Cardi B is currently traveling across North America with her "Little Miss Drama" tour, and one of her recent stops brought her to Dallas, Texas. During the show, she took a moment to reflect on the long history of sacrifices made by African Americans.
While speaking to the crowd, she gave recognition to her Latino supporters. “Shout out to my Latinos in the building,” she declared onstage, as captured by TikTok user @krystaonthemove. “But remember, you couldn’t be living comfortably in this country if these African Americans didn’t fight for us, motherf*ckers." She continued by naming several Latin American nations including El Salvador, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and Mexico.
This moment is not unusual for the femcee, who has been very outspoken throughout the tour. Earlier this month while performing in Minneapolis, she also praised local residents for standing up against ICE.
“Minneapolis, you are such a strong city. I’ve been seeing what’s going on in the news, and we wanna say thank you for your resilience, for your resistance,” she said. “I don't know why those motherfckers came to this state. Y'all nas is not p*y. I don't know why they came over here. They must not know how y'all give it up."
Cardi has also delivered some fiery comments during other tour stops. When she performed at San Francisco's Chase Center, she went on a passionate speech that fans believed was aimed at her former partner Stefon Diggs. “It’s called the principle. You can’t be out here playing with a btch like me. There’s na out here praying for a btch like me. You hear me?” she declared. “You ain’t never had a bad btch like this, na. Never in your motherfcking life! None of them btches ain’t fcking with me!”
Afterwards, she addressed the situation on Twitter/X to clear things up, explaining that the speech was not directed at Diggs and that she had only been reciting lyrics from one of her own tracks.
The Wildhearts have revealed that their singer and original member Ginger Wildheart has been diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL), an uncommon and fast moving type of cancer.
The update was posted on the band’s official social media pages on Tuesday (16.03.26), explaining that the artist first started suffering from “severe pains” while they were on their UK headline tour in December.
In the announcement, it was explained that Ginger carried on with the shows during the More Satanic Rites tour despite the pain, relying on medication so he could stay on stage and avoid letting fans down.
Once the tour wrapped up, he decided to undergo medical examinations to find out what was causing the persistent discomfort, and doctors have now confirmed the diagnosis.
The statement began: “During The Wildhearts’ incredible More Satanic Rites UK tour in December 2025, frontman and founding member Ginger Wildheart was experiencing severe pains that some nights forced him to take some short breaks from stage.
“Determined not to upset the band’s loyal fans new and old Ginger took painkillers to ensure the rock’n’roll was delivered, without missing a riff… We are saddened to report that Ginger has been diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) a rare but aggressive strain of cancer.”
Even with the diagnosis, the group shared that Ginger is still in “fine fettle” and has continued working on new material.
All of their upcoming performances, including their scheduled slot at Takedown Festival next month, are expected to continue as planned.
The band have also encouraged fans to send their encouragement and good energy as Ginger moves forward with treatment.
It continued: “While we process this news and await further medical advice, Ginger wants everyone to know that strength and positivity will prevail and the show will go on.
“Make sure you come and see The Wildhearts sounding bigger and more refreshingly amazing than ever at a venue near you soon.”
