In a captivating Halloween transformation, Cardi B, the Grammy-winning rapper and social media sensation, turned heads as a sultry Jessica Rabbit in New York City. Dressed in red satin and channeling the iconic cartoon character from the 1988 film Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Cardi dazzled fans and photographers alike at the Doux Supper Club. The occasion? A Halloween bash hosted by her sister Hennessy and friend T Styles, and it seems Cardi used the opportunity to remind her soon-to-be ex-husband, Offset, just what he’s missing.

A Look That Brought Jessica Rabbit to Life
Cardi B’s Halloween look featured a daring red satin gown with a corseted bodice that barely covered her and hugged her curves in all the right places. The bodice plunged low, amplifying her signature style, while a thigh-high slit completed the bold look. Cardi paired the ensemble with long purple gloves, echoing Jessica Rabbit’s original style and adding a touch of old Hollywood glamour. Her makeup featured purple eye shadow and a striking red lip, while her red hair flowed down in luxurious curls, completing the transformation. She accessorized with diamond earrings, lending a glitzy finish to her costume that left fans breathless.
Putting Drama with Offset Aside
This year, Cardi’s Halloween outing felt especially significant. She has been embroiled in a very public and contentious split from Offset. Their relationship, filled with ups and downs, took a serious hit when Cardi filed for divorce in July after nearly seven years of marriage. Since then, the “Bodak Yellow” artist hasn’t shied away from expressing her frustration on social media. On October 22, Cardi shared an expletive-filled rant targeting Offset, calling him a “garbage bag” and “a narcissistic piece of s**t” after a series of heated exchanges. The rant was deleted from X (formerly known as Twitter), but not before fans and media took notice, marking another chapter in the turbulent relationship.

Despite the divorce proceedings and the stress they entail, Cardi appeared to be in high spirits at the Halloween party. Videos shared on her Instagram show her dancing in her Jessica Rabbit outfit, moving to a suggestive hip-hop track. Her confidence and sense of humor seemed intact, and she appeared to be enjoying a much-needed night of fun.
Recent Health Scare and Performance Cancellation
Leading up to Halloween, Cardi’s health had been a point of concern. The star had to cancel her performance at the ONE MusicFest due to an illness that reportedly required hospitalization. The cancellation disappointed fans, but her quick recovery reassured them. Her appearance at the Doux Supper Club suggested that she was well on her way back to full health, as she greeted fans and made her way into the event with her usual vivacious energy.

Motherhood Under Fire: Cardi Responds to CPS Incident
While Cardi B’s Halloween appearance signaled a night of escapism, the rapper has been facing challenges beyond her divorce. Recently, an anonymous prank caller accused her of harming her children, resulting in Child Protective Services (CPS) showing up at her home. Cardi didn’t hold back when addressing the incident, which she felt was not only false but also a grave violation of her family’s privacy. In an Instagram Live video, she blasted the caller and defended her parenting, saying, “We don’t play that st. My kids live great. My kids have never been touched, never gotten hit no matter how annoying they are. Don’t you ever in your fking life play with my motherhood or my ex-husband’s fatherhood.”
The rapper emphasized that her family, especially her children, are off-limits to any kind of public scrutiny or baseless allegations. “We’re the only colored people in my neighborhood, completely, and for motherfers to pop up in my house with cops and child protective services because you motherfers wanna do an anonymous call involving my children,” she added, clearly frustrated by the intrusion.
Cardi’s Plans Beyond Halloween
Beyond the Halloween party and family drama, Cardi has maintained a packed schedule. The rapper was slated to speak at a rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on the Friday after Halloween, supporting Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of the November 5 election. The rally, which featured musical guests like DJ Gemini Gilly, Flo Milli, Glorilla, The Isley Brothers, and MC Lyte, marked a return to her social activism. Cardi has often been outspoken about political and social issues, making her presence at the rally particularly anticipated. Despite personal and public hardships, her commitment to using her platform for activism remains evident.
A Roller-Coaster of a Year
This Halloween appearance marks yet another chapter in what has been a tumultuous year for Cardi B. From her divorce from Offset to public spats on social media and personal health scares, she has faced a challenging year with remarkable resilience. Her transformation into Jessica Rabbit, known for her sultry style and famous catchphrase, “I’m not bad, I’m just drawn that way,” seemed fitting for the rapper’s unapologetic and charismatic personality.
The divorce proceedings with Offset continue, with the two sharing three children—Kulture, six, Wave, two, and their youngest, born just this September. While both parents have committed to co-parenting, the recent drama and Cardi’s public frustrations suggest the path forward may not be an easy one. Offset, too, has faced backlash in the wake of their separation, with Cardi’s fans rallying around her in support.
Social Media Reacts to Cardi’s Look and Message
Cardi’s Jessica Rabbit transformation, coupled with her ongoing marital drama, has dominated social media discussions. Fans were quick to praise her for “living her best life” despite the challenges, with many seeing her costume as a playful but powerful message to Offset. One user commented, “Cardi serving Jessica Rabbit realness is everything! She’s showing Offset what he’s lost,” while another wrote, “No one does Halloween like Cardi B – and she did it with all the drama and glamour!”

Cardi B’s Halloween appearance as Jessica Rabbit was not just a costume—it was a statement.
