American actress and rapper, Belcalis Marlenis Cephus, professionally known as Cardi B, has come under fire from her fans following her appearance at Paris Fashion Week.

The music star, who has been embroiled in a public feud with her ex-lover Offset, was seen on the red carpet sporting a dramatic black dress paired with a white cape.

The outfit, which many found provocative, featured an eye-catching chest design that sparked much speculation.

What caught even more attention, however, was the live crow Cardi B held as an accessory.

The bird, clearly uncomfortable, had a rope tied to one of its legs as it struggled to escape, all while Cardi attempted to create a striking impression.

Fans of the rapper, who were previously trolled for her music, shared strong opinions on social media after seeing her red carpet look.

Many condemned her actions as animal abuse, with some criticizing her fashion choice as unclassy. They also pointed out that what she did was potentially illegal and should not be encouraged.

On the other hand, a few fans defended Cardi, praising her boldness for using a live bird instead of a dead one, unlike some of her colleagues who have used animal carcasses in similar fashion stunts.
