Fresh off her historic win at the 2019 BET Awards, Cardi B had a verbal altercation with Gelena Solano from Univision earlier this week, when the reporter tried to interview her without any prescheduled arrangement.
Univision uploaded the clip to their YouTube channel on Thursday (June 27), which shows Cardi politely decline the interview as she simply explained that she wasn’t prepared. Soon after, however, things got heated when Solana tried to quickly get a statement from Cardi’s father, which led the “Press” singer to get further agitated as she said “don’t put my father on TV, because my dad don’t walk around with security, and you don’t know people who’s gonna harm my dad.”
From there, she quickly exchanged words with a bystander walking down the sidewalk, as she continued to berate Solana by adding “don’t come around me with cameras without me knowing, that’s disrespectful I’m with my child.”
Meanwhile, Cardi recently addressed the incident on Instagram, saying in reference to the reporter “I’m not going to call her a b**** but I really want to call her a b****, she got in my dad’s way . . . That’s when I came out and I started bucking at her because I just told you I don’t want my f****** parents on camera. Why the f***, why the f*** are you not listening?”
Cardi later addressed the incident in an Instagram update saying that she loves the Univision show but found Solano’s approach to be unprofessional.
“Today, this woman, right, I’m literally taking my daughter out the car and as soon as I turn around, this woman put a camera in my face and she’s got a mic in my mouth,” she said. “I’m not going to call her a bitch but I really want to call her a bitch,” Cardi said in the Instagram clip. “She got in my dad’s way . . . That’s when I came out and I started bucking at her because I just told you I don’t want my fucking parents on camera. Why the fuck, why the fuck are you not listening?”
