Rapper Cardi B agreed to a plea deal and was sentenced to 15 days of community service Thursday for her role in a 2018 strip club fight in New York City.
The rapper, whose legal name is Belcalis Almanzar, pleaded guilty to third-degree assault and second-degree reckless endangerment before a court in Queens on Thursday.
“Part of growing up and maturing is being accountable for your actions,” Almanzar said in a statement to the Associated Press.
The charges come from a fight at the Angels Gentlemen’s Club on Aug. 30, 2018, after Almanzar reportedly accused a bartender of having an affair with her husband, leading to a fight that saw bottles, hookah pipes, and chairs tossed.
Almanzar shared photos from her day in court on Twitter with the caption “Puuuurrrrrr.”
Almanzar, a native of the Big Apple, helped cover the burial costs for victims of a fire in the Bronx earlier this year.
