Cardi B‘s a mother of 2 now … so she’s asking the judge to postpone the trial over her ‘Gangsta Bitch’ cover art, which she was sued over nearly 4 years ago.
If you don’t recall … the album cover for Cardi’s debut mixtape — “Gangsta Bitch Music Vol. 1” — features the rapper sitting back, drinking a beer, while a man with an elaborate back tattoo puts his head between her legs.
Kevin Brophy sued over the image, claiming that’s 100 percent him in the image, but he never posed for the photo or gave Cardi permission to use his likeness. He also claimed the ordeal ruined his life and wanted at least $5 mil in damages.
The trial was finally slated for next month, but Cardi’s filed new legal docs — obtained by TMZ — asking for a delay because she just gave birth to her son on Sept. 4.
According to the docs … Cardi doesn’t believe she should be required to travel all the way from the East Coast to Southern California next month, because she needs to be with her newborn for obvious reasons.
She also brings up the risks of COVID from travel and spending extended periods of time in public places, such as airports, hotels, and the courthouse. So, she’s asking the court to put the trial on ice for at least 75 days.
The judge has yet to make a decision … but Brophy may have to wait a little longer for his day in court.
