A fierce fashion feud has ignited between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj, heating up the winter season with a clash of styles. The controversy erupted as both artists were spotted donning similar white fur coats and matching white extensions, leading to an online showdown among their respective fanbases.
Cardi B, known for her unfiltered persona, took to her Instagram story on December 23 to deliver a passionate response to accusations of copying Nicki Minaj’s style. In a fiery rant, the “WAP” singer dismissed the comparisons, emphasizing that the debate over a coat she wore for a brief moment was trivial. She clarified that the “old a**” coat was a part of her aunt’s archival collection, dismissing any intentional mimicry.
Expressing her indifference towards the ongoing feud, Cardi B asserted that she doesn’t care about these individuals as much as her fans seem to care about her. In a direct reference to Nicki Minaj, she declared that these individuals can’t dress compared to her, emphasizing her focus on enjoying her life without unnecessary distractions.
Nicki Minaj swiftly responded to the winter fashion face-off by sharing her own picture in a similar-looking fur coat on Instagram. The caption, quoting her own song “Barbie Dangerous” from “Pink Friday 2,” read, “B!***es Jackin. I’m still Queenin.”
The feud between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj has a history dating back to 2017 when Nicki Minaj criticized Cardi B’s husband, Offset. The tension escalated in September of the same year with a highly publicized face-off at a fashion event. The drama took a darker turn in 2023 when Nicki Minaj’s husband faced house arrest for threats against Offset. The ongoing rivalry continues to captivate fans, adding another chapter to the long-standing conflict between the two influential artists.
