Since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, rapstress Cardi B has made headlines for expressing her concerns.  Chief among said worries is that celebrities are being paid to tell the public they have been infected by the disease – a feat, she argues, only sensationalizes the phenomenon and increases fears among commonfolk.

That’s not all he said.  Look inside for his clap back:

‘My Oh My’ is exactly what Camila Cabello detractors will say once they cop a gander at the latest Billboard Hot 100.

Although the three singles lifted ahead of its arrival failed to impact the chart’s top 40 (‘Shameless,’ ‘Liar,’ and ‘Living Proof’), ‘My’ is living proof good things come to those who wait.  Somewhat of a sleeper hit having first entered the tally a whopping 15 weeks ago, the DaBaby-assisted tune finally cracked the top 20 this week – landing at #18. Granting the latter the fifth trip of his career to that region of the Hot 100, the Frank Dukes-produced bop serves as Cabello’s sixth as a solo act.
