JUST IN: Cardi B Break Social Media Silence With Shocking Announcement Over Having More Children While Responding To Pregnancy Speculations

It seems Cardi B has plans to expand her family with more children in the future.

While responding to fans questioning whether she’s currently pregnant, the 32-year-old rapper playfully replied, “not yet,” hinting at her desire to have another child someday.

It’s unclear, however, if Cardi has any prospective suitors to father her future children. The mom of three—who shares daughter Kulture, 6, son Wave, 3, and a newborn with her estranged husband, Offset—is currently in the middle of a divorce.

Cardi B on the other hand, raised eyebrows this week when she debuted her new ‘butt crack’ piercing on social media.

And now a body piercing expert is issuing an urgent health warning to any fans who are thinking of copying the rapper’s buttocks jewelry.

Brian Keith Thompson, who owns Body Electric Tattoo in Los Angeles, told TMZ that Cardi B’s gluteal microdermals — a type of horizontal surface piercing — have a high risk of infection.

This is due to the jewelry’s close proximity to the anus as well as its lengthy healing process, which Thompson said can take ‘at least a year.’

‘Those things are really hard to heal. You’ve got to give it your all,’ he stressed. 

Thompson also warned that piercings in that area can scar ‘really badly.’

He urged the ‘general public’ to steer clear of the trend unless they are experienced with microdermal piercings like Cardi.

‘Once you do something like that, you own it. So, all the problems that come in, you’ve got to own those too.’

Thompson revealed that he is responsible for the microdermal piercings on Cardi B’s chest and he also famously pierced her lip for her 2020 cover of ELLE magazine. 

‘If someone can pull it off and heal those [piercings], it’s going to be [Cardi]. That woman is a bada**,’ Thompson told the outlet. 

Thompson then dished on Cardi B’s ‘pain level’ when he gave her her chest microdermals.

He admitted that although she ‘handled it’ like a ‘bada**,’ the star was ‘nervous’ and definitely found it painful.

Cardi B unveiled her ‘butt crack’ piercing on Sunday night.

The mom-of-three first shared a tweet writing, ‘Soooo …….i got my butt crack pierced’ along with a laughing emoji.

After fans questioned the piercing’s existence, Cardi — who gave birth to her third child with ex-husband, Offset, 33, four months ago — returned with proof, posting an up-close look at the body art.

‘Do I lie ?’ the hip hop star — who also has an extensive tattoo collection — asked in the caption. 

The photo featured two diamond studs adorning the upper portion of her buttocks.

Cardi — born Belcalis Marlenis Almanzar — already has several other piercings, including in her ears, nose, chest, belly button, lip and eyebrow. 

Originally, fans did not believe the star, with one writing, ‘How is it even physically possible?!’

‘Ok where’s the pic,’ another asked.

After she shared a photo, fans were still surprised, with one asking, ‘What happens if you forget it about it for months ???’

‘What’s the reason behind it? Pun intended,’ someone else chimed in.

It’s not the first time Cardi surprised her fans with new body piercings. 

Last year in June, she got an ear piercing while shopping at the Maria Tash jewelry shop in Los Angeles.

Previously in 2020, she shared with fans that her chest piercing was rejected by her body.

In a graphic video, the rapper touched the piercing to show that it was being pushed out of her body.

And in 2019 she showed off her surprise lip and neck piercings.  

Aside from her piercings, Cardi also has an extensive collection of ink on her body, including a very colorful peacock and butterfly design going all the way from her thigh to her ribcage.

The Bronx native also has a massive back floral tattoo that features bright flowers, butterflies and a hummingbird, in an array of colors including various tones of purple, orange, blue, red, yellow and green, among others.

She also has a face tattoo spelling out her son’s name, Wave, in red ink on her jaw.

The new piercing comes after Cardi shared a sweet photo of herself spending quality time with two of her children, Kulture, six, and Wave, three, last week.

The hitmaker took to her Instagram Story to share the snap, proving that she is prioritizing her kids amid her bitter divorce from rapper Offset.

‘I missed my babies,’ she captioned the post, which showed her holding her youngsters close. Missing from the picture was her four-month-old baby girl — whom she also shares with the former Migos star.

The New York native appeared to be sitting in her dressing room with her son Wave sitting on her lap and her daughter Kulture standing beside her while focusing on a tablet.

Her heartwarming family photo comes amid her ongoing split from her estranged husband Offset, 33. The Grammy winner filed for a divorce from the Migos rapper for the second time in July 2024 after six years of marriage.

For the past month, Cardi has been demanding that Offset sign their divorce papers ‘TODAY.’

In October, Cardi slammed her ex as a ‘garbage bag’ and a ‘dirty a** narcissistic piece of s***’ in a now-deleted rant on X (formerly Twitter).

She clarified that she didn’t wish him death but that he gets ‘hit by a f***** truck.’ Cardi also wished the ‘worst on this man,’ and added that she never ‘hated somebody soooo much’ as him.

The couple married in September 2017, before announcing they were splitting up in 2018 due to his alleged infidelity.

The couple reconciled, but Cardi B filed for divorce again in September 2020, only to call it off two months later.
