Cardi B might have even more in common with her 'Hustlers' character than stripping as she admitted to robbing and stealing from clients, too.
, Cardi was a teenager who found financial independence through dancing. At the time she started working at a club, she was barely scraping by at a minimum wage job at the Amish Market and living with her boyfriends’ family.
“When I started dancing I made enough money to get out of the situation I was in and go back to school. ‘Cause I went right back to school,” Cardi says in anexplaining that time in her life. An older stripper advised her to save up money and start a business — more concrete financial advice than any of her college professors had given her. That’s when she realized: “It’s all about money. It’s all about progress.
In interviews, the story’s real subjects avoid speaking about their history with concrete definitiveness. At the end of Jessica Pressler’s now-viral story, Keo retracts her candid recollection of the events and adamantly says, “I am telling you everything is fictional.” In two interviews with Jason Mattera onrecorded just days apart in 2015, Pasucci wavered between calling herself innocent and calling herself guilty.
Ultimately, whether the women were right to do this isn’t the most interesting question of Hustlers. It’s why they felt they had to — which is exactly what Cardi addresses in her own life. , Cardi revisits her past from the vantage point of her enormous success. Ironically, Cardi couldn’t actually dance in the movie. She revealed to ET that she was recovering from surgery during filming. 'This is my moment to shine, and I can't shine because I can't climb!'" Cardi told ET.
