'Some people just never change:' Cardi B defends Will Smith as she slams Tasha K for gay affair interview
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Cardi B expressed her frustration with Tasha K who she was involved in a legal battle with while talking in support of Will Smith.
The rapper’s reaction came after the blogger interviewed a former associate of Will Smith who claimed to have seen the actor having s*x with his friend Duane Martin.
Cardi B defends Will Smith on Instagram Live
Cardi B slammed Tasha's interview in an Instagram Live, saying, “I don’t like how I got fooled a couple of weeks ago… Some people just never change.”
She also defended Will Smith, saying, “I don’t like what people be doing to Will Smith.” She described Will Smith as “very unproblematic” and “nice hearted” and related to him as a fellow Libra.
“Libras, we be getting tried, we be getting tried, and then when we outburst, we outburst so f*****g heavy that we become the ones in the wrong.”
She said that false allegations can affect mental health and added, “I feel like y’all doing that to Will Smith.”
Cardi B took a jibe at Tasha K saying 'You should be able to detect whether somebody is 'b**********g'
Cardi did not mention Tasha K by name, but said as a journalist "you should be able to detect whether somebody is bullshitting or not coz anybody can say anything about somebody."
She added, "Someone can put something so salacious out and not think how this is going to affect someone's mental health."
In January 2022 Cardi B was awarded over $4 million for winning a federal libel case against Tasha K, as reported by Daily Mail.
Tasha had claimed that Cardi worked as a prostitute and contracted sexually transmitted infections, which she denied.
"After almost four years of repeated libel and slander against me, being able to walk away from this victorious brings me great happiness," Cardi B told People at the time.
"I appreciate Judge Ray for conducting a fair and impartial trial," she added.
Internet says 'Cardi B is she's gonna stand up for people'

"Cardi B is right, it was Tasha's responsibility to make sure the allegation was true before the interview, with not just words but real evidence," wrote another.
"As a Libra she is absolutely right!,' wrote one more. "That's why i love her so much," shared another user.
