American rapper, Cardi B has announced that she will be cancelling her performance at ONE Musicfest this weekend due to a medical emergency.
“I am so sad to share this news, but I’ve been in the hospital recovering from a medical emergency the last couple of days and I won’t be able to perform at ONE Music Fest.
“It breaks my heart that I won’t get to see my fans this weekend and I really wish I could be there. Bardi Gang – thank you for understanding and I’ll be back better and stronger soon. Don’t worry. Love yall,” Cardi, 32, wrote on X.
Cardi did not provide further details on the medical emergency. In August, however, she revealed that she felt “paralyzed” and “couldn’t move for two days straight” after she had a “freak accident” that almost led to a pregnancy loss.
“I was going down the stairs and I slipped a little. I practically fell, but I was trying to prevent myself from falling, so I was holding myself on the railing. My foot still slipped, and I kind of busted my ass,” the ‘I Like It’ singer explained in a conversation on X Spaces.
She later found out that she tore a ligament in her pelvis and it was right where her baby’s head was.
“I dilated and I was having contractions every two minutes for a whole 24 hours,” she said. “So they had to monitor me and I was in a lot of pain. I couldn’t move for two days straight.”
The rapper’s festival cancellation comes one day after she spoke out against her estranged husband Offset in a series of since-deleted posts on X.
Cardi filed for divorce from Offset for a second time on July 31 after six years of marriage. A representative for the ‘Bongos’ rapper confirmed the split, stating, “It’s not based on cheating rumours, but rather has been a long time coming.”
