What happened as Cardi B went on stage
Cardi B went on stage to loud cheers from the audience but paused for a few seconds, looking at the teleprompter. She then started to remove her gloves and said, “One second guys. One second!” Again pausing for a few awkward seconds on stage, she managed to say, "OK. So I don't take lightly the call,” Cardi B tried speaking again, continuing, “I'm sorry guys, I'm a little nervous. I'm a little nervous guys, I've been waiting for this moment this whole life, my whole life.”
She then started to look around, seemingly to signal her team for assistance. She went on respond to the audience, “I need patience over here, patience where are you girl? I need patience over here!” She shouted repeatedly, "Are we ready to make history?” Finally a woman from her team handed her the phone, from which she started to make her speech.
What Cardi B said
Cardi B then said she was not planning on voting this year before Harris joined the presidential race. Before President Joe Biden stepped down as the presidential nominee, Cardi had announced that she would not vote in the upcoming elections and criticised the current administration for sending aid to as she described “fund two wars.”

I believe in every word that comes out of her mouth; she’s passionate, she’s compassionate, she shows empathy, and most of all, she is not delusional.”
