Cardi B took a minor spill on stage during her Little Miss Drama tour stop in Las Vegas.

While performing her song “Thotiana” at T-Mobile Arena on Friday (Feb. 13), the 33-year-old rapper fell off a chair mid-routine. The moment was captured by fans in attendance and quickly made its way to social media.


Dressed in a lacy red ensemble, Cardi was straddling a chair and leaning back to engage with the crowd when she appeared to lose her balance and tumble onto the stage. Like a pro, she quickly recovered and continued thrusting her hips from the floor alongside her shirtless male dancers.

After finishing the performance, she stood up to a cheering crowd and joked, “That was the government!” while pointing back to the chair.

The jokes didn’t stop there. After the mishap went viral on social media, Cardi reposted the video on X and wrote the caption, “Can someone put a community note on this? This video is clearly AI.”

The “WAP” hitmaker kicked off her Little Miss Drama Tour at Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, Calif., on Wednesday (Feb. 11). During the show, she gave a Selena impression to hype up Latino fans in the crowd before addressing ICE.

“B—h! If ICE comes in here, we gon’ jump they a—es,” she said, drawing loud applause. “I’ve got some bear mace in the back! They ain’t taking my fans, b—h.”

The following day, the United States Department of Homeland Security responded to the Grammy-winner on X. “As long as she doesn’t drug and rob our agents, we’ll consider that an improvement over her past behavior,” the DHS wrote.

Canada Announces $600 Million Investment in Music and Media Amidst Online Streaming Act Controversy

As the U.S. government and major online streamers like Spotify and Apple Music push back against the so-called "streaming tax," the Canadian federal government will make its own investment to "provide stability and immediate support to Canada’s audio and audiovisual sectors."

The Canadian government is stepping in to support Canadian music and media amidst debates around the Online Streaming Act.

This morning (June 3), the government announced that it will offer immediate financial support for music, audio and audiovisual media with a $600 million yearly investment. The release says funding will "provide stability and immediate support to Canada’s audio and audiovisual sectors and keep our culture accessible and affordable for all Canadians."
