Cardi B is never too shy to show off some skin and her curvy body. The petite rapper has made a name for herself in the music industry, is a Grammy winner and now movie star, and is a mom, but she never forgets where she came from. Cardi is open about her beginnings as an exotic dancer, and it's where she learned to have the confidence to show off her body–and rightfully so!
Cardi is tiny, but she has enviable curves, and she shows them off with the outfits she chooses to wear. Even when she is fully covered up, her hourglass figure can be seen from a mile away.
