I like it like that. It just always gets me in the mood to party. Okay?
So let's begin with the cardi B facts
We all hear her being called cardi B, right, but what's her actual name?
You see her real name is a bit of a tongue twister. Her real name is Val Collis Merle. ENOS alabanza
Try seeing that more than once without pausing. And then with that being said going on to the second fact
Now, how did she even get the name cardi B?
Well, it's actually a shortened version of the liquor company
But cardi the name Bacardi was a nickname that was given to her because she has a sister whose actual name is, Tennessee
Which is an alcoholic drink
So, of course the nicknames for cardi would follow when you have a sister named Hennessy
It's just a given now as cardi started on social media
She used a nickname Bacardi and other variations like Bacardi B stuff like that
and then she noticed that her Instagram account kept getting deleted maybe because she had the word Bacardi and her name so she
Shortened it to just cardi B and it stuck query B was born on October
11th 1992 and she was born and raised in the Bronx New York City now before making it big in the music
Game cardi says that she took to stripping to get enough money to move away on her own because she was in an abusive relationship
So she just had to get away also during that time. Cardi B went back to school
But she didn't stay in college for long. However, she did escape a very toxic
Relationship and it was her online presence starting from the year 2014 that actually landed her a spot on season six of the vh1 reality
TV show Love & hip-hop, you know her career has like super
Skyrocketed from then but you know with all the success and money that she's getting now cardi B
She still has a very giving heart
She was once called the Michelle Obama of the hood and cardi says that she tries to inspire girls from the hood by
speaking in a more relatable language so that she could be
Understood so she doesn't try to speak with all this proper English. No, she wants to be really related to the women that she's really
Representing and fighting for now. I did mention that cardi B has a sister named Hennessy, but cardi B also has six other siblings
Well half siblings and those are on her dad's side
They were born through her father's other
Marriages because her parents broke up when she was just 10 years old now for those of you who hear cardi B speak you can
Hear that. She has a very thick accent
Well, her first language is actually Spanish because her parents first language is Spanish
They wanted her to be able to speak their native tongue as well
Even though she grew up in the United States another the interesting fact relates to cardi B and her self-esteem
Issues and you wouldn't really think that she has any self-esteem issues now
Just because of how like blunt and open she is but when it comes to plastic surgery
Cardi B is very upfront about how it played a role in her self-esteem constantly having to flaunt herself
You know to get paid and all of that she found herself really comparing herself to a lot of other female dancers
Well, she does say that she always felt pretty being around the other female dancers
Just had her self esteem like get a lot worse and worse
She said that it felt like a necessity to get them done and by them. I mean, you know these things
Can't really say it. I gotta keep you PG on YouTube, but another experience cardi B had with surgery happened in the year
2014 party B got some under the table in Jack into her behind in someone's basement for
800 bucks and like it's so crazy
Well, she even said it that was a craziest pain that she's ever felt and on top of that
She didn't have any numbing done at all. So she felt
Everything and she said that she felt so dizzy and she thought that she was gonna pass out
Lesson learned and she says do not get anything injected into your body. That's under the table
Not medically supervised by a recognized professional and the final fact that I have for you is about her religion and spirituality
When some people look at cardi B's history and life, they don't necessarily associate her with religion at all

Knows her and is guiding each and every step that she takes so that's it for your top 10 facts about cardi B
