You could hardly talk about Cardi B without the thoughts of ‘Drama’ and the American rapper took things to greater heights last night when she hosted the 2021 American Music Awards. The show took place in Los Angeles with a star-studded line-up of performances which included Olivia Rodrigo, Carrie Underwood with Jason Aldean, BTS with Coldplay, Silk Sonic, and many more.
As her first hosting gig, the expectation was high and Cardi delivered, not only as the show emcee but sartorially. She basically turned the 2021 AMAs into her own epic fashion show with eight different outfit changes. The mother-of-two first arrived at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles in a head-to-toe look by Schiaparelli that consisted of a black gown, a black veil, a dramatic gold mask, gold earrings, and matching gloves.
