American rapper, songwriter, and actress Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, known professionally as Cardi B, has posted an apology on Sunday for a series of tweets made over Thanksgiving.

AllNews gathered that the apology came after Cardi B came under fire for hosting a birthday party in Las Vegas, with the guests showing little regard for face masks and social distancing rules.

The rapper was branded 'irresponsible' by fans after she shared a photo of her face planted in a huge crowd of party-goers during her 28th birthday celebrations on Saturday.

Cardi B started with an innocuous post about enjoying the holiday in which she wrote, "Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Enjoy your family & friends and the turkey legs" amid LOL re-posts about hilarious "WAP"s giving videos.
