Cardi B recently delighted fans by revealing the contents of her oversized Chanel purse, showcasing her preparedness for any situation.
Two days after being spotted with the comically large silver bag at Disneyland Paris alongside her husband Offset and their children, Cardi responded to a curious fan who asked what she kept “in the big ass purse.” In a photo posted on Wednesday, the Grammy-winning rapper displayed the items she typically carries, emphasizing they were nothing “special.”
Inside the designer travel tote, which can retail for over $12,000 in similar styles on the resale market, were essentials like a bottle of Excedrin, a bar of Dove soap, Native deodorant with a Girl Scout cookie scent, a St. Ives spray, nasal mist, and more.
Social media users humorously commented that Cardi B was a “prepared mother” with a “whole Target up in there,” jokingly likening the contents to a supermarket or a clinic.
This isn’t the first time Cardi has shown the vast array of items she carries. Last year, she made headlines by emptying her red Hermès bag to reveal necessities such as baby powder, wet wipes, Vaseline, asthma medication, cough drops, and a toothbrush.
In an interview with Vogue Mexico in August 2023, Cardi explained her need for a large bag, attributing it to having two children—daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2—and her own personal requirements. She humorously mentioned wanting to put Offset in the purse and “lock him in there,” adding to the playful narrative of her preparedness and style.
