The feud between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B just turned physical.
On Friday night, the rappers got into a fight at the Harper’s Bazaar ICONS party that left Cardi bruised, a source confirms to PEOPLE. The bash was part of the festivities for New York Fashion Week.
An insider tells PEOPLE that Cardi arrived at the event first. After Nicki showed up, there was an “altercation” on the second-floor balcony during a Christina Aguilera performance.
“The scene was f—— crazy,” the insider tells PEOPLE. “It was entourage against entourage.”
“They had their altercation on the second-floor balcony, right above the red carpet. All of the sudden there was a big commotion and everyone didn’t know what was going on.”
Immediately following the incident, Cardi was escorted out by security while Nicki stayed inside. Cardi was seen leaving the party with a large lump on her forehead but no shoes.
“She left barefoot with her dress ripped and butt out,” source said. Cardi was wearing a red Dolce & Gabbana gown.
Videos of the incident were posted on social media. In one video posted by Twitter user Mihaela, Cardi B can be seen making a lunge towards someone, though it is not entirely clear if it’s the “Barbie Dreams” rapper.
In another video obtained by Cosmopolitan, Cardi can be seen removing her shoe as she repeatedly screams, “I will f— you up!”
Cardi is then seen throwing her shoe before she is dragged away while yelling that people were talking about her daughter.
An NYPD Public Information Officer confirmed that there have been no arrests at this point and officials are
still on the scene, noting that while the “incident itself has ended,
the investigation is still ongoing.”
Representatives for the rappers did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
Cardi later wrote a long scathing Instagram post which she entitled “PERIOD.”
It did not mention Nicki by name, but
suggested she had tried to sabotage Cardi’s career and also spoken badly
about the rapper’s daughter, Kulture Kiari.
“I’ve let a lot of s— slide! I let you sneak diss me, I let you lie on me, I let you attempt to stop my bags, f— up the way I eat! You’ve threaten other artists in the industry, told them if they work with me you’ll stop f—— with them!! I let you talk big s— about me!!” she wrote.
“I addressed you once in person, I addressed you a
second time in person, and every time you copped the plea!! But when you
mention my child, you choose to like comments about me as a mother,
make comments about my abilities to take care of my daughter is when all
bets are f—— off!! I’ve worked to[sic] hard and come too far to let
anybody f— with my success!!!! Bitches talk all that s— in they raps but
in real life they pussy!! This s— really is for entertainment!!”
