Watch Cardi B Surprise Students At Her Old School In The Bronx

Fresh off a week that concluded with five Grammy nominations to cheer about, Cardi B started another week with an appearance on CBS This Morning on December 9. She kept busy throughout it, too: She's filmed taking photographs with fans on the street and revisiting the supermarket in the Bronx where she had her first job.


Yet most notably, the 26-year-old rapper also addressed her ongoing beef with Nicki Minaj, a feud that escalated back in September at a New York Style Week event that ended with Cardi reportedly throwing a shoe at Minaj. "It's unnecessary, yet am I ever embarrassed about anything that I do? No," she mentioned in the new interview.


"I think it's bad for organization. A lot of people like to mention all publicity is beneficial publicity. To me, it's not 'cause that takes away [from] people paying attention to your craft," Cardi continued. "It makes people not even pay attention to your craft. They just wish to be able to see drama."


Right following the incident, Minaj called it "something mortifying and thus humiliating to go through in front of a bunch of upper-echelon people" on her Queen Radio show.


In the segment, Cardi did not address her recent split from hubby Offset, though Offset tweeted about the scenario over the weekend with an eas trademark all-caps message: "FUCK YALL I MISS CARDI."


The CBS clip finishes with a nice bit where Cardi returns to her old high school, surprising a class of current students. It feels good, and it's the holiday season, so why not?


Nevertheless more than anything else, the segment is needed need for how we get to be able to see such an outsized personality like Cardi — someone who does better communicating directly to her fans by means of the Instagram than by way of the any other medium — sit down for the sedate trappings of a Sunday-morning, network-television interview. "I feel like people feel like I'm very reachable. While I talk, I make a lot of mistakes, like I could mention words and the words are not even in the dictionary," she says at one point. Nevertheless people still like it because you could tell that I'm saying it from the heart."
