Cardi B took the witness stand Tuesday in her ongoing civil trial against former security guard Emani Ellis, delivering her side of a heated confrontation that occurred at a Beverly Hills medical building in 2018. The Grammy-winning rapper testified in an Alhambra, California, courtroom about an incident that happened while she was four months pregnant and trying to keep her pregnancy private.
The 32-year-old rapper, whose legal name is Belcalis Almanzar, was visiting her obstetrician’s office on February 24, 2018, when she encountered Ellis working security in the building. According to TMZ’s Cardi B’s testimony, Ellis was loudly announcing her presence and appeared to be recording her with a smartphone, which led to the confrontation between the two women.
