Cardi B vows to fight the lawsuit against her and her now-divorced husband Offset. In the lawsuit, the property owner of the mansion used in the music video of her hit single “Like What’ claims she and her estranged husband Offset duped them into using their property for the music video “without paying full market value.”

In response, the Grammy winner has vowed to defend herself against the “greedy owners.”“The problem is people wanna find loopholes and get over but IRON YOUR BEST SUIT BITCH, I’ll see you in court!!!” the Grammy-winning rapper wrote on X.

In her statement on X, Cardi B claimed the property owners were paid $10,000 in cash to use the property for 24 hours “We paid those people $10,000 IN CASH to rent the property for a whole 24 hours that same day 6am to 6am the next morning and we went over by ONE hour which we paid overage fees to the realtor for in March.” She also claimed the owners are trying to get more money from there through legal loopholes: “Now they wanna finesse us trying to say we told them it was a TikTok video when that was nowhere in the contract and like they didn’t hear the whole song playing and see how long we was shooting….Why would it take us 24 hours to shoot a TikTok? The problem is people wanna find loopholes and get over…”

To add to her defence Cardi B claims the owners were on set when the shoot was taking place: “There was cameras all over and both the realtors and the owners was there the ENTIRE time… I got pics and videos of them on set!!

According to the mansion owner’s 11-page complaint, Cardi and Offset had their eyes set on using the property’s highly distinctive design and “devised a plan” to use it “without paying full market value.” The property owner, Bi LLC, alleged the ex-couple reached out through their representatives in late 2023 or early 2024 and booked the house anonymously “under the false pretense” it would be used for a TikTok video. The house was previously home to Justin Bieber.

The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, which included still photographs from the video shoot and noted that the music video produced during the shoot, “Like What,” had garnered more than 26 million views on YouTube since its release six months ago.
