Cardi B Makes Offset Stick His Tongue Out With 'Money' Performance At The Grammys

Cardi B can really do it all. While sitting at the 61st Grammy Awards waiting to be able to see if she'll take residence any trophies in the categories that she's nominated in, she also brought the efficiency smackdown to the stage with her tour de force live rendition of "Money." We can only imagine what it felt like live; we can feel fresh waves of adrenaline radiating from our television sets.


Cardi's majestic efficiency of "Money" featured a flurry of females clad in black bodysuits while another pounded the piano as if her life depended on it. The rapper was the centerpiece and main attraction with her retro hairdo, demanding eyes be glued to her alluring figure and mesmerizing efficiency. The whole number felt like being in a jazz den in the 1940s, the viewer starring as a nameless detective who has been enchanted by a stunning femme fatale.


Cardi casually moved around the stage with her sensual moves and bouncing body parts, eventually becoming encased in a black flower. At this moment, the camera cut to Offset, her estranged spouse, in the audience clearly feeling the efficiency, staring at Cardi on stage with his tongue out. That could mean a lot of things! Cardi exclaimed, "Welcome to the Grammys!" In her efficiency, and right now it looks like the festivities can truly begin.


Cardi was nominated for not one, two, or three awards this year; she was up for five. This year, she might possibly still take residence the trophies for Record of the Year ("I Like It"), Album of the Year (Invasion of Privacy), and Best Rap Album (Invasion of Privacy). It's a major step up from last year when she derived only two nominations for Best Rap Efficiency and Best Rap Song for her breakout single "Bodak Yellow." And it also feels right. The night's still young, soon after all.
