American rapper Cardi B has announced plans to pursue legal action following an unexpected visit from Child Protective Services (CPS), reportedly initiated by an anonymous prank call.
The rapper took to an Instagram Live session to express her frustration and concern on October 22, 2024.
The late-night visit by the CPS was orchestrated by the prank caller claiming that her children were being beaten and abused.
Addressing the incident, Cardi B condemned the prank, referring to it as irresponsible and disturbing, especially considering her status as a minority in her neighbourhood.
She stressed how serious it was to involve her children and vowed to drag the CPS and the individual behind the prank call.
Cardi B also mentioned that she will employ the services of a private investigator to fish out the caller, emphasising that the well-bing of her children and her motherhood will not be compromised.
“To do a prank call with CPS to come to my gated mansion at 11 pm while my children are sleeping because of an anonymous call that my kids have been getting abused and beaten. Are you fucking dumb?” she asked.
“This is where the pranks start going too far, and you assholes think this is funny and it’s not funny.
“First of all, I’m the only coloured or Latin person in my neighbourhood completely and for people to pop into my house with cops and child protective services because someone made an anonymous call involving my children?
“I promise you this: I’m going to sue child protective services and I’m also going to sue the person who made this call and as soon as I wake up in the morning, I’m going to the bottom of this.
“I’m going to hire the best private investigator in the whole country because y’all take joking and shit a little too far. Don’t ever play with my kids or my motherhood or my ex-husband’s fatherhood. We don’t play that shit, my kids live great and have never been touched or hit. No matter how annoying they are, I never hit my kids”.
