Cardi B Blames Trump For Ruining Her $3K Shoes

According to the rapper, the cart service was halted due to Trump's Super Bowl attendance, forcing Cardi to walk and damage her shoes. The rapper expressed her frustration during an Instagram Live, showing her ruined footwear and expressing her anger towards Trump.

“Look how f-cked up my shoes [are],” she said in a clip that a fan posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. “This shoe cost me three bands. All because of Trump. Now I like him lesser!”

The rapper added, “You didn’t have to go to no d-mn Super Bowl. F-cking up my shoe!”

Cardi also claimed the Secret Service was “not playing” and gave everyone “a hard time” at the big game.

Cardi B, still "too f-cking mad" about her ruined shoes during her livestream, called on Trump to bring her deported uncle back to the U.S. as compensation.

"Well, he definitely ain’t going to do that," she admitted, recognizing the unlikelihood of her demand.

Trump, who initiated mass deportations of undocumented immigrants following his inauguration last month, made history as the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl, though he left after the second quarter.

After seeing the clip, social media users slammed the rapper for her odd demand and her "IQ level."

Someone else demanded “Deport Cardi B.”

"That makes no sense at all, but okay," another expressed.

Meanwhile, another individual pointed out, "Who wears platform stilettos to a football game or any game for that matter?"

The administration has instructed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to broaden the use of "expedited removal," a process that allows deportations to proceed without going through immigration courts, where a judge would typically determine whether an individual can remain in the country.

Previously, this process applied to undocumented immigrants who did not seek asylum and were arrested within 14 days of entering the U.S. and within 100 miles of the border, a rule that already encompassed much of California.

“We will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came,” he said during his Inauguration speech last month.

Under the new directive, expedited removal is now extended nationwide and applies to immigrants arrested within two years of entry, significantly expanding the scope of fast-track deportations.

New Orleans was the place to be for Super Bowl 2025, drawing a star-studded crowd eager to witness the highly anticipated halftime performance by Kendrick Lamar. Among the expected attendees were Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes, both there to support Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes. However, the game also attracted some surprise celebrity guests, including Pete Davidson and Kevin Costner.

Die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan Paul Rudd was also spotted in the crowd. As a University of Kansas alum, his loyalty to the team runs deep, making his presence at the Super Bowl no surprise. With the Chiefs ultimately falling short, fans can only hope he’s handling the loss well.

Actor Miles Teller, a Pennsylvania native, was seen on the field before kickoff, accompanied by his wife, Keleigh Teller. While the couple sat with Taylor Swift at last year’s game, they appeared to stick with their home-state team this time around, seemingly supporting the Eagles.

Meanwhile, Pete Davidson, best known as the "King of Staten Island," made it clear where his loyalties stood, cheering for the Eagles throughout the game.

Another unexpected sighting was Hollywood legend Kevin Costner, whose presence at the game turned heads. Though he hasn’t been publicly linked to either team, Costner’s love for sports and football culture made the Super Bowl an ideal event for the "Yellowstone" star to attend.
