- Cardi B won a $24M assault lawsuit decisively.
- She celebrated with a viral twerking video on Instagram.
- The jury dismissed the case after an hour of deliberation.
- She confronted a reporter over disrespectful questions post-verdict.
Cardi B celebrated a major legal victory by showing off her signature style. She stripped down to a thong and danced in a viral Instagram video. This performance happened just hours after a Los Angeles jury found her not guilty in a $24 million assault lawsuit filed by security guard Emani Ellis.
Fresh from a tense trial, the rapper used the clip to promote her upcoming single “Bodega Baddie,” while displaying her usual confidence.
Viral Celebration After Legal Victory
Cardi B really let loose after winning her case. In a video that quickly went viral, she began by unbuttoning her polka-dot blazer before dancing in a thong. The clip ended with her slapping her backside and giving the camera a playful gesture, all while smiling broadly. This celebration was her way of releasing the stress from the trial and signaling her return to music and public life.
From Instagram Video:
“She finished off the celebratory clip in true Cardi style, by slapping her famous rear end and flipping off the camera with a huge smile across her face.”
Courtroom Drama and Quick Verdict
The jury took about an hour to reach a unanimous decision in favor of Cardi B. The lawsuit arose from a 2018 incident where Ellis accused the rapper of assault, battery, and emotional distress.
Cardi B always maintained her innocence, asserting that she never physically touched the security guard. The trial included dramatic moments, featuring the artist’s engaging testimony and instances of courtroom humor.
Cardi B outside court:
“I’m not even playing around. Even if I’m at my death bed, I swear to God, I will say it at my death bed — I did not touch that woman.”

Confrontation Outside the Courthouse
Tensions rose during the trial when a reporter asked Cardi B about personal rumors involving her ex-husband Offset and her current partner Stefon Diggs.
The rapper responded by throwing a pen at the interviewer and criticizing his disrespectful question. She stressed that such intrusive inquiries were offensive and demanded more respect for her privacy.
Cardi B to the reporter:
“Why do you feel, as a man, you get to ask me those types of questions? Act like you have some manners and your mama taught you: ‘Respect women.’”
