Football jerseys and sneakers were no match for Cardi B, who went for a head-turning sexy wardrobe for Super Bowl 2025 weekend.
The Grammy winner, 32, was among the stars partying up in celebration of the big game, which saw the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 on Sunday, Feb. 9.
Before the matchup officially kicked off at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome, the “Up” rapper got the party started early at two pregame bashes.

For one of them, she wore a nude-colored dress with waist cutouts showing her tattoos and a major keyhole cutout in the center. She shared a TikTok video of her before and after putting on the daring piece to promote Whipshots, her vodka-infused whip cream.
She later posted a video on X (formerly Twitter) in the look, where she had a bit of a wardrobe malfunction. While filming, the slit of Cardi’s dress caused a slight nip slip. She didn’t acknowledge the faux pas in the clip, but seemed to have addressed it by blurring it out in the same video posted to TikTok.

One sexy dress wasn’t enough for Cardi, who changed into another metallic halter dress with an equally risqué cutout number for a special appearance at Beacher’s Madhouse on Feb. 8.
For the actual Super Bowl, the mom of three wore a team-neutral outfit, neither going green nor red, but instead rocking a daring silver halter dress with a three-tiered stack of bangles and platform peep-toe heels with sharp spikes on them. She wore fiery red hair in a long ponytail with a side bang.

Cardi’s whirlwind weekend in the Big Easy, which appeared to have commenced on Feb. 7, comes after her glam appearance at the 2025 Grammys, where she presented best rap album to Doechii for Alligator Bites Never Heal. She was also nominated for best rap performance for her single “Enough (Miami)” from her upcoming sophomore album.
Styled by Kollin Carter, “Bodak Yellow” rapper — who welcomed her third child only six months ago — turned heads in a custom Roberto Cavalli Couture mermaid gown hand-embroidered with beads and sequins arranged in a pattern inspired by a tiger’s stripes. The curve-hugging dress also featured multicolored feathers on the train and a boa that Cardi ditched for photos.
Her hair and makeup channeled Old Hollywood glamour, but her jagged black tips on her “Russian stiletto” manicure, achieved by nail artist and OPI ambassador Coco Michelle, was way ahead of its time.
