Offset Admits He Lied About Cardi B Cheating Because He Was 'Really Lit' on Tequila

It seems the cheating allegations about Cardi B came from a source much closer to home.

In an interview on Monday with radio personality Angela Yee, Offset revealed that he was behind the infidelity rumors about his wife, Cardi B.

The subject came up when Yee referenced a since-deleted June Instagram Story post in which Offset claimed Cardi, 30, was unfaithful.

“My wife f—-ked a N- - - a on me gang yall n—-as know how I come,” the Georgia native wrote for his 22 million followers — and it didn’t take long for the post to go viral.

However, Offset, 31, took the opportunity to set the record straight while speaking with the Way Up with Yee podcast host.

“That’s my wife. I love her to death,” Offset told Yee before detailing what caused that particular fiasco. He claimed the two had been arguing, and that “if you got a New York woman, you know she’s a pitbull at the mouth.”

“We’re going back and forth and I’m like, ‘Watch this,'” he said, referring to the Instagram Story he posted about the made-up cheating allegations.

He added that the driving factor in making the allegations online was nothing more than a few rounds of Casamigos tequila. “We crazy for each other,” Offset confessed. 

The "Bad and Boujee" rapper added that he didn't think anyone else was owed an explanation after he deleted the post.

“The delete is enough because at the end of the day them people don’t be really knowing what’s going on with us, for real,” he said.

Still, the Migos rapper said that his past mistakes continue to haunt their relationship.

“To be honest, I hate the fact that every time she has an issue with somebody else, they bringing me up and my past up. My past be covering up everything I done did. All this time I ain’t did nothing,” he shared.

He specifically addressed his own infidelity after marrying Cardi in 2017.

“When I did do that, I was in a different space,” he recalled. “I was young. I had just got married. I’m getting a lot of money.”

The musician also explained that he struggled to communicate his “wants and needs.”

The interview with Yee comes just days after Offset released a teaser for his latest single "Jealousy," where he addressed rumors about "drama" between him and Cardi.

The video also features actress Jamie Lee Curtis, who is interviewing Offset, taking on the role of CNN host Sonya Friedman.

"Your fans are saying there is a lot of drama between you and your beautiful wife Cardi B," Curtis, 64, remarked.

"Haaaaaaaa," Offset replied, avoiding a straight answer.

"OK, you're not going to answer my f---ing question are you?" Curtis asked.

"There's no problems," he said curtly, before the Halloween Ends actress interjected: "She seems... upset, Offset."

"I'm out on love," the "Code" rapper declared.

But all seemed to be well between the pair, who share two children, — daughter Kulture Kiari, 5, and son Wave Set, 22 months — last Thursday.

The rapper presented his wife with a colorful rose bouquet while out on a date night ahead of "Jealousy"'s midnight drop.
