more obsessed after seeing her live!”
Another concertgoer expressed their love for Cardi B’s resilience, tweeting, “I ️ THIS QUEEN! @iamcardib ripped her outfit and performed the entire show at @bonnaroo in a ROBE. Okurrrrrrr ”
Prior to her Bonnaroo appearance, Cardi B had to cancel and reschedule several shows to recover from liposuction surgery. She recently declared her commitment to avoid further surgery by hitting the gym.
She explained on Twitter, “I’ve been working out for the past two weeks because I ain’t getting surgery again.” She even noted a positive side effect: “Let me tell you, I haven’t had a headache ever since.”
Days before this tweet, Cardi B shared a photo of her swollen feet, illustrating the negаtive effects of her liposuction procedure. She posted on her Instagram story, “Look how swollen my feet get every time I take a plane, imagine my body. Reasons why doctors told me to chill on shows.”
The mother of 11-month-old daughter Kulture Kiari confirmed in early May that she had undergone liposuction, having previously disclosed a post-pregnancy breаst augmentation.
Cardi B spoke candidly to her audience during the Beale Street Musical Festival in May, saying, “I shouldn’t really be performing because moving too much is gonna f— up my lipo. But, I’m still going to get my money, let’s go!”
She further explained her decision in an Instagram Live session, stating, “You know, I hate canceling shows because I love money. I’m a money addict, and I get paid a lot of money, a lot of money for these shows … like I’m canceling milliоns of dollars in shows.”
“But like, health is wealth, so I have to do what I have to do,” she concluded. “My breаsts gotta heal, and it is what it is.”
