Cardi B finds herself embroiled in controversy once again, this time addressing accusations of homophobia after an incident involving her wax figure. According to AllHipHop, the drama started when a video began circulating on X (formerly Twitter), showing a male “fan” spitting on Cardi B’s wax figure. In the video, the man can be heard saying, “They don’t have you in a dark shadow for no reason, b****. Nobody likes you.” Interestingly, this individual follows Cardi B on Instagram, making his actions even more perplexing.

The video caught the attention of a Cardi B fan account, which reshared it, prompting a response from the rapper herself. Cardi B replied, “But when I said be a BOY,” which led to a heated backlash from some users. One critic accused her of being homophobic, stating, “You are becoming so comfortable being homophobic and it’s disgusting.”

Cardi B did not hold back in her rebuttal. She firmly denied the allegations, saying, “Stop wit the fake homophobia bulls***. Im not homophobic I don’t care wtf you like to f*** and suck and eat on but be a f***in BOY you a grown a** man spitting at a wax figure of me. I wouldn’t allow no straight man buck on me ever! If you suck dick like me you not buckin on me neither and that’s just that!”

The controversy didn’t end there. The man who spat on her wax figure later posted a picture posing next to a statue of Cardi B’s rival, Nicki Minaj. He captioned it, “Be a Mother Be a Wife. Worried about me being a boy When your Husband is Messing with Ladies With Sticks @NICKIMINAJ Nicki Is Better #Barbz @BarbzFeedx.”

The allegations of homophobia against Cardi B are not new. Just a couple of weeks ago, she was criticized for using the “be a boy” phrase during another Twitter spat, which revolved around her rumored pregnancy.

Despite the recurring accusations, Cardi B continues to defend herself against claims of homophobia, maintaining that her comments are being misinterpreted and taken out of context. This incident highlights the ongoing challenges celebrities face in navigating the complexities of public interactions and the scrutiny of their every word.
