Just days before the Super Bowl, Cardi B is making headlines—not for new music or Offset-related drama, but for stepping out with NFL star Stefon Diggs.

The speculation, fueled by DJ Akademiks on his Rumble channel, alleged that Cardi had been romantically involved with the Buffalo Bills wide receiver while still with Offset. In response, Cardi went live on X, shutting down the claims as “crazy” and completely unfounded. Yet, despite her firm denial, the chatter never truly faded.
Now, those rumors are heating up again. On the night of February 6, Cardi and Diggs were spotted together in New Orleans, captured on video smiling, chatting, and appearing closer than just friends. The sighting has reignited speculation, leaving fans questioning whether there's more to the story than Cardi has let on.

Many of Megan’s fans, known as the Hotties, see this as a betrayal, despite Cardi insisting she’s staying neutral. With tensions rising and fresh footage of her and Diggs making waves, Cardi has once again landed at the center of a social media firestorm.
Stefon Diggs Rumors and Fan Reactions
Cardi B’s recent outing with Diggs has sparked a wide range of reactions from fans, spanning enthusiastic support, rampant speculation, and sharp criticism. Her loyal supporters—among the most vocal in pop culture—are quick to defend her, arguing that she has every right to befriend or go out with whomever she pleases and that the surrounding gossip is overblown.

Meanwhile, Megan Thee Stallion’s fans, already upset over Cardi’s collaboration with Pardison Fontaine—especially after his diss toward Megan—view this as a double betrayal and aren’t staying quiet about it
