Cardi B turned heads with her daring wardrobe choice in the music video for “Up,” a look that could even make Jennifer Lopez blush. The rapper, who is 28 years old, shared a behind-the-scenes video from the shoot, offering fans a closer look at the eye-catching costume. The footage revealed that Cardi wore pasties, G-string, and various body stickers for the mirror selfies taken during the making of the video.
Cardi B made a bold fashion statement in her music video for Up, sporting a revealing outfit that could rival Jennifer Lopez’s iconic style. In a recent behind-the-scenes clip shared by the 28-year-old rapper, fans got a closer look at the eye-catching costume.
Featuring bright pink pasties adorned with rhinestones that covered her nipples and underboob, Cardi also rocked matching G-string undies with a delicate gold strap. Despite the sheer bodysuit appearance with pink kites and dangling gems, the outfit was actually made up of carefully placed stickers on her chest, stomach, legs, and arms.
Alongside dangling crystals and long, pointy nails, Cardi’s hair flowed in soft waves as she flaunted her daring ensemble. The mother of one teased the release of her music video with the caption, “UP OUT FRIDAY !! You ready?” Showing off her fearless fashion sense and confident attitude.
Stickers and a G-string: Recent photos indicate that the actress from Hustlers was sporting pasties (nipple stickers) and a tiny G-string in a series of mirror selfies.
Pasties and body stickers have been traditionally used by strippers and dancers at events like the Rio de Janeiro Carnival, but they gained popularity with mainstream celebrities around ten years ago, like Nicki Minaj, who wore them under sheer tops.
Today, there is a wide range of pasties and body stickers, also known as body decals, available on the market, featuring designs such as stars, crosses, and even alien heads. Different textures like rhinestones, crystals, and pearls are also being used.
Body stickers are a common sight at raves as a replacement for traditional clothing. Ravers often opt for full kits that include stickers resembling necklaces, pasties, and stomach tattoos, which are sometimes referred to as ‘body jewels.’
In a recent Instagram post, Cardi B clarified that her outfit was adorned with carefully placed stickers on her chest, stomach, legs, and arms. She excitedly announced the release of her upcoming project, saying “UP OUT FRIDAY !! You ready?”. While some may opt for Vadazzle, a practice of placing stickers on private parts, Cardi chose to wear a G-string instead. These temporary stickers can be easily removed with warm water. The video cover art showed Cardi posing in a transparent bubble chair suspended over a swimming pool, with a city skyline in the background and her pink heels reflected in the pool below.
A fresh style: Instead of clothing, women at raves are now rocking body stickers that resemble necklaces, pasties, and stomach tattoos known as ‘body jewels.’
“Excited for my upcoming single ‘UP’ releasing this Friday! LETS GOOOOOO!” the celebrity announced on Monday, along with the hashtag #Up.
The ex-dancer also encouraged her followers on Instagram to pre-order the promotional CD for her new track.
This upcoming single will be Cardi’s first release since her hit collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion, “WAP,” last year.
Exciting news! Cardi B just announced on Instagram that her new single, “Up,” will be dropping later this week. This highly-anticipated song has been creating a lot of excitement due to its explicit content and an eye-catching music video that includes appearances by celebrities like Kylie Jenner. In addition to the announcement, Cardi shared some heartfelt messages on Twitter expressing her gratitude to her fans for their unwavering support. It’s always great to see artists showing appreciation for their loyal followers!
She has a knack for style: The music sensation is famous for wearing bold outfits. Back in January, the singer donned a dress that flaunted her figure.
“I’ve been getting ready for this week for over a month. But today, I’m not feeling quite like myself. I’m really glad that you all are happy, and just know that I do this because you all support me so much.”
Shortly after, she posted another tweet: “I’m only human and even though I believe I’m strong, sometimes it all gets to be too much,” she shared, without specifying what was bothering her.
“I can’t thank my fans enough for lifting me up and standing by me. It can really get overwhelming,” she concluded.
This social media activity comes after Cardi hinted at an announcement in a video on her Instagram, where she stood on her stairs dressed in a sexy bikini and garter underneath a long coat.
The outspoken rapper topped off her look with a Christian Dior head wrap, a personalized necklace, and a stylish handbag.
