“I look over and Offset, Cardi’s fiancé, has lit a blunt,” said Cox. “He’s smoking a blunt front row at New York Fashion Week! I was like, ‘That is very rock n’ roll and that is awesome.’ Legalization, right? I told you the full tea — Cardi, I hope you don’t mind!”

She can rest easy — Cardi has made it very clear she doesn’t mind any of the rumors as long as she and her Migos rapper fiancé are happy.
