In a recent Instagram Live session, Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B expressed her outrage and frustration after an anonymous prank call led to an unwarranted visit from Child Protective Services (CPS) to her home.
The incident occurred on October 22, 2024, when CPS arrived at Cardi B’s gated mansion at 11 p.m., following a false report that her children were being abused and beaten. Cardi B, visibly upset, addressed the situation directly with her followers.
“To do a prank call with CPS to come to my gated mansion at 11 p.m. while my children are sleeping because of an anonymous call that my kids have been getting abused and beaten. Are you fucking dumb?” she exclaimed.
“This is where the pranks start going too far, and you assholes think this is funny and it’s not funny.” The rapper emphasized the seriousness of the situation, noting that she is the only person of colour in her neighbourhood.
“First of all, I’m the only coloured or Latin person in my neighbourhood completely and for people to pop into my house with cops and child protective services because someone made an anonymous call involving my children?” she questioned.
Cardi B vowed to take legal action against both CPS and the individual responsible for the prank call. “I promise you this: I’m going to sue child protective services and I’m also going to sue the person who made this call and as soon as I wake up in the morning, I’m going to the bottom of this,” she declared.
“I’m going to hire the best private investigator in the whole country because y’all take joking and shit a little too far. Don’t ever play with my kids or my motherhood or my ex-husband’s fatherhood.
“We don’t play that shit, my kids live great and have never been touched or hit. No matter how annoying they are, I never hit my kids.”
