Okur! Chris Rock tried to get Cardi B a comedy show

Okur! Chris Rock tried to get Cardi B a comedy show

Cardi B is

hands down one of the funniest people in music, capturing all with her unique

takes on life and outrageous personality.

Well, it seems the professionals agree with us. Comedian Chris Rock says he once tried to get Cardi B a comedy show. Of course, this was before the Bodak Yellow rapper achieved stardom, but still…that’s pretty big.

Rock, who

was on The Tonight Show Starring JimmyFallon yesterday, said he first saw Cardi when his kids introduced him a toa video of her on the Internet.

“Cardi B I saw on some, like, YouTube thing or whatever.

Again, my kids show me this Cardi B girl, and she didn’t have a record out or

anything,” he said.

Rock continued, “And I was like, ‘OK we should go show it.’

I’m not even gonna say what network but…So I went me, Cardi B and her

management, you know, to kind of like get a show going.”

The idea never panned out, but we can’t say Cardi is any worse off

for it.

The rapper returned with her monster hit WAP featuring Megan Thee Stallion after a brief musical hiatus.

Actor and comedian Chris Rock
