The ‘Bodak Yellow’ hitmaker, who worked as a stripper before finding success in the music business, wrote on Twitter: “My biggest flaw is not bragging enough.”
Cardi, who has Kulture, four, and Wave, 16 months, with rap star Offset, subsequently posted a photograph of her younger sister, Hennessy, in two revealing outfits.
The images divided opinion among Cardi’s social media followers – but the chart-topping star quickly fired back at the critics.
Meanwhile, Cardi previously admitted to being happier before she became famous.
The ‘WAP’ hitmaker, who married Offset in 2017, no longer worries about her financial situation, but Cardi insisted she felt happier “two or three years ago.”
She said: “One positive thing is that, my family, whatever they want, they get. Everything that I want to buy, I can get. I don’t have to worry so much about my future.
“One negative thing is that, even though I’m happy, I feel like I was a little bit happier two or three years ago when I had less money.
“I had less people who had opinions about my life. I felt like my life was mine.
“Now I feel like I don’t even own my life. I feel like the world owns me.”
