A video of the Dalai Lama kissing a boy on the mouth recently went viral on social media. He then asks the eight-year-old to suck his tongue. Now rapper Cardi B commented on it.
Belcalis Marlenis Almanzar, Cardi B’s real name, found clear words about the Dalai Lama video: “This world is full of thieves (in the English-language original, people who prey on minors are referred to as “predators”.). They hunt the innocent. Those who are most ignorant, our children,” the 30-year-old wrote on Twitter. “These thieves could be our neighbors, our teachers, even people with money and power and our churches,” she continued. Cardi B advised all parents to constantly talk to their kids about “boundaries and everything they shouldn’t allow other people to do to them.”
This world is full of predators. They prey on the innocent. The ones who are most ignorant, our children. Predators could be our neighbors, our school teachers, even people wit money ,power & our churches. Constantly talk with your kids about boundaries and what they shouldn’t…

After the “WAP” rapper made her statement public, news about her own tumultuous past flooded her inbox. Cardi B admitted in 2019 to drugging and robbing men who wanted to sleep with her. At that time she was still working as a dancer. But her past is no reason for her not to condemn offenses against children to the extreme. She has the right to talk about it because she has children herself, she continues to write on Twitter.
Some time after her original tweet, Cardi B thanked everyone for all the support she’s received on Twitter. It was an affair of the heart for her to write about this topic.
