Cardi B hits back at criticism over cosmetic surgery: 'I do whatever I want to do with my body'

Cape Town – Cardi B has lashed out at people criticising her for undergoing cosmetic surgery.

In an Instagram Live video, the Bodak Yellow hitmaker clarifies that she "whatever the fuck I want to do with my body" before addressing those who have accused her of being lazy.

"I don’t have the time of day like you do. My job as an entertainer is a 24-hour job, bro. So, no I don’t have time to work out. I wanted specific things that I know that no matter how much I work out won’t get fixed."

The 26-year-old – who revealed she had breast augmentation and liposuction procedures after the birth of her daughter, Kulture, in July 2018 – went on to reveal that she is losing "millions of dollars" because she can't work while she recovers.

"I hate cancelling shows because I love money. I'm a money addict.

"I get paid a lot of money, a lot of money for these shows. A lot of money. I'm cancelling millions of dollars in shows, but health is wealth so I have to do what I have to do."
