American rapper Cardi B has vowed to take legal action after receiving an unwarranted visit from Child Protective Services (CPS) due to an anonymous prank call.
Cardi B shared her frustration and concern during an Instagram Live session on October 22, 2024.
The call alleged her children were being abused and beaten, prompting a late-night visit to her home from CPS and law enforcement.
Cardi B condemned the prank as irresponsible and disturbing, particularly given her status as a minority in her neighbourhood.
She emphasised the seriousness of involving her children and threatened to sue CPS and the individual responsible for the call.
The rapper vowed to hire a top private investigator to identify the prankster, stressing that her children’s well-being and her motherhood will not be compromised.
She said: “To do a prank call with CPS to come to my gated mansion at 11 pm while my children are sleeping because of an anonymous call that my kids have been getting abused and beaten. Are you fucking dumb?”
The mother-of-three condemned the prank as not only irresponsible but also deeply concerning.
She said: “This is where the pranks start going too far, and you assholes think this is funny and it’s not funny.
First of all, I’m the only coloured or Latin person in my neighbourhood completely and for people to pop into my house with cops and child protective services because someone made an anonymous call involving my children?
“I promise you this: I’m going to sue child protective services and I’m also going to sue the person who made this call and as soon as I wake up in the morning, I’m going to the bottom of this.
“I’m going to hire the best private investigator in the whole country because y’all take joking and shit a little too far. Don’t ever play with my kids or my motherhood or my ex-husband’s fatherhood. We don’t play that shit, my kids live great and have never been touched or hit. No matter how annoying they are, I never hit my kids”.
