Cardi B is Getting Sued For ‘Defaming’ MAGA People at the Beach
Cardi B is facing a defamation lawsuit after calling a group of Long Island beachgoers “racist MAGA supporters.”
The rapper made the comment in a video of an altercation between the group, Cardi’s sister, and her sister’s partner.
Cardi’s sister, Hennessy, and her girlfriend Michelle Diaz, were fighting at Smith Point Beach, reports Fox News. One of the men they were arguing with was wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat during the fight.
Cardi wrote on social that Hennessy and Michelle were harassed over where they parked their car simply “because they are a Afro/Hispanic gay couple.”
In the suit, the beachgoers allege the two women harassed them before defaming them in an edited video on social.
“These peaceful Suffolk County residents were quietly enjoying a Sunday at the Smith Point beach with their families, when rap celebrity Hennessy Carolina suddenly approached them, raging, spitting, insulting, assaulting, defaming and threatening them, all the while videotaping them because one of them wore a MAGA hat,” the plaintiffs’ attorney, John Ray, told Fox News.
“Then Hennessy, Cardi B and celebrity model Michelle Diaz deviously edited the videotape and published the edited version all over social media, across the world for all to see, and maliciously falsely labeled these residents and their families as ‘N…s’ and as racists,” John said.
