Rapper Cardi B was seen sparking mega controversy with a politically charged outburst when she addressed a massive crowd regarding the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Mid-performance, the star was seen pausing to ask if there were any Mexicans or Guatemalans inside the audience, and then warned that if ICE agents tried to enter her concert.
She and her fans were seen jumping their asses, adding how she had to bear mace backstage and that they are not taking any fans.
The statement swiftly went viral on social media. The remarks drew a massive public reply from the Department of Homeland Security, which used the official social media account to mock the threat, referencing Cardi's past admissions of drugging as well as robbing different individuals before her fame.
Cardi slammed it online, shifting the broader focus to bigger controversies and accusing officials of avoiding more serious concerns.
The matter has slowly become a major flashpoint in the ongoing national debate regarding immigration enforcement, displaying how celebs increasingly use such platforms to speak on different social and political matters.
