Cardi B Opened Doors for Doechii? + Sherri Shepherd vs. Nia Long: The Bathroom Showdown

The rap game and the entertainment world are always full of drama, and this week is no exception. From Cardi B allegedly “opening doors” for Doechii to Sherri Shepherd waiting in a bathroom to confront Nia Long, the tea is hot. Let’s get into it.

Culture vs. Cardi’s Birkin Bag

Cardi B recently had a meltdown after her daughter, Kulture, decided to use her $60,000 Birkin bag as a personal art canvas. Cardi shared a video of the purse covered in scribbles, visibly upset over the expensive mishap.

Now, let’s be real—if Cardi can afford to retire off her Whipshots business and Netflix deals, a little marker on a designer bag shouldn’t be that deep. At the end of the day, she’s still making money, and let’s not act like there isn’t someone out there willing to buy a “customized” Birkin by Kulture.

But honestly, it’s a relatable parent moment. Every mom has felt that frustration when their child ruins something valuable. The difference? Most parents aren’t dealing with a $60,000 handbag.

Did Cardi B Open Doors for Doechii?

Doechii is making waves in the industry, with her song Anxiety breaking into the Top 10. Naturally, some Cardi B fans are quick to claim that Cardi paved the way for Doechii’s success.

Let’s be clear—Doechii is a talented rapper with a unique style. She’s been in the game, putting in work, and her inspirations are evident. In fact, Doechii has publicly praised Nicki Minaj and Azealia Banks for influencing her flow. So, the narrative that Cardi B “opened doors” for her? That’s a stretch.

Cardi’s fans argue that she was the last female rapper to win Best Rap Album and go Top 10 before Doechii did. But let’s be real—Cardi’s success came from major industry backing and a carefully crafted rollout. Doechii, on the other hand, is grinding and bringing something fresh to female rap.

Does Cardi B deserve credit for the rise of rappers like Doechii? No. But if we’re talking about the influence of a reality star-turned-rapper on social media and branding, then sure—Cardi has set an example. However, when it comes to lyrical ability and originality, Doechii is carving her own lane.

Sherri Shepherd vs. Nia Long: A Bathroom Brawl?

Now, let’s switch gears to the Sherri Shepherd and Nia Long drama.

Nia Long recently attended a movie premiere, and she posted a picture with the caption “About last night”. This seemingly innocent post turned into speculation that she was shading Sherri Shepherd.

Sherri later revealed that Nia approached her at the event, grabbed her arm, and accused her of shading her. Sherri, taken aback, denied the claim, but Nia walked off, leaving Sherri fuming.

Sherri then admitted that she waited in the bathroom for 15 minutes, ready to confront Nia like it was a high school fight scene. Now, imagine Nia walking in, and Sherri is just standing there like, “So, what’s up?”

This whole situation is wild. Sherri claims she’s a peaceful person but also reminds folks that she’s from Chicago—meaning she’s not one to be played with.

The real question is: What was Nia Long so pressed about? And why did Sherri feel the need to wait in the bathroom like it was a WWE locker room? Either way, this is one of the most random celebrity beefs we’ve seen in a while.

Final Thoughts

      Cardi B’s Birkin bag might be ruined, but let’s not act like she can’t afford another one.

 

      Doechii is talented and does not owe her career to Cardi B. Let’s give her credit where it’s due.

 

    Sherri Shepherd waiting in the bathroom for Nia Long is the type of drama we didn’t expect, but we’re here for it.
