I never had to bang a DJ to play my songs. You call black women roaches. Real bitches never attack a woman. You’re angry and you’re sad. This is not funny. Get this woman some fucking help. This woman’s at the highest point in her career and she’s throwing shoes? Who the fuck is gonna give her an intervention?” The incident took place at the Harper Bazaar fashion week party on 7 September. In several videos on social media, Cardi can be seen lunging toward Minaj and throwing a shoe at her before the security entourage intervened. Cardi was escorted from the party and photographed leaving barefoot, with a lump on her forehead. The back of her dress was also torn. According to Variety, the injury was due to Minaj’s security guards elbowing Cardi while breaking up the scuffle.
