Cardi B revealed her secret about stuffing her jeans when she was a teenager. The rapper shared her insecurities growing up and explained how her confidence has changed over the years.
Cardi B said she stuffed her jeans as a teen because she felt insecure about her body
Cardi B recently appeared in Old Navy’s fall denim campaign. The rapper spoke exclusively to People, reflecting on her teenage insecurities. She said, “What is my life without jeans? I still shop at Old Navy. I think it’s very long lasting.”
Cardi B now wears jeans regularly, but it was not always the case. She felt insecure during her teenage years when skinny jeans were extremely popular.
She said, “When I was like a teenager, that used to be something I was really insecure about — so I used to stuff my jeans. I would put like two, three tights under my jeans so my butt and my thighs could be thicker. Being from the hood or, you know, my culture, being thick is better. I always was scared for my butt to look extra flat in jeans.”
She appeared in Old Navy’s recent campaign on the “It’s Old Navy” series that was launched by Paris Hilton. The series features High-Rise Wide Leg, Baggy Barrel, and Low-Rise Baggy jeans. She was seen wearing several denim styles in the campaign video.
While talking about her style, Cardi B said she often dresses depending on the occasion. However, she described her personal style as “sexy and comfortable.”
“I like wearing a nice tight shirt on top with a little bit of cleavage, with some long pants, sweats or jeans. That’s really my style. Sexy up here, really cool and chill in the bottom. That’s really my thing,” she added.
Her latest campaign reflects how her relationship with denim has evolved over the years.
