CARDI B'S SECRET: RAPPER GOES UNDERCOVER WITH SHOCKING CONFESSION ABOUT HER BUTT REDUCTION SURGERY!

In a jaw-dropping revelation, Cardi B has come clean about her secret past – one that's got everyone talking in the entertainment industry. The Grammy-winning rapper made headlines on Wednesday's episode of Call Her Daddy podcast, where she confessed to undergoing a butt reduction surgery and being stuck on bed rest for three long months.

The 32-year-old starlet revealed that she had already gotten the procedure done, but not without having second thoughts about her decision. "I look at myself in the mirror, and it's like, I really wouldn't change a thing," Cardi confessed to podcast host Alex Cooper, with a hint of self-acceptance. However, she couldn't help but admit that there are times when she wishes her backside was even smaller – a sentiment that has sparked endless speculation among fans.

But here's the tea: Cardi B had already taken the plunge and got a butt reduction procedure done! The star revealed that it wasn't an easy decision, especially given the extensive recovery time involved. "For me to reduce my butt, I have to literally sit on the table, get cut from the bottom, get cut from the top, and be on bed rest for three months," she explained, leaving listeners speechless.

And let's talk about the aftermath of her surgery – Cardi B was left stuck in bed for a whopping 3 months! "I'm not gonna put myself in that position again because you don't like my body," she firmly declared to anyone who dared to criticize her curves. The candid admission has sent shockwaves throughout the industry, with many fans and fellow celebrities weighing in on social media.

But that's not all – Cardi also addressed the rumor mill surrounding her love life and body. "There's a rumor that my boyfriend dumped me because my BBL stink," she revealed, before setting the record straight: "I don't know who made the rumors that BBLs stink, but it doesn't...stink. How will a BBL stink if you have no open wounds?" The rapper even took to Instagram to share a hilarious photo of herself sporting a concerned expression, as she debunked the ridiculous claim.

When asked about her relationship with NFL star Stefon Diggs, Cardi confidently confirmed that things are "good" between them. But what's really got everyone buzzing is her recent public appearance – just one day after dropping her bombshell confession on Call Her Daddy. The rapper stepped out in a daring look for a meet-and-greet event at Fingerprints Music in Long Beach on Thursday, flaunting her curves in a super short shorts and crop top combo.

Fans were left gagging over Cardi's outfit choices – from the snakeskin-patterned, platform boots to massive gold earrings and camo-printed baseball cap. The rapper was promoting her second studio album, Am I the Drama?, which hit shelves last week on September 19.

And if you thought that was all, folks – there's more! Back in August, Cardi B took to the witness stand to testify in a civil lawsuit filed by a security guard who claimed she attacked him with her fingernails. But after months of drama, the rapper has finally been cleared of assault and battery charges.

She also said she still wishes her backside was even smaller sometimes but confessed she would not go through the reduction procedure again

As for her advice to fans, Cardi B dropped some real talk: "It's just like, you can't let people turn you crazy." Wise words from a woman who knows a thing or two about staying true to herself – even in the face of endless scrutiny.
