“Only an evil person could do that s–t,” the rapper said. Cardi said she felt the lowest she ever did after seeing the videos. She said the videos published messed with her emotionally and screwed up her sex life with husband Offset.
She also described having to deal with trolls commenting on a photo of her kissing her daughter Kulture. Cardi said people left comments asking if she should be kissing her kid if she had Herpes. She believes the remarks were a direct result of Tasha’s videos.
Cardi said she ended up seeking out professional help from a therapist. As we first reported, the judge in the case ordered Cardi’s medical records to be turned over prior to the trial. The results showed the rapper did not have Herpes — something she also testified to on the stand.
