Cardi B has blasted anyone who loves to insult celebrities when they buy material things in an extravagant manner.
In a new Instagram post, the rapper said that celebrities dish out cash anyhow it pleases them because it is a necessity to sustain the kind lifestyle they have worked so hard for.
She also revealed that nobody should open his or her mouth to talk about how she spends her own money, especially the ones that say the money would’ve served a better purpose if it was donated to charity.
Her words, “You know what I hate? I hate when celebrities do something very extravagant, buy something very luxurious – there’s people in the comments like, ‘You could’ve donated that! Oh, we goin’ backwards! You could’ve done this and that with your money!’ And it’s like, ‘Who are you to tell people what to do with they hard workin’-a** money?’ First of all, do you know that artists, celebrities – the IRS, out of every check that you make, they automatically take 45% of your check. That means in order to spend 500,000, you gotta make at least a million.”
“Then, like, a artist like me, and a lot of rappers that I know – they literally take care of they whole family. And that’s not tax reducible because the IRS don’t consider that a business. On top of that – being an artist, looking good for y’all, doin’ all this extra sh*t to please y’all – that sh*t costs money! Like, me, for example – my bills, it’s like I’ll say about 300,000, [or] 250,000 every single month. And I try to put it cheaper, and it’s just not.”
