Cardi B made a fashionable entrance at Game 5 of the Knicks' playoff series against the 76ers, albeit a bit delayed. The hip hop superstar arrived at Madison Square Garden with just three minutes left in the fourth quarter due to a wardrobe malfunction that caused her top to 'bust out' on the way to the venue.
Despite the mishap, Cardi B handled the situation with grace, quickly changing into a roomy blue shirt and plaid skirt before making her way to her court-side seat. Her husband, Offset, had already taken his place to watch the game from the beginning, while Cardi rushed to join him in time for the final minutes of the match.
Cardi informed arena staff about her delay, ensuring that her late arrival did not disrupt the event. As she hurried into the venue, she explained to onlookers that her tardiness was due to a wardrobe malfunction, which garnered understanding nods from the crowd.
Despite missing most of the game, Cardi and Offset were featured on the TV broadcast during the fourth quarter, adding a touch of celebrity glamour to the event. The Knicks ultimately lost to the Sixers in an overtime 'heartbreaker,' with a final score of 106-112. However, the Knicks maintain a 3-2 lead in the series as they head into Game 6 on Thursday night.
Other notable personalities spotted at the game included Ben Stiller, Sting, Julianne Moore, and Tracee Ellis Ross, adding to the star-studded atmosphere of the playoff matchup. While representatives for Madison Square Garden and Cardi B declined to comment on the incident, the unexpected arrival of the Grammy-winning artist certainly added an element of excitement to the evening.
