A jury sided with Cardi B on Friday in a copyright infringement case involving a man who claimed the Grammy-winning rapper misused his back tattoos for her sexually suggestive 2016 mixtape cover art.
The federal jury in Southern California ruled Kevin Michael Brophy did not prove Cardi B misappropriated his likeness. After the jury forewoman read the verdict, the rapper hugged her attorneys and appeared joyful."I wasn't sure if I was going to lose or not," she said after leaving the courthouse. She was swarmed by several reporters, photographers and more than 40 high schoolers who chanted her name.
But Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Almanzar, disputed the allegations during her testimony earlier in the week - and had such an intense exchange with Cappello that the trial was briefly halted by U.S. District Judge Cormac Carney. Cappello said Gooden was paid $50 to create a design, but was told to find another tattoo after he turned in an initial draft. He said Gooden googled"back tattoos" before he found an image and pasted it on the cover.
