It is an unusual performance given by the American singer Cardi B, since she pushed the song on a Parisian sidewalk. The 30-year-old young woman attended the Thom Browne mixed fashion show at the Opéra Garnier on Monday July 3. On leaving, she posed for the paparazzi before taking a few selfies with fans. Then, as she was about to get into the car, a street musician stopped her, offering to sing at the microphone.
Accompanied on the guitar by the musician, Cardi B started I will always love you by Whitney Houston. But the singer, filmed by the American site TMZ, quickly stopped, not going as far as the famous refrain before giggling with her singular laugh.
Cardi B, a former stripper from the Bronx, was discovered thanks to videos that have gone viral on social networks. In 2017, she released Bodak Yellow and Like It, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. His tube Wap in collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion becomes a worldwide success. Performed on the stage of the 2021 Grammy Awards by the two singers, it provoked a wave of criticism and complaints from viewers and elected Republicans, whom they considered indecent and provocative.
