Somebody tell Lil’ Kim that the VMAs has a new favorite breast.
While introducing a performance by Demi Lovato at the 2017 Video Music Awards, Cardi B shouted out to former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who ignited a national controversy when he took a knee during the national anthem in support of Black Lives Matter at an August 2016 pre-season game.
Cardi B, who dominated the VMA pre-show with her stunning looks, shouted out Kaepernick and his decision to kneel.
Getting a shout out from the “Bodak Yellow” singer is more support than the NFL has given Kaepernick: he remains unsigned after his decision to stand for black lives.

“Colin Kaepernick, as long as you kneel for us, we’ll stand with you,” Cardi B said to those in the audience and watching at home. “That’s right, I said it!”
People on Twitter loved the show of solidarity from the Afro-Latina rapper.
People were also loving that while she did the show of solidarity, her dress slinked lower and lower, exposing her breast.

Cardi B and I have so much in common. Every time I get excited about Colin Kaepernick, my breast also escapes my shirt. #VMAs
