Really! Cardi B ‘too shy’ to ask male artists to collaborate with her

The ‘WAP’ hitmaker – who has appeared on song with the likes of Bruno Mars and Maroon 5 – has admitted she doesn’t have the nerve to ask some of her favourite male counterparts to jump on a track with her because she get’s “star-struck” easily and fears she will sound “corny”.

Speaking to Billboard before she was crowned Billboard Woman of the Year, she admitted: “When female artists are rising, you don’t have to put one down because the others are rising. Every single time a female rapper comes out, people wanna start fake beef. Maybe because they don’t see me [with other women] as often as people want to. The thing is, I’m shy — and really shy to reach out to male artists, to be honest with you. That’s why a lot of collabs that I want, I haven’t gotten yet because I’m scared to reach out. I always get a little star-struck. I be thinking I’m corny, even though I’m funny.”

The 28-year-old rapper – who has two-year-old daughter Kulture with husband Offset – also admitted she gets embarrassed when she sings songs that show off her “lovey-dovey side”. Musicnews
