Rapper Cardi B, Shakira, Tyla, Mariah the Scientist, and more performed live at Global Citizen Festival 2025 in Central Park on Saturday, Sept. 27.
Who says a pregnant celebrity can’t perform on tour? Cardi B rocked the stage on the Great Lawn in Central Park. The Bronx rapper performed a medley of her three hit songs while twerking, grinding and dropping it low.
Fans couldn’t get enough of the “Bodak Yellow” rapper, 32, who began her set with her single “Outside”, off her new album Am I the Drama?, which dropped on Friday, September 19.
“Her breath control while pregnant is crazy,” @PopBase wrote on X (Twitter).
“The fetus is the most tired person in the world right now,” another fan wrote.

The hardest working mama in rap brought her 3 kids – Kulture, Wave Set, and Blossom – to the festival where she performed. A babysitter watched the children backstage, but Cardi B takes her kids with her wherever she goes. No abandonment issues there. She doesn’t want her kids growing up to be strippers or gang bangers.
