Cardi B Slams Offset After He Requests Spousal Support in Their Divorce: ‘I Want You to Die Slow'
Cardi B torched Offset after learning that her estranged husband filed for spousal support in their divorce proceedings. She hopped on X Spaces on Friday (May 30) and exploded on her ex for his spousal support request. The Grammy-winning rapper called Set a 'f—-ing b—h' during her emotionally charged rant.
'Cus now I'ma crash out and I don't give a f–k. You a b—h. N—a, you a f—ing b—h,' she began. Cardi B called out the reasoning behind Offset's spousal support request, as he told The Breakfast Club it was over Cardi 'asking for everything' and not letting him see their kids, which she denies.

'You such a f–king p—y a– n—a,' she continued. 'Word to my mother, I want you to die, but I want you to die f–king slow. When you die, I want you to die slow in the bed. And when you die, n—a, you gotta think of me.'
Cardi explained that she amended her divorce filing, asking for 'no child support' because she 'wants to be done with this marriage.'
'[Offset] is allowed to see my kids. He stood up my kids three times. He has seen Blossom only like five times,' she said of their four-month-old. 'And I've been trying to save your face … Stop playing.'
She went on to claim that the last time Offset saw their kids was in March at his son Kody's birthday. (He shares the 7-year-old with ex Oriel Jamie. Cardi detailed that the Migos rapper took issue with having to see their kids in a hotel room since she's not allowing him to pull up to their New Jersey house.
Billboard has reached out to Offset's reps for comment.
Earlier this month, Offset updated Cardi's divorce petition in New Jersey's Bergen County Superior Court with a request for an unspecified amount of alimony.
After more than six years of marriage, Cardi filed for divorce from Offset in August for a second time, seeking primary custody of their 6-year-old daughter Kulture, 3-year-old son Wave and baby girl Blossom. In February, Offset responded to the divorce, seeking joint custody of the children.
It appears Cardi B has moved on, as the 'WAP' rapper was spotted courtside at a New York Knicks playoff game earlier in May with NFL star Stefon Diggs.

'Phineas and Ferb' is back after 10-year hiatus: See cast, how to watch new season
Dude, we're getting the band back together: "Phineas and Ferb" is returning to television just in time for 104 days of summer vacation. The hit Disney animated series is premiering a new season on June 5 after a decade-long hiatus. The Emmy Award-winning show follows two geometrically-shaped stepbrothers during their summer escapades. From building a rocket to fighting a mummy, Phineas and Ferb seem to always find a good way to spend it. The new season will also see the return of Perry the Platypus, the iconic animated pet who aims to thwart Dr. Doofenshmirtz's plans to take over the tristate area. Some of the series' popular voices are returning for the new season. Here's everything to know. The fifth season of "Phineas and Ferb" will kick off with two premiere episodes on Thursday, June 5, at 8 p.m. ET on Disney Channel and Disney XD. The first episode will be available the same day on Disney Channel YouTube. The season's first ten episodes will subsequently be released on Friday, June 6, on Disney+. The show's new season promises several new milestones for the stepbrothers and their group of friends, according to a release from Disney. During the season, Phineas and Ferb will break several world records, Candace will take her driver's license test and Perry the Platypus will finally make a trip to the vet, according to the release. Of course, there will also be more catchy songs — the original soundtrack, which includes 13 songs, will be available on June 6 on streaming platforms, Disney said. Early 2000s Disney Channel fans will surely feel a bit of nostalgia tuning into the latest season of "Phineas and Ferb," which will mark Ashley Tisdale's return to the network. "Who knew yelling 'MOOOOM' would be a career highlight?" Tisdale wrote about her role as outspoken older sister Candace on Instagram. "20 years later and I'm still pinching myself. So grateful to be part of something this special - thank you to the fans who brought it back, kept it alive, and made it iconic." In addition to Tisdale, Alyson Stoner will also be returning to play Isabella Garcia-Shapiro. The voices behind titular characters Phineas and Ferb — Vincent Martella and David Errigo Jr, respectively — are also back for the new season. Caroline Rhea is once again voicing Linda Flynn-Fletcher, and Dee Bradley Baker will play Perry the Platypus.

WBUR convened a dream lineup for its inaugural festival. Facing funding threats, can the event help it reinvent its business?
Advertisement Tectonic shifts in the media business have forced all news organizations to rapidly adapt to the digital age, including at public media organizations such as WBUR. Led by Margaret Low, an NPR veteran who helped pioneer The Atlantic's successful events business, WBUR's inaugural festival was not just a 75th anniversary celebration, but a test case for a business facing immense financial challenges. The festival turned a profit and brought in roughly $3.7 million in revenue from ticket sales, sponsors, and an anonymous $1 million donor, WBUR said. But now, with the federal government mounting the most significant threat to public media's federal funding in its history, the test is whether tentpole events such as the festival can help sustain the organization for years to come. Advertisement 'I would love this to be the first of many,' Low said. 'I do see it as both a revenue source, but also an ability to sort of expand our circle and do more in the city.' Over the course of two days, with special events such as a live taping of NPR quiz show 'Wait Tell Me!' held before, WBUR convened a dream lineup of conversations for its faithful audience. Friday alone featured headliner after headliner: Garten, Barbaro, tech journalist Kara Swisher, The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg, Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Viet Thanh Nguyen, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, bestselling author Roxane Gay, and environmentalist Bill McKibben. 'We care about what's going on in the world, and this is a great opportunity to bring things like [Jeffrey] Goldberg on the Trump administration, but also art and science and innovation,' said attendee Connie Breece, 73, a midwife from Boston. The station held a 75th anniversary bash during the midpoint of the festival, transforming BU's fitness center Friday night into a fête replete with hors d'oeuvres, a live auction, and sit-down dinner featuring awards, a Josh Ritter musical performance, and interview with Nobel Laureate and Substack writer Paul Krugman. The architect of the festival is Low, who after nearly 26 years at NPR joined The Atlantic in 2014 as president of its events business, where she helped rebrand the magazine's Washington Ideas Forum into The Atlantic Festival. By the time she left The Atlantic for WBUR in 2020 her team was producing more than 100 conferences a year. 'I knew that that public radio in particular, had a natural entrée into this world. We're constantly grappling with big issues and ideas,' Low said. 'We have people who understand what it means to lead a conversation.' Advertisement Those conversations were on full display this past weekend. WBUR journalists such as 'Morning Edition' host Tiziana Dearing interviewed Mayor Wu and her City Hall challenger Josh Kraft, and 'On Point' host Meghna Chakrabarti interviewed Dr. Anthony Fauci and Krugman. Events are a not a sure-fire moneymaker. The costs of bringing speakers in, renting and decorating venues, buying food and drink, and more is high, and profit margins can often be thin. 'Taking risks these days is not something you see very often in the media business,' said Evan Smith, co-founder of the Texas Tribune and an advisor to the WBUR Festival. But those risks are necessary for many media organizations. Just this week, WBUR's public media counterpart in Boston, GBH, This year, Low said, her organization's financial picture is stronger. She said this week that the station expects to have $2 million more than its budget at the end of June, when its current fiscal year ends, and she is not planning on making any cuts. Now, in addition to the larger financial challenges, public media organizations such as WBUR and GBH are facing the most significant threat of losing federal funding in its existence. President Trump signed an Advertisement The threats make alternative ways of making money crucial. But at a time when Trump and some Congressional Republicans argue that public media no longer needs taxpayer support, events such as the WBUR Festival 'might even weaken the rationale for continued public support,' said Victor Pickard, a University of Pennsylvania media policy professor. It also might provide more fuel for Trump to call out NPR for its perceived liberal bias. WBUR Festival speakers including Goldberg and Fauci have both been the subject of attacks from the president, and many of the speakers leaned liberal. 'If I'm seeing this from the White House, I can't help but notice how the lineup of the speakers leans one way politically,' said Howard Husock, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and former board member at the CPB. Low said that WBUR had 'a wonderful mix' of speakers and that while there were people who declined invitations to participate, the organization was 'really happy with the lineup.' While students received free or discounted tickets, and some events were covered on WBUR's website or streamed at WCVB, festival such as this one can't be open to all. Two-day tickets to the festival cost $250, single days went for $150, and VIPs, who received front orchestra seats to the separately-ticketed 'Wait Tell Me!' event and other perks, shelled out $500. 'They're certainly going to be beyond the means of many poor and working class households,' Pickard said. Advertisement While Pickard would rather public media be truly public, and receive federal funding akin to similar organizations in other liberal democracies, he understands why WBUR and other public media organizations would turn to revenue-generating events. Smith, who helped create the annual festival at the nonprofit Texas Tribune, said he didn't believe that putting on an event with important conversations and making money had to be mutually exclusive. 'The content at WBUR is free,' Smith said. 'You need to fund the ability to make it free.' Aidan Ryan can be reached at

Frontman of '80s synth pop band reveals Parkinson's diagnosis at 65
Morten Harket, frontman of the famous Norwegian band A-ha, has Parkinson's disease. The 65-year-old singer opened up about his diagnosis and treatment in an article on the band's website. 'I've got no problem accepting the diagnosis,' Harket said. 'With time I've taken to heart my 94-year-old father's attitude to the way the organism gradually surrenders: 'I use whatever works.'' Parkinson's disease is an age-related degenerative brain condition in which parts of the brain start to deteriorate, according to the Cleveland Clinic. The incurable condition typically starts to develop in individuals 60 and older. It is also slightly more common in men. Symptoms include slowed movements, tremors and balance problems. Harket had kept his diagnosis mostly private except for some people close to him, until now. 'Part of me wanted to reveal it. Like I said, acknowledging the diagnosis wasn't a problem for me; it's my need for peace and quiet to work that has been stopping me,' he said. The singer traveled to the United States in June 2024 for brain surgery at the Mayo Clinic, which 'led to a dramatic improvement in his symptoms.' The surgery involved implanting electrodes in the left side of his brain that are connected to a device under the skin on his chest that sends electrical impulses to the electrodes for deep brain stimulation. Later, in December, he had the surgery on the right side of his brain. While Harket's symptoms improved, he still has to cope with the daily trials of the degenerative disorder. 'I'm trying the best I can to prevent my entire system from going into decline. It's a difficult balancing act between taking the medication and managing its side effects,' Harket said. 'There's so much to weigh up when you're emulating the masterful way the body handles every complex movement, or social matters and invitations, or day-to-day life in general.' However, Harket isn't letting his symptoms stop him from making music. 'I don't expect to be able to achieve full technical control,' he said of his singing voice. 'The question is whether I can express myself with my voice. As things stand now, that's out of the question. But I don't know whether I'll be able to manage it at some point in the future.' A-ha is best known for the group's international synth-pop hit, 'Take On Me,' as well as 'The Sun Always Shines on T.V.' The former topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1985 and its accompanying whimsical music video, which saw Harket and the band enter an animated drawing, has 2.1 billion views on YouTube. In 1986, the band was nominated for the Grammy for best new artist. The band released studio albums in 1986, 1988, and 1990, with single hits including 'Hunting High and Low,' 'The Living Daylights,' 'Stay on These Roads' and 'Crying in the Rain.' A-ha went on hiatus after their fifth studio album, 'Memorial Beach,' failed to match the commercial success of their previous albums. The band later reunited in 1998 and has released eleven studio albums, several compilations and four live albums to date.
