“Taking This Out”: Cardi B Vows Final Butt Reduction Following ‘Little Miss Drama’ Tour
LOS ANGELES — The era of the "BBL" might officially be coming to an end for the Bronx’s finest. During a high-energy stop on her Little Miss Drama Tour in Los Angeles this past weekend, Cardi B gave fans a surprising update on her post-tour plans: she’s heading back to the surgeon, but this time, it's for a reduction.
The candid admission came during an exchange with fellow artist Kehlani, who was caught on video praising Cardi’s physique. “After this tour, I’m taking some out,” Cardi responded to the crowd's roar. “I don’t want to hear nobody for three months. I’m going to Colombia... I’m taking this [behind] out.”
The Road to "Natural"
This isn't the first time the Grammy winner has been vocal about her complicated relationship with cosmetic surgery. After revealing in late 2022 that she had removed 95% of her biopolymer injections (often referred to as "ass shots"), Cardi has become an accidental advocate for the "natural" movement within hip-hop.
In a September 2025 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the 33-year-old mother of four detailed the harrowing recovery process of her previous reduction, which left her bedridden for three months. Despite the pain, she told fans that the decision was about health and personal comfort rather than conforming to trends.
Touring Through the Drama
The announcement comes as the Little Miss Drama Tour—Cardi’s first full arena trek since giving birth to her fourth child with NFL star Stefon Diggs, lives up to its name. The tour has been a whirlwind of viral moments, including:
-
The "Government" Fall: During a 13th February show in Las Vegas, Cardi tumbled off a chair during her "Thotiana" remix. She quickly joked to the crowd that "the government" caused the trip, a playful nod to her recent public spat with Homeland Security over her comments regarding ICE agents.
-
The Diggs Split: Just days ago, Cardi utilized her L.A. stage to officially confirm her breakup with Stefon Diggs, while simultaneously defending him against a diss from rapper BIA.
The Post-Tour Disappearance
The rapper made it clear that once the tour wraps its final two-night stint in Atlanta on 17th and 18th April, she plans to go completely off the grid.
“Nobody hit me up, nobody nothing,” she warned fans. “I need my time.”
Industry insiders suggest the move is part of a larger "creative reset" for Cardi, who is also preparing to launch her highly anticipated hair care brand, Grow Good Beauty, and finally drop her long-awaited sophomore album later this year.
By opting for further surgery to reduce her signature curves, Cardi B is signaling a definitive shift in her "Am I the Drama?" era—one where her health and personal autonomy take precedence over her public image.
