Cardi B revealed that she’s actually ‘really shy’ and played Plead The Fifth on Monday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live.
The 30-year-old rapper looked lovely in a figure-hugging turquoise gown while promoting her new collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion, 28, titled Bongos on the Bravo talk show.
Show host Andy Cohen, 55, was surprised to learn the Grammy-winning rapper was timid around people.
He relayed a question from a viewer named Evelyn who wanted to know what was Cardi’s best fan girl moment when meeting another celebrity.
‘Ooh, it’s a lot. When I meet another celebrity, I just like freeze up,’ Cardi said.
New song: Cardi B revealed that she’s actually ‘really shy’ and played Plead The Fifth while promoting her new song Bongo on Monday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live on Bravo
‘You ever seen that Summer Walker meme where she’s like this,’ Cardi said as she impersonated the 27-year-old R&B singer’s awkward ramrod posture at the 2019 BET’s Soul Train Awards.
‘I always freeze up. I rarely talk. Sometimes celebrities be like, ”Can you give her my number?” A lot of celebrities go to people I work with and they be like, ”I don’t think she likes me”,’ Cardi revealed.
‘And it’s like, no, I love them. I just like get mute. I don’t even know what to say,’ Cardi said.
‘I’m really shy,’ she added. ‘You are?,’ Andy asked. ‘Yes. I really am,’ Cardi said. ‘Yeah.’
Andy then asked who wrote Bongos and Cardi took credit for writing it.
‘I really had to read the lyrics today. That doesn’t seem like a shy person that’s writing that song,’ Andy said.
‘No, no, no, I’m shy around people I don’t know,’ Cardi clarified.
Andy then forwarded another viewer question and asked Cardi what it meant to her after Megan Thee Stallion recently stated that she was the only female in the industry who has consistently supported her.
Very shy: ‘You ever seen that Summer Walker meme where she’s like this,’ Cardi said as she impersonated the 27-year-old R&B singer’s awkward ramrod posture at the 2019 BET’s Soul Train Awards

Freezes up: ‘I always freeze up. I rarely talk. Sometimes celebrities be like, ”Can you give her my number?” A lot of celebrities go to people I work with and they be like, ”I don’t think she likes me”,’ Cardi revealed
Song lyrics: ‘I really had to read the [Bongos] lyrics today. That doesn’t seem like a shy person that’s writing that song,’ Andy said
‘I couldn’t believe that she felt that way about me. I was like thank you. Because, you know, sometimes, like, you know, when I be seeing like drama going on online, I be wanting to hit her up, but I just be so shy. I’m too shy to hit her up. Sometimes when you’re going through things, you just want to be left alone,’ Cardi said.
‘But I be sending my little wave messages,’ she added.
‘I can’t believe you’re so shy,’ Andy said. ‘I know. I always been like that. Just quiet. Quiet on my own time,’ Cardi said.
Cardi later played the talk show’s signature game Plead The Fifth in which guests are given three questions and allowed to not answer only one of them.
Andy first asked Cardi to name the most famous person who has slid into her direct messages on social media.
‘Serena Williams,’ Cardi answered. ‘That’s a good one,’ Andy said.
Andy followed up and asked if they were ‘buddies’.
‘You know what? We’re not buddies, but when we see each other, we have like real women-women talks. She gets me,’ Cardi said.
‘In a 2017 interview with Billboard magazine, you admitted that a lot of designers refused to work with you. So you decided to purchase their clothing until they realized what a fashion icon you were. What is one designer that refused to work with you that then came crawling back years later?,’ Andy asked for his second question.
Cardi hesitated and looked around before answering.
‘I plead the fifth,’ she said, which references the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution that provides protection against self-incrimination in criminal cases.
‘I had a feeling,’ Andy remarked.
For his third and final question, Andy asked, ‘Out of your nine Grammy nominations, which one did you feel like you were the most robbed of?’
‘Bodak Yellow,’ Cardi said referencing her hit 2017 single from her debut studio album Invasion Of Privacy that was nominated for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song at the 2018 Grammy Awards.
‘Yeah, you felt like you had it for that,’ Andy said.
‘But then I won,’ Cardi said smiling while referencing her Grammy win the following year for Best Rap Album.
Andy later noted that Cardi was a supporter of US Senator Bernie Sanders, 82, in the past and asked for her current thoughts about the election and if she was paying attention.
‘I’m not paying attention. I’m not supporting nothing. Don’t ask me nothing. I’m not looking at anything. I’m just going ride with the flow. I’m just like…I’m over it,’ Cardi said.
Andy also forwarded a question from a viewer who wondered how much Cardi, a former dancer at a strip club, usually tips during a night at a strip club.
‘I overdo it,’ Cardi admitted.

‘You do? I had a feeling,’ Andy said.
‘And you know what? What I don’t like, I feel like back then the strippers would dance a little harder. Now it’s like the girls don’t even climb the pole,’ Cardi said.
‘Are they lazy?,’ Andy asked.
‘They’re lazy,’ Cardi said. ‘They’re lazy. And I be spending like racks.’
