Cardi B Reveals She Just Got Her Butt Crack Pierced—And She Even Took A Photo As Proof

The further we move into the 21st century, the more common we find body piercings. Small nose piercings that might have been scandalous in the past are practically passé now, at least with younger folk.

Then there's rapper Cardi B, who posted that she had apparently taken the idea of body piercing to a whole new ... gluteal level.

Cardi B recently posted that she had "her butt crack pierced," which immediately prompted a flurry of interest in what that could even mean.

Called gluteal microdermals, these piercings carry a significantly increased risk of infection. Microdermals, or horizonal piercings through any part of the skin, are already ripe for infection and notoriously difficult to care for, even when they're not anywhere near a bacterial breeding zone like the butt.

Folks had some important questions, starting with...how?

A lot of people didn't even know that butt crack piercings were an option.

Perhaps predictably, some demanded pictures.

One commenter was very intrigued by the idea.

Most folks had lots of questions about the whole thing.

The rapper then shared a blurry, close-up photo of her new piercing, asking fans, "Do I lie?"

Fans were stunned, slightly perplexed.

These are not Cardi B's first microdermal piercings, however, as she's had at least a couple on her chest before that healed well.

Still, the general consensus seemed to be...ick.

Cardi B will next be headed to the Victory Fan Fest in New Orleans for the Super Bowl.
