Cardi B Celebrates MTV VMAs Victory and Promises to Return for Next Year’s Ceremony: ‘I Promise’

Cardi B  has promised to show up for the next MTV Video Music Awards  after missing this year’s ceremony, where she and Kehlani  took home the Best Hip-Hop award.

Notably, the category wasn’t announced during the main broadcast. Nevertheless, Cardi is treating the win for the official video of her Am I the Drama? track, “Safe,” as motivation to be present at next year’s event.

“As I deserve, bitch,” Cardi declared while celebrating the win on social media. She also pointed out that she was “seven months pregnant $and$ slamming myself on the fucking floor” during the filming of the Arrad-directed music video.

“Yeah, next year I’m going to the VMAs,” she added. “I promise, I promise.”
