Paris might be known as the “City of Love,” but it seems like Offset’s relationship with some of its residents got off to a rocky start as he found himself in a brouhaha during a recent visit to the home of the Eiffel Tower.
According to TMZ, Offset and his entourage found themselves in a wild street brawl with French rapper, Gazo, and his crew outside of Hôtel du Collectionneur (sounds like a hotel in a John Wick movie or something). The incident unfolded Wednesday night (Nov. 13) after the two crews got into a dispute over a music video shoot that Offset was paid to do for Gazo and company. Feeling like the former Migos rapper failed to meet their requirements due to his “laziness,” Gazo wanted a refund on the $150,000 he paid Offset for his appearance. Needless to say, the “Clout” rapper was having none of that.
After confronting Offset and his crew in front of Hôtel du Collectionneur, fists were thrown and Offset was even able to land a kick to someone’s head as his security team did their best to refrain him from participating in the sidewalk brawl.
TMZ reports:
The 2 sides began to brawl so hard in the Paris streets … one guy managed to land a swift roundhouse kick to the back of one of Offset’s guy’s head, which angered the rapper.
The guard was preventing him from jumping into the fight to even the odds!!!
The confusion even led to Offset’s crew fighting each other at one point — but Offset wouldn’t give up.
He managed to break free and whack one of his French opps with a designer boot kick to the head — before the guard rushed him back into the hotel.
The French rappers weren’t quitters either and bum-rushed the door, attempting to pull Offset out. A woman ended up taking a scary fall on the pavement when she fought off the attackers.
We’re not sure if that woman was a video model or part of anyone’s crew, but what we do know is that she was a ride or die chick for someone out there. Respect, shorty.
Eventually, police arrived on the scene and though no one was taken into custody, Gazo ultimately shared a pic of himself kicking it with Offset to promote their upcoming collaboration, “Wemby.” If he didn’t get his money back he might as well get his money’s worth and promote their collabo regardless, right?

The relationship between Offset and Cardi B has been all over the place as of late and though the two are going through a divorce, Cardi just gave birth to the couple’s third child. But it seems like she might’ve done some dirt while impregnated with Offset’s bun in her oven.
According to Page Six, Cardi took to Instagram Live on Wednesday (Sept. 25) to go off on her estranged husband, Offset. While doing her live she claimed that Offset was threatening to take back all of the lavish gifts he blessed her with during their union.
“I find it funny that n—as think that they can f—k on anything, but when I start talking to n—as, you want to threaten me with taking s—t that I f—king worked my ass off for. You want to play those games with me? We gon’ play them games too.”
She added, “You want to take my s—t because I’m moving on? Move on. Why can’t you move on?”
Not one to keep his Twitter fingers idle, Offset jumped in the comments and blew everyone’s mind away with a low-key disturbing accusation.
Per Page Six:
Amid their ongoing divorce, the “Clout” rapper took to the comments of his estranged wife’s Instagram Live on Wednesday to accuse her of sleeping with someone else while she was pregnant.
“U f–ked with a baby inside, tell the truth!!” he wrote, per a screenshot from the recording, which was shared on X.
Not long after, Cardi seemingly confirmed the accusation on her X account, posting, “AND DID !!!!!!”
It’s unclear when the alleged hookup took place, but the “Money” hitmaker filed for divorce from the former Migos rapper in July.
Well, can’t say we saw that one coming!
AND DID !!!!!!

While we don’t blame Cardi for moving on with her life and entertaining other men after her separation, sleeping with another man, allegedly, while having your ex’s seed growing inside of you is kind of out there. On the flip side, Offset has been accused of cheating on Cardi multiple times during their marriage, so we can’t be out here judging people. To each their own, right?
Needless to say, the divorce proceedings in this case have the potential to get very ugly and best believe social media will be right there willing and waiting to get into the nitty gritty of every detail and magnify it by a thousand on X, Facebook, Instagram and maybe even Donald Trump’s struggle social media website too.

Grand opening, grand close. Cardi B has reportedly filed for divorce from her husband, Migos rapper Offset, again.
The couple’s relationship has long been considered tumultuous at best thanks ever present rumors of infidelity, so social media is having a field day at the news, and the circumstances.
Page Six reports that the Bronx rapper’s decision to call it quits was confirmed by her rep. Reportedly, they tried to work things out at the top of the year, but they couldn’t get to a better place in their relationship, allegedly. A source claims that the latest rumors of Offset cheating is not what sparked the divorce.
“They’ve grown apart. That’s what drove her to this decision more than anything else,” the source told Page Six. “This is something she wants to do.”
Cardi is reportedly seeking primary custody of their two children, daughter, Kulture, 5, and a son, Wave, 2. Recently, the Bronx was spotted in New York City, hiding what looks like a prominent baby bump. However, she has yet to confirm if she is pregnant.
Although the couple was married in September 2017, since then they have separated multiple times (she filed for divorce in 2020, but it didn’t take), with their spats often being made public, usually by themselves. In late 2023 she shared that she was “single for a minute” but they were spotted out on a date since.
If there’s one thing social media always goes up for, it’s Cardi B and Offset drama, and today’s divorce revelation is no different. Peep some of the crazier reactions (the Offset slander is…intense) in the gallery.

Over the past few years, swatting has become the method of choice for MAGA cult members who look to criminally harass anyone who criticizes or in any way opposes their past, present and future king, Donald Trump.
More recent victims include Judge Tanya Chutken and Special Counsel Jack Smith, who are both involved in court cases against the Insurrectionist-In-Chief, but apparently Cardi B and Offset too were swatted last summer after someone called authorities and falsely reported an incident at their property. According to TMZ, a hater called police claiming that shots had been fired at the home that then happily wed Cardi B and Offset shared in Georgia.
Like with any other swatting incident, police took the matter seriously and rolled up to the rappers’ home ready for any kind of standoff or shootout that might’ve unfolded on the property.
Per TMZ:
One officer notes in the police report that a caller claimed someone fired a shot at a “famous rapper’s house” and even suggested Cardi herself may have been hit with a bullet … so cops came with lights and sirens, and with their firearms drawn.
Fortunately … cops say the call turned out to be BS — something officers discovered when they arrived at the property and talked to Offset’s uncle, Derrick Cephus, who said he was house-sitting. Yep, it sounds like Cardi and Offset weren’t even home for this swatting attempt …. just a confused relative!
After some back-and-forth, said relative calls up an audibly upset Offset, who was annoyed that such a situation had unfolded. Luckily, no one was hurt during the encounter.
As to why anyone would decide to swat Cardi B and Offset is anyone’s guess. Though she has been a vocal critic of Donald Trump in the past, she hasn’t touched on Cheeto Jesus in quite some time. We guess people out there just had nothing better to do than dwell on some old sh*t.

Weeks after Cardi B and Offset had social media buzzing about their separation, the Bronx rapper and ATLien were seen ringing in the New Year together, and once again, seemingly on the road to reconciliation.
Still, that doesn’t mean the two are actually getting back together. According to TMZ, they have no plans to repair the relationship anytime soon, if ever. Though the two were spotted at a strip club in Miami, popping bottles and making it rain on the talent in attendance, the two simply turnt up for old time’s sake and even got busy afterwards. But they aren’t too keen on actually getting back together.
Taking to social media, Cardi admitted to creating the beast with two backs with her “ex” hubby but didn’t say they were officially working things out.
Relationships in 2023, right?
Though many feel this is just the first step to reconciliation, it doesn’t seem like that is actually the case. At least not yet.
TMZ reports:
In fact, Cardi has a message for folks thinking she’s back with Offset … “we not together.. we together when I say so not when you THINK so.”
Thing is … Cardi and Offset were both in Miami for work … they each had NYE gigs at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach – Offset performed at LIV and Cardi poolside – making this rendezvous pretty easy.
Naturally, fans were astonished at the unforeseen developments and took to social media to chime in on Cardi’s latest curveball. But that didn’t seem to bother the Grammy Award-winning rapper, who had a message for everyone on her X page.
If we’ve learned one thing about Cardi B, it’s that she’s going to do what she wants, when she wants and with who she wants, regardless of how anyone feels.

It seems Cardi B and Offset are in a really bad place. She recently went off on social media and said he did her wrong.
The Bronx bombshell recently went on Instagram Live to vent and did not hold anything back. Even though she didn’t show her face, the “Bongos” rapper was clearly upset as she was trying her best to hold back tears. “This motherf****er really likes to play games with me at my most vulnerable time. When I’m not the most confident,” she revealed. “He likes to play games with me because he knows that I’m not an easy girl.”
She would go on to allege that the Migos front man has not been honoring his marital vows. “You’ve really been feeling yourself… because of your bi*** a** album and sh*t. And you really been doing me dirty after so many f****ing years that I motherf***ing helped your a**,” she added. “Not even a f***ing thank you that I got from your bi*** a**.” Cardi added, “And it’s so crazy that I have to go to the f***ing internet because whenever I tell you something you don’t say sh*t to me and I’m so tired of it.”
Last week, Bardi confirmed the rumors that two have split up. “I’ve been single for a minute now. But I have been afraid… Not afraid, I just don’t know how to tell the world. But I feel like today has been, like, a sign” she stated. “I don’t know if you guys have been getting clues from me, from my Lives, or from my Stories, when I put some certain music, or find my unfollowings.”
Offset has yet to comment on the matter. You can watch Cardi B’s Live below.

Love is dead, long live love. Cardi B has confirmed that she is single—and X is in shambles.
Speculation started that the Bronx rapper and her husband, Migos rapper Offset, were on shaky terms, once again, when they unfollowed each other on social media. Then during a recent Instagram live she confirmed that she’s properly single.
“I’ve been single for a minute now,” she said during the Live. “But I have been afraid to like—not afraid I just don’t know how to tell the world. But I feel like today has been a sign. The last time I got on Live I kind of wanted to tell you guys, but I didn’t know how to tell you, so I changed my mind. But it has been like this for a minute now. I just took it as a sign.”

Could there be trouble in the paradise that Cardi B and Offset have built for themselves over the last few years?
We don’t know, but whenever a couple unfollows each other on social media, that’s never a good sign. According to TMZ, in the wee hours between Monday (Dec. 4) and Tuesday (Dec. 5), both Cardi and Offset have removed themselves from each other’s Instagram pages while Cardi B posted about looking out for numero uno (herself) in her IG Stories.
TMZ reports:
She writes, “I’m tired of protecting peoples feelings…I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST.”
Offset, meanwhile, also appears to be referring to problems in their dynamic — posting a famous clip from “Scarface” where Tony Montana is yelling at his old friend about being the one who put their operation together and being responsible for their success.
There’s nothing really beyond that … but their respective posting is telling in and of itself, although it’s unclear what the latest issue between them might be. There’s always something.
Not for nothing, but it’s always something between these two, respectfully. Whether it’s rumors that someone was unfaithful to the other or they just shower each other with ridiculously lavish gifts, these two know how to get people talking about their business. However, unfollowing each other is definitely a big thing in the age of social media. For many, that’s a sure sign that things are officially a wrap, allegedly.
Still, their marriage has survived all kinds of ups and downs during their six years of wedded bliss, so who’s to say this isn’t just another bump in the road that these two have traveled together while making that cream? Don’t be surprised if the two reconcile before the week is out and drop another collaborative cut by the weekend. That’s just how they do.

Social media knows that Offset and Cardi B have a history of showering each other with lavish gifts for the heck of it. So y’all already knew that when Cardi’s birthday came around, Offset was going to go all out as he has no problem splurging on his wife/baby mama.
According to Page Six, Offset broke his piggy bank and blessed Cardi B with a half a million dollars worth of Hermès bags for her 31st birthday this past Wednesday (October 11) and while that may sound like a bunch of purses, it was actually only three. Yes, three Birkin bags damn near totaled $500,000. That’s when you know you ballin’ outta control.
Still, the couple could afford it as they’re both very successful in their careers and while it may seem like a bit much for three accessories that can easily be lost at a venue or on a plane, Cardi ain’t complaining.
Per Page Six:
Cardi B squealed as she opened the first, which contained a hot pink crocodile Kelly bag; a similar style recently sold for close to $92,000 on 1stdibs.
But her next purse blew the first out of the water.
As she shimmied to the strains of Madonna’s “Vogue,” Cardi unboxed an extremely rare Faubourg Birkin — often called the “House Birkin,” as it’s modeled after Hermès’ Paris storefront on the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré.
One of the purses is currently listed on 1stdibs for a staggering $298,975.
“My favorite!” Cardi screamed upon unwrapping the unique carryall, joking, “I don’t even think I’m ready to see the other one.”
Offset suggested she “take a shot” before opening her last box, which housed a glossy gold-colored crocodile Birkin.
A similar version sold at a Christie’s auction in 2020 for $72,000, bringing the total value of Cardi’s birthday gifts to approximately $462,975.
Most people won’t ever touch a Hermès bag nor ever see $400K, but for Offset and Cardi B it was just another night at the Delilah in West Hollywood.

Jemele Hill has emerged as one of the more outspoken sports journalists and public figures of her era, using her massive platform to express thoughts that are often met with pushback. Hill once more sounded off in her unique way, criticizing Offset for sitting down with Bobbi Althoff for an interview.
Via X, formerly known as Twitter, Jemele Hill fired a shot at Offset for appearing on an upcoming episode of The Really Good Podcast with Bobbi Althoff. Some might remember the podcast for a viral interview with Drake as he and Althoff have a conversation in bed while the Canadian superstar sips wine.
I don’t find these types of interviews particularly enjoyable or interesting,” began Hill’s critique on X. “Instead it just sadly points out how real hip hop journalism has been practically erased. Some of the media teams behind these artists aren’t interested in them sitting down with credible people who know how to tell stories and do quality interviews. Then they wonder why an artist’s real story goes untold, neglected or that artist is misunderstood.”
In a new viral clip, Offset is seen matching wits with the typically deadpan and sarcastic Althoff and not letting her humor get the best of him. Further, Althoff’s attempt to embarrass her guest backfires as the Migos star deftly dodges and parries with his own shots.
Hill’s missive is not unlike one made by veteran Hip-Hop journalist Elliott Wilson, who made similar comments about Drake sitting down with Althoff in lieu of Black media outlets that actually know and care about his story.
Wilson previously interviewed the OVO honcho on his show, Rap Radar. Wilson also clarified that he wasn’t miffed Drake wouldn’t sit down for a second time but wondered aloud why a star of Drake’s magnitude would, in his words, “speak to us again” in a reference to Black music media.
Hill just wrapped season four of her original Spotify podcast Jemele Hill Is Unbothered this past July.
