Cardi B Slams Skin Bleaching Rumors During Pregnancy: ‘So Dumb!’
One of the first things I quickly learned about being pregnant is that there are certain things I can no longer do, like enjoying a second cup of coffee, indulging in raw fish, or even eating deli meats and certain soft cheeses. On top of that, I’ve had to give up some of my favorite beauty and skincare products. Many pregnant women, including celebrities like Cardi B, face these same restrictions. Recently, Cardi B addressed rumors about her skincare routine, particularly shutting down the narrative that she’s been bleaching her skin while pregnant with her third child.

“Bleaching while pregnant?” she responded with multiple side-eye emojis. “Why must y’all be so dumb? Actually, NO! I’m pregnant, I’m slightly anemic, this baby’s sucking all the energy out of me to the point I’m pale, eyes sunken, veins green ASF, can’t tan under the sun ’cause I get hot super fast and dizzy… PLEASE STOP THINKIN’ WITH YOU’RE A–HOLE!”
The National Library of Medicine says that while some skincare ingredients and procedures can be risky for pregnant women and might even pose a threat to your baby, it’s worth mentioning that there are still plenty of beauty products that are safe to use during pregnancy.
It seems Cardi B just can’t escape the rumor mill, and she’s got plenty of time to address the wild stories that come her way. Recently, she admitted that she “hated” living in Atlanta as she goes through a divorce from Offset. During an Instagram Live on Thursday (August 22), she threw some shade at her soon-to-be ex-husband’s hometown, clarifying that she’s actually based in New Jersey with her kids, even though many assumed she was still living in Atlanta with the former Migos rapper.
“I don’t live in Atlanta. I have a house in Atlanta. I only go to Atlanta like three or four times a year. And probably I go for a week, maybe less. I tried to move to Atlanta in 2018 and lived there for like six months. And I hated it. I don’t have not one friend in Atlanta, and I don’t have not even one family member in Atlanta. So I just don’t like Atlanta,” she explained.
Cardi B filed for divorce from Offset for the second time earlier this month, following a long period of growing apart, according to a source close to the couple who told TMZ that the split was “a long time coming.”
