Cardi B confirms Am I the Drama? album title is a Drag Race reference
Cardi B's newly announced album Am I the Drama? is generating buzz—not just for its bold title, but for its surprising connection to RuPaul's Drag Race star Scarlet Envy.
The phrase, made famous by Scarlet during her All Stars 6 promo, became a viral meme—and now, it's the title of Cardi's highly anticipated sophomore album.
Following speculation from fans and Drag Race queens online, Cardi B's team confirmed the connection. 'While Cardi's album is inspired by her real-life drama, she loves Scarlet Envy and they're in talks to work together soon,' said Ashley Kalmanowitz of Atlantic Music Group in a statement to Entertainment Weekly.
The playful reference sparked reactions from several Drag Race alumni. Jan, Scarlet's fellow All Stars 6 contestant, posted the album cover with the caption, 'Scarlet Envy i am shaking,' while Drag Race finalist Luxx Noir London joked, 'Scarlet Envy should sue.'

Scarlet originally coined the phrase in a 2021 All Stars 6 interview, and it's remained a fan-favorite meme. After her stints on Season 11, All Stars 6, and UK vs. the World 2, Scarlet's legacy appears to be reaching new heights with this unexpected pop culture crossover.
Am I the Drama? drops September 19 and marks Cardi B's first solo album since 2018's Grammy-winning Invasion of Privacy. The rapper has since topped charts with hits like 'WAP' and 'Up,' but fans are eager to see her next chapter—one that now includes a bit of Drag Race flair.

One step closer to Batman: Matt Reeves completes script for The Batman 2
Matt Reeves has officially completed the script for The Batman 2, confirming the long-awaited sequel's progress. The director took to Instagram on Friday, sharing a photo of the script with co-writer Mattson Tomlin, announcing the milestone with the caption "Partners in Crime (Fighters)." While the first page of the script was blurred out, the image clearly featured the iconic Batman logo, giving fans a glimpse of what's to come. The sequel to The Batman, which was initially announced in April 2022 after the success of Robert Pattinson's debut as the Dark Knight, has faced multiple delays. However, it is now set for release on October 1, 2027, marking over five years since the first film grossed more than $772 million at the box office. The news comes just ahead of the launch of James Gunn and Peter Safran's new DC Universe with Superman. Gunn recently addressed fan frustration over the delay of The Batman 2's script in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, urging fans to be patient with Reeves. "Let the guy write the screenplay in the amount of time he needs," Gunn said. He further emphasized that Reeves would not deliver the script until he was completely satisfied with it, reassuring fans that the wait would be worth it. This announcement has sparked renewed excitement for the sequel, which promises to build on the success of its predecessor.

Stefon Diggs rents French castle for Cardi B ahead of her new album release and Offset divorce drama
NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs surprised Cardi B with a royal getaway, renting a castle in France for their summer trip. The New England Patriots star fulfilled the rapper's long-standing wish to explore a European castle by booking a stay in one, complete with all the luxury and charm. Cardi B gave fans a tour of their temporary home via Instagram Stories, highlighting its moat, indoor pool, dining hall, and themed bathrooms. She jokingly referred to the bathroom setup, saying, 'This is where we take the royal s***,' before laughing and pointing to the bath: 'Where I will wash my royal hiney.' According to Cardi, Diggs planned the entire trip after she mentioned that she rarely had time to explore castles while in Europe. His response was to rent an entire one, turning her offhand comment into a lavish reality. Though the couple's stay is filled with scenic views and regal aesthetics, Diggs hasn't taken a break from training. He brought his trainer along and shared footage of his intense workout sessions on social media. Cardi even cheered him on as he lifted weights, praising his discipline throughout the trip. The pair also made headlines recently due to a viral yacht video of Diggs distributing a mysterious pink substance which sparked an internal investigation by the New England Patriots. Cardi, meanwhile, has been navigating a high-profile divorce from Offset, filed in July 2024, involving disputes over custody and financial support. Despite the personal drama, Cardi announced her long-awaited second album, Am I the Drama?, set to release on September 19, 2025, marking her first full project since Invasion of Privacy in 2018.
