Cardi B spoke to reporters outside the courthouse after winning her civil case, expressing gratitude to her legal team, the jury, and supporters. The rapper, who said she missed her children’s first day of school due to the trial, firmly denied ever touching the plaintiff and vowed not to settle future “frivolous” lawsuits—warning she will countersue instead. While celebrating the verdict, Cardi also urged fans not to harass the other party online, stressing she wants the matter left in the past.
00:00So first thing first, I want to thank my lawyers, I want to thank the jurors, I want to thank the judge, and I want to thank the respectful press.
00:11I really, really appreciate that, and I want to thank everybody at home supporting me.
00:17I know you guys are having a little key with the moment, but to be honest with you, I have missed my kids' first day of school today.
00:24I missed my kids' last day, last week of school yesterday because of this, and I'm not even playing around.
00:34I will, even if I'm in my deathbed, I swear to God, I will say it in my deathbed, I did not touch that woman.
00:42I did not touch that girl.
00:43I didn't lay my hands on that girl.
00:46And with that being said, with that being said, this time around, I'm going to be nice.
00:52The next person to try to do a frivolous lawsuit against me, I'm going to countersue, and I'm going to make you pay.
01:01Because this is not okay.
01:03I think people have, like, these misinterpretations of celebrities, like, it's like, oh, well, we can ask for this, and they're going to settle.
01:09You don't work at home, and you don't work all day, and you don't work for your money to give out your money.
01:15So don't ever think that I'm just going to give you my money that I work hard for.
01:19I don't lay in bed all day, I work all day, and I work hard for my money, for my kids, and for people I take care of.
01:26So don't you ever think that you're going to sue me, and I'm just going to settle and just give me my money.
01:32It's not going to happen.
01:34I do also want fans at home, though, not to find their social media, her family's social media, her social media, and bother her.
01:42I hope that this is something that I leave behind, that she leave behind.
01:46Don't go bother her.
01:47Don't be talking about her.
01:48Don't be talking about how she looks.
01:49Don't call her no nasty names.
01:51Let's just put this behind, but I'm giving a warning.
01:56I am not that select that you're going to sue and you think is going to settle.
02:00I'm not going to settle, especially when I'm super, completely innocent.
02:04I know I got a little reputation, but I swear to God I'm innocent.
