Cardi B was returning to her hotel after the glamorous Met Gala on Monday night when an eager fan tried to get an autograph.
Her security didn't like this, and a dispute broke out, leading to the autograph seeker being thrown to the ground and beaten by her security team, he alleged.
Video footage showed the fan, Giovanni Arnold, being punched and stomped on while he laid on the ground.
Now the rapper has taken to Twitter to address the situation. “If you check my tag pics i take a lot of pics with fans. Some people are not fans & sometimes i don’t want no pics and i simply don’t want people too close cause of my pregnancy,” she wrote. “i don’t know what are people’s intentions sooo i Be careful. Why can’t people respect that?”
The 25-year-old is expecting her first child with fiancé Offset, who Giovanni alleged is the one who sent her entourage to “go after” him.
The injured fan was transported to New York Presbyterian Hospital for non-life threatening injuries, including neck and back pain. Police also confirmed that her entourage then “fled the scene.”
