Cardi B has been spotted celebrating with an Italian sausage after accepting a plea deal with no prison time for hurling a champagne bottle at a pair of sisters working at a strip club, one of whom she accused of sleeping with her husband Offset.
Hours earlier on Thursday, the rapper, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, appeared at a Queens court and agreed to plead guilty to misdemeanor charges of third-degree assault and reckless endangerment, and faces 15 days of community service.
Following her court hearing, the Grammy-winning rapper made a quick visit to the San Gennaro Festival in Manhattan’s Little Italy, where she was seen relaxing with a Pepsi and sausage from a street vendor.
Although she sported fashionable white Louboutin stiletto heels for her court appearance, Cardi B changed into a pair of comfortable black slides for the street festival.
Despite her signature look of extremely long nails, Cardi B appeared to have no trouble navigating her soda can and sausage with peppers, to which she deftly added a squirt of mustard before returning to a waiting Cadillac Escalade with the food in hand.

The San Gennaro street fest, which started on Thursday and runs until September 25, is a Neapolitan tradition that has been celebrated in New York City since the 1920s.
Cardi B’s plea deal comes with a sentence of 15 days of community service, rather than the prison time she had faced under the original felony charges.
The case stems from a vicious fight at Angels strip club in New York City in 2018, when two female bartenders say they were assaulted by Cardi B’s entourage hurling bottles and liquor.
The surprise plea deal came just a day before jury selection in Cardi B’s trial was set to begin, and will allow the Grammy-winning star to avoid potentially embarrassing court testimony.
Cardi B arrived in Queens Supreme Court to plead out wearing a form-fitting white dress and white heels.
‘I’m feeling like I look good,’ she told reporters as she left the courthouse.
