“33 Is the Jesus Year!”: Cardi B gets real & grateful in birthday shoutout to fans

Pop that champagne — Cardi B just turned 33!

The rap superstar celebrated her birthday on 11 October, 2025, stepping into her “Jesus year” with grace, gratitude, and all the love from her fans.

Just a few weeks before blowing out her candles, Cardi dropped her highly anticipated album AM I THE DRAMA?, which made a major splash on the charts. The project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, racking up 200,000 album-equivalent units in its first week — including 145 million on-demand streams and 88,000 in pure sales. It was officially the biggest debut week for a female R&B/hip-hop album this year.

Thank you guys!

Now, as she embraces 33 and everything the year ahead holds, Cardi took to Instagram to thank everyone who showed her love on her special day. And while she didn’t drop any bars this time, her message still landed with impact.

This is the message she wrote to her fans and everyone else who wished her well:

“Thank you to everyone for all the birthday wishes! Every one normally makes their new year resolution on Jan 1st but I made mine last night ! Im feeling lucky but most of all blessed! Year 32 was a year I will never forget! But 33 is the Jesus year and I must say I never felt so covered and so protected by the man above himself. He never fails to remind me that I’m chosen and that I’m anointed and that’s the best gift I could ever ask for. Thank you all for supporting me and loving me! I love yall back!,” she wrote.

And to prove that age is just a number, Cardi shared a few stunning snaps showing off her birthday glow — pregnancy and all.
