Cardi B has been facing an assault charge in a Los Angeles court where a security guard named Emani Ellis was suing her for $24m for allegedly cutting her cheek with a 3-inch fingernail and spitting on her. The civil case ended with a jury entirely clearing Cardi B of any wrongdoing in a case that has since stuck with fans for all the viral clips where the singer’s personality completely took over the proceedings.
Ellis worked security at an obstetrician’s office in 2018. At the time, the Grammy Award winner was pregnant with her first child, and it was not yet public knowledge. Cardi B was on the verge of releasing her debut album, and she was undoubtedly one of the biggest names in music — so understandably, if a story about her pregnancy leaked to the press, it would “break” the internet.
