In a new interview with GQ, the rapper revealed that she had shady butt injection plastic surgery done in a basement a few years ago in Queens, New York.

The star said she received an underground, $800 butt-enhancing treatment at the age of 21 because she wanted to make more money as a stripper. But because she “didn’t have enough meat” on her body, she couldn’t go for liposuction to transfer fat to her backside. So instead, she had a woman inject fillers into the area.

“They don’t numb your ass with anything,” she told GQ of the dangerous plastic surgery procedure. “It was the craziest pain ever. I felt like I was gonna pass out. I felt a little dizzy. And it leaks for, like, five days.”

SHE WAS 'A LITTLE BIT HAPPIER' WHEN SHE HAD LESS MONEY

"Well, one positive thing [about fame] is that, my family, whatever they want, they get. Everything that I want to buy, I can get. I don’t have to worry so much about my future," the rapper revealed in an interview. Despite the newfound fame, however, Cardi B also admitted her level of happiness was impacted by being in the spotlight. "One negative thing is that, even though I’m happy, I feel like I was a little bit happier two or three years ago when I had less money. I had less people who had opinions about my life. I felt like my life was mine. Now I feel like I don’t even own my life. I feel like the world owns me."

In the April 2018 issue of Cosmopolitan, the rapper addressed why she’s open to speaking about her pole-dancing days: “People say, ‘Why do you always got to say that you used to be a stripper? We get it.’ Because y’all don’t respect me because of it, and y’all going to respect these strippers from now on… Just because somebody was a stripper don’t mean they don’t have no brain,” she told the magazine.

Although the rapper fully embraces her past, she confessed her mother wasn’t pleased with her means of making money back then. “When my mom found out I was a dancer, she was pretty upset,” Cardi revealed to drag queen Naomi Smalls in a video for Cosmpolitan.com. Her mom’s disapproval only pushed the Bronx-native to strive for more: “Me knowing that she used to hate it, it didn’t allow me to get comfortable with what I was doing.”

When asked if her pregnancy was planned, during an interview on Power 105.1’s show The Breakfast Club, Cardi B laughed and said, “No, it wasn’t planned,” adding, “It was just one night … it was a good night … that one night, it had to be that night.”

Cardi B admitted she “kinda, sorta” considered terminating her pregnancy for a short time, “But then I didn’t want to deal with the whole abortion thing. I just didn’t want to.”

“And it’s just like, ‘You know what? I’m a grown woman. I’m 25 years old. I’m gonna say this in the most humblest way … I’m a schmillionaire, you know what I’m saying? And I’m prepared for this.’ ”

The rapper offered a look inside her relationship with the Migos artist — and his alleged cheating ways — with the release of "Be Careful", her single off Invasion of Privacy.

In the song, Cardi raps and sings about a man who decided to “creep and s—” after she “poured my whole heart” out.

“Man, I thought you would’ve learned your lesson ‘bout liking pictures, not returning texts,” she said in the song, adding, “I coulda did what you did to me a few times, but that’s not my M.O.”

Continuing, she went on to say, “Be careful with me. Yeah, it’s not a threat, it’s a warning,” explaining that “you might have a fortune, but you lose me, you still gon’ be misfortunate.”
