The audacity is astronomical.
Tasha K, the blogger and YouTuber who lost a massive defamation lawsuit to Cardi B, has launched a GoFundMe to help raise money to pay the $3.5 million judgment she owes the rapper. She’s also reportedly set up campaigns on Kickstarter and other platforms. Basically, she’s crowdfunding her way out of the consequences of her own actions.
Let’s rewind. Tasha K spent years making defamatory claims about Cardi B on her platform. She got taken to court, lost, and was ordered to pay millions. That’s not bad luck — that’s accountability. And now she’s asking the public to foot the bill?
Meanwhile, Cardi B’s legal team isn’t playing around. They’ve reportedly demanded additional financial information from Tasha K to ensure the compensation settlement is being followed properly. Translation: they’re making sure she’s not hiding money while crying broke.
The internet’s reaction has been exactly what you’d expect — a mix of disbelief, comedy, and people pointing out the irony of someone who built a platform on tearing others down now begging those same people for help. Defamation has consequences, and GoFundMe wasn’t designed to bail you out of them.
