Cardi B has apologized after sparking backlash by hosting dinner for nearly 40 people on Thanksgiving.
The “WAP” star took to Twitter to reveal she had hosted “12 kids and 25 adults over the holidays,” adding: “It was lit!”
Her tweet caused controversy among her followers on the social media site, due to the fact that she held the bash during the coronavirus pandemic, with one person writing: “I can promise you it’s not worth it to everyone else who is affected by your poor choices aka the healthcare workers who you will run to when you’re sick.”
Another wrote: “Sis I love you but anyone behaving this way during a pandemic deserves to be dragged.”
