Currently starring on the cover of Harper’s BAZAAR‘s Spring Fashion Issue after recently being named one of Entertainment Weekly‘s “Entertainers of the Year,” Cardi has fast become one of the most high profile stars of the current era. She is currently featured alongside Steve Carrell and Lil Jon in Pepsi’s acclaimed “More Than OK” Super Bowl commercial
An array of high profile TV appearances followed last year’s arrival of “INVASION OF PRIVACY,” including a hilarious installment of Carpool Karaoke on CBS’ The Late Late Show with James Corden and an in-depth special interview on CBS Sunday Morning. Other recent appearances include sitting down on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! during their popular Brooklyn Week, a stellar performance on NBC’s Saturday Night Live, and an historic installment of NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she served as both musical guest and the first-ever co-host in show history. What’s more, Cardi tore the house down at the 2018 BET Hip Hop Awards, performing “Get Up 10” and “Backin’ It Up” with Pardison Fontaine having only just lit up the 2018 American Music Awards with a spectacular rendition of “I Like It” joined by Bad Bunny and J Balvin.
Along with her “Best Rap Album” triumph, Cardi received a number of other nominations from the 61st Annual GRAMMY AWARDS, including “Record of the Year” (for “I Like It”), “Album of the Year” (for “INVASION OF PRIVACY”), and “Best Rap Performance” (for “Be Careful”). Cardi received an additional nod in the “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” category, honoring her role on Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You (Feat. Cardi B).” Additionally, Cardi received three 2018 AMA wins including “Favorite Artist – Rap/Hip-Hop,” “Favorite Song – Soul/R&B” (for “Finesse” with Bruno Mars), and “Favorite Song – Rap/Hip-Hop” (for “Bodak Yellow”).
