Cardi B complains about having to wake up for court-ordered community service
Cardi B headed for court-ordered community service in style on Friday after pleading guilty to lesser charges in September for a fight at a strip club in 2018.
The 30-year-old rapper appeared in court last month after missing a 15-day community service sentence as part of her plea bargain, but a judge later extended the deadline to March 1.
“My brain is on fire from waking up early, community service and then studying…but I committed the crime ‘My own fault’.” tweeted Cardi, who took a mirror selfie moments before leaving for work.
The WAP hitmaker was decked out in designer goods, including a cropped $2850 beige bomber jacket over a black shirt and tan heeled boots.
She was carrying a Balenciaga Yellow Tape hourglass bag, which can cost upwards of $3,000.

Cardi began her community service commitment shortly after her January 17 arraignment in Queens Criminal Court, where she was granted an extension on March 1.
On January 20, he revealed on Twitter that he was already in his ‘second day’ and urged his followers to ‘obey the law’.
On Wednesday, the mother-of-two also dressed up in hair, makeup, and a designer outfit in a similar post.
The Bodak Yellow hitmaker settled the August 2018 assault case in September last year by pleading guilty to two misdemeanor charges, while ten other charges, including two felonies, were dismissed.
Two co-defendants have also pleaded guilty.

According to prosecutors, Cardi B and her entourage were targeting employees of the Angels Strip Club in Flushing, Queens, over an apparent personal dispute.
He allegedly told eight people, including Tawana Jackson-Morel and Jeffrey Bush, to attack the Baddie Gi and Jade sisters.
In 2019, Cardi B rejected a plea deal that would have granted her a conditional discharge. Prosecutors then presented the case to a grand jury and obtained an indictment that included both felony counts.
During sentencing, prosecutors described the melee by saying: “Victims allegedly had glass bottles thrown, alcoholic beverages thrown in their faces, and a woman’s head was smashed against the bar.”
After receiving her light sanction for the incident in September, the rapper went to Little Italy in Manhattan where she celebrated the decision.
Speaking to reporters as she was leaving court, Cardi said: “I feel like I look: good.”
The plea agreement also stipulates that Cardi provide the court with a DNA sample and prohibits her from contacting the victims in the case for three years.
Her statement after the prayer read in full: ‘As a mother, it’s a practice I’m trying to instill in my children, but the example starts with me.

I have made some bad decisions in my past that I am not afraid to face and acknowledge. These moments do not define me and do not reflect who I am now.
“I am looking forward to getting over this situation with my family and friends and getting back to the things I love the most: music and my fans.”
In a brief statement, her lawyer Drew Findling told DailyMail.com: ‘Personally and professionally, Cardi is dedicated to community service and charitable work. Therefore, she is grateful that the court has given her until March 1 to complete her community service commitment in Queens, New York.”
Cardi has been very busy in recent weeks as she took the Grammy Awards season by storm by hitting the star-studded red carpet and presenting the award for Best Rap Album.
She also attended a glamorous pre-GRAMMY gala with her husband Offset, where they gave a steamy presentation for photographers and celebrated Valentine’s Day together.
She and the 31-year-old Migos rapper have been married since 2017 and have two children: daughter Kulture, four, and son Wave, one.
Cardi gave fans a glimpse of her lavish Valentine’s Day celebration in snaps shared on Instagram. Going all out, Offset treated Cardi to an extravagant display of heart-shaped foil balloons, an abundance of flowers within his sprawling Georgia estate, as well as a giant bear shape made of roses.
