Cardi B Responded To Carole Baskin's "WAP" Critique With A Tiger King Burn
Aug 13, 2020
Cardi B had some choice words for the public figures who have criticized her newest music video. Shortly after the Big Cat Rescue founder critiqued her for featuring big cats in the "WAP" music video, Cardi B fired back at Carole Baskin's claims that she encouraged animal cruelty by referencing the conspiracy theory that the Tiger King star killed her late husband . (As seen in Cardi's previous tweets , she's a fan of the Netflix docuseries.) But if Baskin was hoping to get a rise out of the rapper, she's going to be disappointed.
After Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion released the star-studded music video for "WAP" on August 7, Baskin told Billboard that the presence of tigers and leopards in the video "glamorizes" owning exotic pets and promotes animal cruelty. Now, in a new interview with i-D Magazine , Cardi B fired back at Baskin, in her signature outrageous fashion. "I’m not gonna engage with Carole Baskin on that," the rapper said when asked about the comments. “Like, that’s just ridiculous you know? Oh, Lord. Like, girl you killed your goddamn husband." Baskin has repeatedly denied the accusations that she was involved in the 1997 disappearance of her then-husband, Don Lewis.
Cardi also confirmed that the big cats in question were not present on the video's set, but were added into the shots digitally due to concerns over the cast and crew's safety. "We had to spend $100,000 dollars just on testing. Everybody on the shoot had to get tested for coronavirus," Cardi told the magazine. "We had a tiger and a leopard there, but we didn’t film with them in there because of safety and because of the pandemic. We spliced those scenes together.”
