Cardi’s publicist also commented on her cancellation, per Page Six: “Cardi was overzealous in getting back to work,” a rep reportedly said. “She didn’t take the time necessary to fully recover. Her strenuous schedule has taken a toll on her body and now has been given strict doctors orders to pull out the rest of her performances in May.”
It’s not the first time Cardi’s health has affected a performance—she also mentioned issues from her past procedures during a show at the Beale Street Festival in Memphis, Tennessee earlier in May.
“I have some news for y’all. I should have canceled today,” she said during her performance, according to People. “I shouldn’t really be performing because moving too much is gonna f— up my lipo. But bitch I’m still gonna get my motherf—ing money back, let’s go!”
Since giving birth to her daughter, Kulture in July 2018, the 26-year-old singer has been open about her decision to go under the knife—even hinting at liposuction a month after her daughter was born. “I still feel like I got a lot of love handles right here,” she said while pulling on her stomach, according to People. “It’s not much but it’s like — I’m used to having, like, a real tight stomach … I might just get a little lipo, you know what I’m sayin’?”
Cardi was also vocal about getting her boobs redone (she already had one breast augmentation surgery prior to Kulture’s birth) after her daughter was born. “Yes, my daughter f—ed me up,” she joked in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. “She did. She so did.”
According to 92Q, their Spring Bling Festival will be postponed until September 8th. Here’s to hoping Cardi will be rested and fully recovered by then.
