Cardi B Sets the Record Straight About Getting Her Butt Injections Reduced: ‘Stop Hating’
Cardi B has responded to online speculation about her appearance following recent weight loss, saying she does not need further reduction surgery because she has already had procedures to reduce her buttocks. She said she is comfortable with her body and urged critics to “stop hating”, while explaining that another operation would require significant recovery time.
She said her most recent reduction surgery was in January 2024, after having most polymers injected in 2018 removed in August 2022. Cardi B had previously suggested she might travel to Colombia for implant removal after her tour, but later said she had changed her mind; her February-to-April North American tour grossed over $70 million from 453,000 ticket sales.
In short
- Cardi B says she has already had reduction procedures.
- She rejects calls for further surgery.
- Her recent tour grossed more than $70 million.
Explained simply
Cardi B is an American rapper and performer known for her music career and high public profile. She has been notably open about cosmetic procedures she has undergone, including injections to enlarge her buttocks, which she had in 2018.
In recent years, Cardi B has chosen to reduce these injections. She had most of them removed in August 2022 and then underwent reduction surgery in January 2024. Her willingness to discuss such decisions is unusual among high-profile entertainers, who typically keep such matters private.
This openness about her cosmetic decisions is significant because it reflects broader cultural conversations about body image and physical appearance. Women in entertainment particularly face intense scrutiny regarding how they look, making public discussion of cosmetic procedures and their reversal relatively uncommon.
