Cardi B appeared in court to testify in her libel case against YouTuber Tasha.<\/p>\n

The \u201cWAP\u201d hitmaker claimed she suffered depression and contemplated taking her own life when she discovered vlogger Tasha’s allegedly defamatory comments she made about the rapper on her YouTube channel.<\/p>\n

During a Georgia court hearing, the 29-year-old star said: \u200b”I felt extremely suicidal.”<\/p>\n

The \u201cBodak Yellow\u201d hitmaker added how she suffered from fatigue, anxiety, and migraines, and lost weight as a result.<\/p>\n

The ‘Up’ hitmaker also claimed her relationship with her husband Offset – with whom she has three-year-old daughter Kulture and a four-month-old son – was impacted by the videos made by Tasha over a period of 14 months.<\/p>\n

Cardi claims the clips contain \u201cfalse and defamatory statements\u201d, including that she was a prostitute, had herpes and used drugs.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cI felt defeated and depressed and I didn\u2019t want to sleep with my husband.”<\/p>\n

The hip-hop star filed the lawsuit against Tasha in 2019, alleging that she had \u201cspread malicious rumours, slanderous assertions, and false information about celebrities\u201d to profit from them.<\/p>\n

Cardi is seeking damages and has requested Tasha \u201cremove in full all defamatory and disparaging statements.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Billboard, the jury trial began on Monday in Atlanta and will recommence next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
