Cardi B Shocks With Live Bird At Bold Schiaparelli Show For Paris Fashion Week

Cardi B’s latest fashion statement (nearly) took flight! The rap superstar brought an unexpected plus one to the Schiaparelli show at Paris Fashion Week on July 7, holding a live bird as she posed for photos outside the event. The surprising accessory appeared to follow an A-list theme, as Dua Lipa also arrived in a chic, avian-inspired ensemble, but Cardi’s bold statement served as a nod to her anticipated new music, too. Cardi’s sophomore album “Am I the Drama” is due out in September and a sneak peek at the cover shows the hip-hop queen surrounded by raven-like feathered friends. Though a video preview for the LP depicts a flock of birds chasing Cardi in a Hitchcockian fashion, she was quick to clarify that her Paris Fashion Week pal was a friendly one. “No, I’m not scared of the bird. That’s my friend,” she told Women’s Wear Daily. “I control him. We’re best friends.”
