American rapper Cardi B has waded into the controversial Brother Bilaal interview about Hollywood star Will Smith

In an Instagram live video, Cardi B shared her discontent with Tasha K, the interview host in which Bilaal made wild claims about Smith.

In the interview, Bilaal, a former assistant to the actor, Bilaal claimed that he unexpectedly walked in on Will Smith engaging in intimate relations with actor Duane Martin. The revelation sparked widespread interest and raised eyebrows in the entertainment industry.

Cardi B bashes Tasha K for allowing Bilaal to dirty Will Smith

While many have shared varying opinions about the trending interview, the 31-year-old blamed Tasha K.

According to Cardi, who ‘beefed’ with Tasha K in the past, Will Smith is an unproblematic guy who does not deserve to be treated in such a manner.

“I don’t like how I was fooled a couple of weeks ago…I don’t like what people be doing to Will Smith. I feel like Will Smith is very unproblematic, and I feel like he’s got a nice heart.”

Expressing her concerns about the situation, Cardi B highlighted her discovery that Will Smith is a Libra.

“I always said this — like Libras, we be getting tried, we be getting tried, and then when we outburst, we outburst so fucking heavy that we become the ones in the wrong.”

She emphasized the potential harm of spreading unverified stories, stating, “Anybody could say a f*cking fake-*ss story about you, and people [are] going to f*cking fake-*ss believe it, so it should be your job to detect whether something is a lie or not, like to have any type of proof. And it’s so fucked up that somebody could put something so fucking salacious out and not think about like, ‘Oh, well, how is this going to affect this person’s mental health?’”

Jada Pinkett Smith reveals they will be suing

Meanwhile, Jada Pinkett Smith has revealed that together with Will Smith, she intends to sue Brother Bilaal, who claimed Will Smith and Duane Martin were physically involved. 

Brother Bilaal made the claims during an interview with Tasha K and it has sparked nationwide debate. 

However, 52-year-old Set It Off star, during an interview with The Breakfast Club with Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy, indicated that “It is based around this person’s idea that they, in some way, were doing business around Will’s book, and that they spent money or whatever, and that they needed to be compensated. So he tried to do this money shakedown. Will was willing to give him a certain amount, and he didn’t take it. So this whole situation is based on that.”
