Cardi B is addressing accusations of “queer baiting” caused by her appearance in Normani‘s recent music video, “Wild Side”.
The rapper took to Twitter on Friday to fire back at Rolling Stone after an article published by the outlet claimed that she was among the celebrities who have capitalized “on the suspicion that they may be romantically involved with another same-sex person for the sake of publicity, promotion or a capitalistic gain.”

I don’t like this new “queer baiting” word.I feel like it pressure artist to talk about their sexuality or their experiences that they don’t feel comfortable speaking about.If a artist kiss a girl on a video does that means she gotta show videos & text wit wit other women?
