Cardi has been open about her past life as a stripper, during which she earned $20,000 by the age of 21.

“I made a lot of money, I had a good time and it showed me a lot – it made me open my eyes about how people are, how men are, about hunger and passion and ambition,” she recently said.

She then broke into the music industry but is putting her past occupation to good use as she gears up to make her movie debut in Hustlers, alongside Jennifer Lopez.

Hustlers, which is in cinemas from 13 September 2019, is based on a New York Times article telling the true story of how a group of strippers who clubbed together to steal from the wealthy men who frequented their club.
