Cardi B Testifies After Being Accused of Cutting and Spitting on Security Guard

Cardi B’s assault trial took center stage again this week as the rapper herself testified in response to shocking accusations that she cut and spat on her former security guard during a heated altercation. The testimony was anything but dull, with Cardi’s trademark fire spilling into the courtroom as she pushed back against the explosive claims.

The Allegations

The plaintiff, a former security guard, previously testified that Cardi B “lost control,” verbally abusing him before spitting in his face and even cutting him during the confrontation. The charges have fueled tabloid headlines for weeks, with some painting Cardi as a celebrity who uses her fame as a shield for reckless behavior.

Cardi B Pushes Back

On the stand, Cardi B categorically denied the accusations. “Spitting? Cutting? That’s a damn lie,” she said firmly, her voice echoing in the hushed courtroom. “Yes, I was angry. Yes, I was loud. But I don’t put my hands on people, I don’t spit on people, and I sure as hell don’t go around cutting nobody.”

At times, she grew visibly frustrated with the plaintiff’s attorney, rolling her eyes and snapping back at loaded questions. When pressed about whether she had “ever used her words as weapons,” Cardi shot back: “Words aren’t weapons. Lies are. And that’s what this is.”

Tension Mounts in Court

Observers described the atmosphere as electric, with jurors leaning forward as Cardi sparred with the attorney. The judge had to interject more than once, reminding both sides to keep the questioning professional. Despite warnings, Cardi’s fiery personality dominated the stand, her sharp comebacks drawing murmurs and smirks from spectators.

Fans Rally, Critics Doubt

Outside the courthouse, fans gathered to cheer Cardi on, chanting her name and waving homemade signs. Online, hashtags like #StandWithCardi and #CardiSpeaks began trending, with supporters praising her for refusing to let herself be painted as violent.

But critics remain unconvinced. “Her courtroom behavior only reinforces the image of someone who can’t control their temper,” one analyst noted. Others warned that even if the accusations can’t be proven, the lurid details—spitting, cutting, verbal abuse—could stain her public image long after the trial ends.

What’s at Stake

For Cardi B, this case is more than just a legal battle—it’s a fight for her reputation. Every glare, every sarcastic remark, every outburst risks being weaponized against her. If the jury believes the plaintiff, the consequences could be severe, both in court and in the court of public opinion.

One thing is certain: Cardi B’s testimony proves that when she’s on the stand, the courtroom is no less dramatic than one of her sold-out shows—raw, unpredictable, and impossible to ignore.
