Cardi B held a high-energy audience spellbound as she performed a medley of hits for them at the In The Mix show held by TikTok

The rapper took to the stage and performed songs such as Get Up 10 and She Bad during her allotted slot.

The TikTok inaugural event was held on Sunday, December 10 at Sloan Park in Mesa, Arizona. 

The rapper rocked a sparkling red, bell-bottomed jumpsuit that was matched with a red lip and soft wavy hair. 

The event was also headlined by stars such as Niall Horan, Anitta, and Charlie Puth. There were also performances from rising stars Isabel LaRosa, Kaliii, LU KALA, and Sam Barber as part of TikTok’s emerging artiste program, TikTok Elevate. 

For those unable to attend the event in person, In the Mix was also streamed globally via TikTok Live.

Cardi B’s performance comes after she announced her split from her husband, Offset.

“I’ve been single for a minute now but I have been afraid to like — not afraid, I just don’t know how to tell the world,” she said in the clip. “But I feel like today has been a sign. The last time I got on Live, I kind of wanted to tell you guys, but I didn’t know how to tell you, so I changed my mind. But it has been like this for a minute now. I just took it as a sign.”

“I wanna start 2024 fresh, like fresh, open,” she added. “I don’t know. I’m curious for a new life, for a new beginning. And yeah, I’m excited”, the rap star added.

Information available shows that the sign Cardi B was referring to was a claim by Blueface in a now-deleted tweet to the effect that his ex-girlfriend and mother of his son, Chrisean, was intimate with Offset. 

Delving into the specifics, he claimed that Chrisean hooked up with the Migos rapper at Offset and Cardi B’s L.A. home in November this year.

Chrisean, however, appeared to deny the accusations on X, replying in part that Blueface was “making up sh-t.”

Offset has meanwhile refuted the claims on X with a tweet of his own. “I ain’t never talk or touch that lady,” he said in his rebuttal. “Real Talk man you need some help!”
