Cardi B has been hospitalised with a "medical emergency".

The 32-year-old star cancelled her performance at this weekend's ONE MusicFest as she confirmed she has been recovering from a health scare.

She wrote in a statement shared to Instagram: "I am so sad to share this news, but I've been in the hospital recovering from a medical emergency the last couple of days and I won't be able to perform at ONE MusicFest.

"It breaks my heart that I won't get to see my fans this weekend and I really wish I could be there.

"Bardi Gang - thank you for understanding and I'll be back better and stronger soon. Don't worry. Love yall."

The 'WAP' hitmaker is yet to confirm the nature of the medical emergency.

The festival organisers are "working hard to find a replacement", while they send well wishes to Cardi during a tough time.

They wrote: "Unfortunately, @iamcardib announced that she is no longer available to join us this year due to ongoing health issues.

"Let’s all keep her in our prayers for a full recovery! We are working hard to find a replacement at this late date."

Cardi - who has Kulture, six, Wave, three, and a seven-week-old baby girl with estranged husband Offset - recently vowed to sue an alleged prank caller who reported her to Child Protective Services (CPS).

Sharing an Instagram Live video on Monday (21.10.24) from hospital, where she said she had been recovering from an undisclosed issue, Cardi told her followers: "So I wanna make this very f****** clear, and I can’t even breathe right now.

“Motherf****** have taken s*** too f****** far when you mess with my f****** kids...

"For the Child Protective Services to come to my f****** house? Not my house, my gated mansion at 11 p.m. while my children are sleeping because there’s an anonymous call ... that my kids have been getting abused and beaten. Are you f****** dumb?”

The 'Bodak Yellow' hitmaker insisted no one had ever hit the children and both she and Offset have always prioritised their happiness and safety.

She said she would hire a private investigator to find out who had reported her so she could take legal action.
