Is Stefon Diggs just Cardi B's plus-one? Fans question if NFL star is riding the rapper's financial coattails

When Cardi B and Stefon Diggs stepped out courtside at Madison Square Garden, the buzz wasn't just about their official debut as a couple — it was about the dollars. Fans celebrated the unlikely but exciting match between the rap queen and the NFL star, but social media quickly zeroed in on their bank accounts.
The consensus? Cardi B is clearly the one bringing the bigger bag.
Cardi B's $101 million empire overshadows her new beau's NFL millions
Cardi B has never been shy about her money moves, and 2025 is no different. According to CEO Today, the Bronx-born rapper now boasts a net worth of $101.6 million, second only to Nicki Minaj in the female rap world. From music to brand deals to fashion, Cardi has built herself into a full-blown empire.
When fan account @BardiDetails posted about her new nine-figure milestone, Cardi chimed in with confidence: 'And when that tour hits …..'
followed by flying cash emojis, hinting that her wealth is still growing.
Her financial muscle comes from more than just hit singles. Cardi's endorsements, streaming royalties, fashion collaborations, and upcoming tour revenue are all part of her rapid financial rise.
Stefon Diggs isn't broke, but the gap is hard to ignore
On the other side of the relationship, Stefon Diggs brings plenty of financial success — just not Cardi-level. The Houston Texans wide receiver holds an estimated net worth of $38 million in 2025.
Though that's nothing to scoff at, it still prompted fans to wonder if Cardi's carrying more than just the vibe.
To his credit, Diggs has earned over $137 million throughout his NFL career, which includes his time with the Vikings, Bills, and now the Texans. In 2022, he inked a $96 million extension before being traded to Houston in 2024. His endorsement deals — including Nike, Verizon, and Old Spice — bring in a few extra million, according to Forbes.
The internet doesn't miss a beat, and users have been quick to ask: 'Is Cardi paying the bills?' Some jested about Diggs needing a feature on her next album, while others praised the duo for ignoring the noise and embracing their relationship in public.

Kagiso Rabada Moving On From Drug Episode: 'I'll Never Be Mr-I-Apologise-Too-Much'
South African star Kagiso Rabada is 'glad to be playing again' after his one-month ban for recreational drug use, but at the same time, he's looking forward to completely moving on from the episode. Speaking on Saturday (May 1), weeks before the 2025 World Test Championship Final, he emphasised that though he'll never condone what he did, he'll also not be a 'Mr-I-Apologise-Too-Much'. Rabada tested positive and accepted the ban during IPL 2025. He left the Gujarat Titans camp midway through the season and returned to South Africa. The information was revealed to the media when he was close to finishing the ban and rejoined the Titans camp, though he didn't feature much. He will be eligible to play for the country from June, allowing him to play the summit clash against Australia at Lord's from June 11 to 15.

Netflix Tudum 2025: Full list of shows, games expected
Netflix is counting on devoted fans of "Stranger Things," "Squid Game" and "Wednesday" to tune in to its streaming service Saturday night. But they won't log in to see new episodes of those most popular shows. Instead, viewers will be greeted with sneak peeks and cast reunions, as part of Tudum, an occasional in-person marketing event for Netflix that the company has turned into a streamed variety show. Think marketing as entertainment. The show, expected to last from 90 to 120 minutes, will emphasize the company's three most popular series, two of which will end this year ("Squid Game" and "Stranger Things") and one that is returning ("Wednesday"). Lady Gaga will be on hand to perform a miniconcert. Her song "Bloody Mary" became a viral sensation when fans paired a version of it with a dance from "Wednesday." Lady Gaga also has a cameo on the show in Season 2. Netflix, which signed a 10-year, $5 billion deal last year for World Wrestling Entertainment's flagship show, "Raw," will bring out some WWE stars such as CM Punk and Rhea Ripley to extol their love for other Netflix content. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon will promote their new film, "The Rip." Cookie Monster will make an appearance as part of Netflix's new deal to stream "Sesame Street." And AJ McLean, a member of the Backstreet Boys, will promote a new reality show, "Building the Band." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play War Thunder now for free War Thunder Play Now Undo The event illustrates Netflix's growing appetite for streaming live events. In just the past year, the company has lured giant audiences to the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, two NFL games on Christmas Day, and a roast of former quarterback Tom Brady. And it has plans to do much more. Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano will get a rematch in July at Madison Square Garden as part of an all-female boxing card, and the NFL will return to the service again on Christmas. Netflix's Brazilian marketing team originated the Tudum event in 2020 after seeing how active Netflix fans were at events such as Brazil Comic-Con. The first iteration pulled in about 50,000 people over four days. Netflix revived the event in 2023, after the COVID-19 pandemic subsided, luring 35,000 to the festival. The event generated more than 78 million views across the company's social channels, including a livestream on YouTube. Live Events The first two Tudum events were held in Sao Paulo in 2020 and in 2023. Thousands of Brazilians waited in line to attend those multiday events. Saturday's event, though, will be held in Los Angeles, at the Kia Forum, starting at 5 p.m. Pacific. The 9,500 tickets, which went on sale May 9 for $25 to $75, sold out in a week. What differentiates those events from Tudum 2025 is that Netflix is now eager to exploit its live capabilities. The company has teamed up with Silent House Productions, its partner on the SAG Awards and the producer of the concert film for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, to produce the event. Netflix's marketing team under Lee began planning this year's version of Tudum over a year ago, this time working closely with its content team to tailor the event to those in the stands and to those on their couches. FAQs Q1. When is Netflix Tudum 2025 ? A1. Netflix Tudum 2025 is schedule on Saturday, May 31. Q2. When did Netflix Tudum first happen? A2. The first two Tudum events were held in Sao Paulo in 2020 and in 2023.
