If you're a fan of celebrity drama, then you're in the right place.
Cardi B and Madonna just gave social media another celebrity feud to talk about, and this one started with a post that quickly got people picking sides. What began as Madonna reflecting on how female artists are judged turned into a back-and-forth that pulled in fans, screenshots, and plenty of reactions.

It did not take long for the situation to get messy, and the posts only made the drama louder. Here is how the Cardi B and Madonna beef unfolded.

Here's what she had to say on Instagram about her first meeting with Madonna: "I met my real-life IDOL, Madonna. I can’t even believe I performed at her event, and it was the most meaningful performance ever. I grew up with my mom listening to Madonna for hours.
I performed 'Material Girl' my freshman year in high school, listened to her during all my photo shoots to gain super confidence, and always mentioned her in my interviews.
The best part about it is she was everything I thought she would be: a liberal, kick-ass feminist. I’m so happy."
