Cardi B has come out with a victory in her lawsuit against celebrity blogger Tasha K.
The "Up" rapper was awarded $1.25 million in damages during a trial in a Georgia federal court.
According to reports, Cardi was "elated" after the verdict was read. She was also seen hugging her lawyers in a three-way hug. To break things down, Cardi was awarded $1 million for pain and suffering and another $250,000 for real medical expenses.
Back in 2019, Cardi alleged that blogger Tasha K. led a "campaign of slander" about the rapper including claims that she had herpes, used cocaine, and worked as a prostitute.
Both parties are back in court Tuesday to decide possible punitive damages and attorney fees.
