Cardi B, a.k.a. Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, was indicted in Queens, New York, yesterday on felony charges in connection to a bar fight that went down inside a NYC strip club last August. The Bronx rapper is looking at 14 criminal charges – two of them felonies – related to that brawl. She reportedly went after two sisters tending bar at the strip club; and she thought one of the girls was having an affair with her husband, Offset, according to NBC News.
