CARDI B: Awarded Total of $4 Million

For a second day, Cardi B celebrated a victory in court.

The jury sided with her in a libel case against a vindictive blogger. That verdict awarded Cardi $1.5 million.

Then on Tuesday, the judge granted her $1.5 million in punitive damages, and another $1.3 million to pay attorney’s fees. Altogether, the judge ordered YouTube blogger Tasha K to pay $4 million. She was found guilty of spreading malicious lies about Cardi’s sexual history, drug use and the mental capacity of Cardi’s first child.

Cardi B released a statement, (quote) “After almost four years of repeated libel and slander against me, walking away victorious brings me great happiness. (Variety)
