Cardi B Is A Modern-Day Princess In PEOPLE En Español December/January Cover

PEOPLE En Español (PESP) – the sister brand to PEOPLE Magazine and the top-selling Hispanic magazine in the U.S. – names global rap superstar Cardi B its ‘Star of The Year’ for the December/January cover.

In the cover story, Cardi B honours her Latin roots as she reflects an explosive year that yielded her greatest treasure – daughter Kulture Kiari with Migos rapper Offset.

The Bodak Yellow rapper says that motherhood is her biggest achievement.

“It’s my proudest and my happiest [achievement being a mom]…When you’re famous, so many things are being thrown at you: so many gossips, so many problems, so many beefs, so much money, so much of everything, it just kind of drives you crazy. And then when I see my daughter, it’s like a piece of mind. [I say:] ‘Ahh, I do this because of you.’ It cracks a smile on the most stressful days.”

A lot of people see her as a loud but funny person. She opines that while that is true, she is “also a very calm person. I’m a true Libra. I could be the loudest person, but I could be the quietest person, the most shy person. I’m a big loner; I prefer to be by myself. I need alone time, I overthink.”

The Bodak Yellow queen wants all the money but is keen on stability.

“I’m not a gambler, I think about 15 years from now, I don’t think about now.” And she adds, playfully: “I like MO-NEY. Ten years from now, there’s always gonna be somebody better, that everybody’s gonna be like, ‘That’s the best lyrical person ever.’ Ten years from now, I’m still gonna have money from a hit that I made.”

The issue hits newsstands this Friday, November 2.
