Alright, alright, let’s talk about this Cardi B gal, the one they put in that fancy magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, back in 2019. Yeah, that one.
So, they got pictures of her, all dressed up like a princess or somethin’. A white dress, they say, with sparkly stuff on it. She’s sittin’ there, lookin’ out like she owns the place. Well, maybe she does, with all that money she’s makin’. They call her a “star” now, can you believe it? Started out makin’ funny videos on that “Insta-gram” thing, and now she’s in magazines. Lord have mercy!
- She’s from the Bronx: That’s what they say. A city place, real crowded and noisy, I bet. Not like here, where it’s quiet and peaceful.
- She’s a rapper: They say she sings those fast songs, the ones the young folks like. Hip-Hop, they call it. Makes my head spin, all that thump-thump-thumpin’.
- She’s got style: They got her wearin’ all kinds of fancy clothes. A lady named Vera Wang made ’em, they say. Must’ve cost a pretty penny. But she looks good, gotta give her that.
This magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, they put her on the cover. March 2019, they say. And they talked to her about all sorts of things. About bein’ famous, about her family. Can’t imagine what that’s like, havin’ everyone know your business. Must be hard, but I guess she’s doin’ alright. They talk about her “rise” in the hip-hop world, like she climbed a ladder or somethin’.
Remember that shoe thing? Yeah, they even brought that up. Apparently, she threw a shoe at another lady, Nicki somethin’-or-other, at a party Harper’s Bazaar threw, called it the “Icons” party or something fancy like that. Can you imagine? Grown women throwin’ shoes! My grandkids behave better than that. But I guess that’s how they do things in that fancy world.
They call her a “fashion hero,” can you believe that? A hero for wearin’ fancy clothes. Well, I guess everyone needs a hero, even if it’s just for lookin’ good. They say she’s “unlikely,” which I guess means they didn’t expect her to get so famous. Shows you, anyone can make it big these days, even if you start out makin’ silly videos.
And the pictures, oh my! They got her lookin’ all dreamy and stuff. Like a fairy tale, they said. Mariano Vivanco, that’s who took the pictures. He made her look real nice, gotta give him credit. But it’s all a bit much for me, all that glitz and glamour. Give me a good pair of overalls and a comfy chair any day.
So, that’s the story, as far as I can tell. Cardi B in Harper’s Bazaar, 2019. A girl from the Bronx who made it big. Good for her, I say. But me, I’ll stick to my quiet life here. Less noise, less fuss, and definitely no shoe-throwing.
They said she was 25 then, just a young thing, really. Imagine, at that age, being on the cover of a big magazine. And it wasn’t just any magazine, it was a fancy one. The kind you see at the grocery store checkout, with all the pretty ladies on the front. And they made her look real pretty, with all that makeup and fancy clothes.
They say she’s got a big personality. Loud and outspoken, that’s what they say. Not afraid to say what she thinks. Well, good for her, I say. Too many people these days are afraid to speak their minds. But she ain’t afraid of nothin’, it seems. That’s probably how she got so far.
And they wrote about her family too. I guess family is important, no matter who you are or how famous you get. Hope she remembers where she came from, that’s what I always say. Don’t let all that fancy stuff go to your head. Stay grounded, that’s the key. Remember your roots.
So, there you have it. The story of Cardi B and Harper’s Bazaar. A little bit of glitz, a little bit of glamour, and a whole lot of hustle. That’s what it takes to make it in this world, I guess. Hustle and a whole lotta luck.
