On Saturday, Dec. 13, the 33-year-old rapper shared a hilarious workout video on Instagram, promoting her upcoming Little Miss Drama tour the Cardi way.
“We in Saudi Arabia baby. I told you, after giving birth I gotta get ready for the Little Miss Drama Tour. It is two months away,” the rapper said as she jokingly ran on the treadmill and rode an exercise bike, all while wearing both a hijab and an abaya.
“Everybody keeps asking me, ‘Cardi, how do you lose all that weight after the baby? What did you do? You look great.’ I’ll tell you how I did it. Stress,” Cardi — who recently gave birth to her fourth baby — said after moving to the exercise bike.
Back on the treadmill, Cardi — real name Belcalis Almánzar — told fans to get their tickets for the tour while they’re still available.
“It is Christmas. It is Kwanzaa. It is Hanukkah. Get your kids the tickets now. Because in January don’t be hitting me up like, ‘Cardi there’s no tickets left.’ I don’t have any more tickets… I don’t have nothing but this tour to give you. Okay?” she said.
The “Up” rapper signed off by yelling “Mashallah,” which is an Arabic phrase meaning “what God has willed.”
Cardi captioned the post, “I told ya’ll imma be getting ready for tour ! Anytime ! ANY PLACE ….yall got y’all tickets ?”
Cardi announced her Little Miss Drama Tour, which is in support of her latest studio album Am I the Drama?, in September. The tour is scheduled to kick in February and includes stops in major cities before wrapping in Atlanta in April.
On Sept. 18, Cardi shared a video on her Instagram where she promised she’d still go out on tour, despite the timing of her fourth baby’s birth.
“On February 11, it will be the first day of my tour. Little Miss Drama. And let me tell y’all something. I want to let y’all know what headspace I’m in,” she said at the time. “I want this s— real f—ing bad. I want this s— like I’m on the third floor in the Bronx and I need to get the f— on out. That’s how bad I want it.”
“Nothing and anything is stopping me,” the “Bodak Yellow” rapper said. “This is the hard part for me. I’ve been waking up at 6 a.m. and going to bed at 2 a.m.. I’ve been going overseas, I’ve done fashion shows, I’ve done music videos.”

“S—, I’ve been doing magazine covers. I have done so much. After this album run, it’s straight to exercising. It’s straight to dance classes,” she added. “When the baby come out, my body will be loose and straight rehearsals with all my dancers. I’m not playing.”
Cardi’s rep confirmed to PEOPLE on Nov. 13 that she had welcomed her baby, a boy, with boyfriend Stefon Diggs.
The “Drip” rapper — who shares three children, Kulture, Wave and Blossom, with her estranged husband Offset — also confirmed the news on Instagram, later sharing her son’s birthdate as Nov. 4.
