Offset, Cardi B’s ex, was shot at Hard Rock hotel. She has ‘Drama’ of her own
Going on with the show.
As her ex-husband Offset recovers from a gunshot wound in a South Florida hospital, Cardi B is hard at work. The “Enough (Miami)” singer is criss-crossing North America on her first tour in six years.
Offset, the father of Cardi’s three kids, was shot Monday evening at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino near Hollywood. As of Tuesday afternoon, the former Migos member remained at Memorial Regional in Hollywood with “non-life threatening injuries,” according to Seminole police.
Another rapper, Lil Tjay, has been arrested in connection with the incident, which occurred during a scuffle in the valet area outside the Guitar Hotel, near Hollywood on State Road 7, around 7 p.m. Monday. Tione Jayden Merritt, 24, was taken into custody on a first-degree misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct-affray, aka a fight.
Cardi has not commented on the matter, which isn’t surprising. For starters, she is divorced from Offset and is a new mom with a different man. The singer’s brief relationship with ex-boyfriend NFL player Stefon Diggs produced a son, born in late November.
Two, as we mentioned, Cardi is busy doing her thing. Her Little Miss Drama Tour, in support of her most recent album, “Am I the Drama?” is still going strong. Cardi’s jet-setting commenced in February with a concert in Palm Desert, California. The 35-stop stadium tour eventually makes its way to South Florida. On Thursday night, Cardi plays Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise.
Three? The Grammy winner, 33, recently started a business venture, a haircare line called Grow-Good. And finally (deep breath) the NYC native just teamed up with Mayor Zohran Mamdani to promote an initiative called “2-K,” expanding access to free early childhood education.
How crazy busy is this indefatigable powerhouse? So much that she hasn’t updated her social media since last month, promoting a spread in Allure magazine.
On Cardi’s Instagram Stories Tuesday we didn’t see any statement about Offset — just a reminder to her 164 million followers that she’ll be on stage in Philadelphia in a few hours.
