Cardi B let her emotions get the better of her and threw a marker after a photographer yelled out a “disrespectful’ question over her viral pregnancy rumors in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The Grammy-winning rapper, who was on a lunch break during her civil assault trial, was exiting an Alhambra courthouse when the unidentified man confronted the “WAP” hitmaker.
“Cardi, insiders are claiming Offset is publicly bragging about getting you pregnant for the fourth time,” the man shouted over a crowd of reporters and fans. “Do you foresee any paternity issues with Stefon Diggs?”

The native New Yorker, who filed for divorce from rapper Offset in July 2024 and is dating the New England Patriots wide receiver, immediately fumed at the question.
She launched a marker, which she had taken from a fan who sought an autograph from the rapper, in the man’s direction, according to the video from ABC7.
“Stop disrespecting me,” the rapper, whose real name is Belcalis Almanzar, said in response. “Don’t disrespect me.”
“I still love you even though you just threw some stuff at me,” the man shouted, to which the “Bodak Yellow” hitmaker replied, “I don’t care. You’re disrespectful. Don’t do that.”
The “Drip” vocalist then looked in the direction of the photographer as she scolded him over the question’s double standard.
“Do you see women asking those type of questions to me?” she asked. “Why do you feel, as a man, you get to ask me those type of questions? Act like you have some manners. Your momma taught you, respect women.”

After the heated exchange, she jumped into a waiting vehicle before rolling down the windows and telling fans that she’s not answering any more questions, according to a video shared online.
“Y’all are not going to see me after that, and you can thank him,” she said. “I’m not playing around. I was very nice I was very kind … Nobody’s going to get that no more.”
Later in the day, the jury unanimously found the Bronx-raised rapper not liable for assault and battery in the $24 million lawsuit filed by her former security guard, Emani Ellis, in 2020.
