Cardi B has issued a formal statement following her $3.8 million dollar court win against YouTuber Tasha K for libel and defamation. In a statement posted to Instagram, she said, “I am grateful for the jury and their careful deliberation over the past two weeks. I am profoundly grateful for the hard work and support from my legal team. Most importantly, thank you to my family and close friends who held my hand and helped me get the support I needed during this experience.”
She continued, “I thought I would never be heard or vindicated and I felt completely helpless and vulnerable,. I have never taken for granted the platform that my fame allows me to have, which is why for over three years I dedicated every resource I had to seek justice. After almost four years of repeated libel and slander against me, being able to walk away from this victorious brings me great happiness…”
Cardi continued, “The only difference between me and the high schooler who is being cyberbullied and lied on by their classmates is the money and resources I have access to. We collectively have to say enough is enough.” Meanwhile, Tasha K revealed that she will release a statement today (January 26th).
