Cameras caught the two cozied up and all smiles before, during, and after the May 12 game. And fans couldn't get enough. Was this a new couple soft launch? Were Stefon and Cardi on the ultimate NYC date night? Pics and social media content captured during the night say,'Yes.' Cardi B slayed, looking like the high-fashion girlie she is. The 'Bongos' rapper wore a fitted black leather Miu Miu top and matching pleated mini skirt. She finished the look with a bold pair of $1,389 Courrèges oblique wedged leather open-toe boots that screamed luxury edge. She styled her jet black hair in a buss-down middle part with a sleek, long finish. Paired with full lashes, a soft matte makeup look, and her signature nude glam, Cardi's beauty look was flawless.

The New England Patriots wide receiver matched her fly effortlessly in a $1,135 Simone Rocha denim jacket, fully embellished and giving luxury streetwear vibes. He rocked neat cornrows to the back, and his chocolate skin was smooth and yummy. Stefon matched Cardi B's style – and he knew it.

Whether they're just friends, vibing for now, or on their way to becoming the next 'it' couple, one thing is clear: Cardi and Stefon were among the hottest things on and off the court that night.

Cardi B Appears to Confirm New Boyfriend, Describing a ‘Fine' Man Who Loves Her ‘From Head to Toe'
Cardi B has never been one to pull punches when it comes to her love life. And on Sunday (April 27) the 'Bongos' rapper took to Twitter Spaces to lay it all out about the new man she said is rocking her world. While Cardi did not name names, she did give the gentleman props for keeping her very happy. 'It's been a couple of weeks and I haven't addressed nothing,' she began in the chat. 'Because it's like… you know when you got a gorgeous n–ga f–king you and loving you from head to toe? It's like, I don't really give a f–k what anybody says when you got a real fine n–ga that love you from head to toe. It's like, whatever, gorgeous n–ga too!'

Since then, she has reportedly been linked to New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs, though neither Cardi nor Diggs have publicly confirmed that they are a couple. According to People, Cardi was seen with Diggs at Coachella recently and earlier in the month, Offset appeared to respond to a video of Cardi partying with Diggs at a nightclub and giving the baller a lap dance, commenting 'I'm happy for her!' on an Instagram video of the moment. Fans are still awaiting any word on Cardi's long-teased sophomore album, promising in another X Spaces chat on March 31 that 'the features on my album are really good… I don't have a lot of features but I'm working with artists, some that I have worked before and some that I haven't worked before. And the ones that I have not worked before, I feel like it's gonna really, really surprise y'all.' At press time there was still no information about the long-awaited follow-up to Cardi's smash 2018 debut studio album, Invasion of Privacy.

Result of Gabon's first post-coup poll to be known soon
The authorities in Gabon have said that provisional results from Saturday's presidential election - the first since the 2023 coup that ousted Ali Bongo from power - will be known later on Sunday. The coup mastermind Gen Brice Oligui Nguema changed the constitution to allow him to run for the presidency. Ahead of the election, critics argued the constitution and electoral code were designed to give the military man a comfortable pathway to the top job. The August 2023 coup brought an end to the rule by the Bongo dynasty, which had been in power for more than five decades. Some opposition heavyweights who could have seriously challenged Oligui Nguema at the polls were excluded from the race. Eight hopefuls are in the running to become president, with only one woman in the race - Gninga Chaning Zenaba. Other presidential challengers include former Prime Minister Alain Claude Bilie-by-Nze, who served under the Bongo regime, as well as two stalwarts of the former ruling PDG party, Stéphane Germain Iloko and Alain Simplice Boungouères. Whoever wins the election will have the burden of ridding the country of corruption, bad governance, and other ills which characterised the Bongos' time in power. Who is Gen Brice Oligui Nguema? Why Gabon's coup leader is bucking a trend by embracing democracy Turn out on Saturday in some polling stations in the capital, Libreville, seemed high with long queues of voters eager to cast their ballots. The election was largely peaceful, with some observers and candidates praising the conduct of the polls. Earlier in the day, Oligui Nguema said the elections, which he described as transparent, would usher the country and its people into a new republic. However, Bilie-by-Nze alleged that there were some problems at polling stations which could potentially lead to fraud. The small oil- and timber-rich central African nation is home to just 2.5 million people. Despite its resources, about 35% of the population still live below the poverty line of $2 (£1.50) a day.
