Tasha K Pays Cardi B $60K Over Defamation Deal Breach
1 Jul
Summary
- Blogger Tasha K will pay Cardi B $60,000 for violating a settlement.
- This payment resolves contempt proceedings over past online chatter.
- Tasha K must pay by year-end or owe the full $110,000.
Gossip blogger Tasha K has agreed to pay rapper Cardi B $60,000 to settle a contempt of court case. The proceedings were initiated after Tasha violated a bankruptcy settlement agreement by continuing to make disparaging remarks about Cardi B online.
The original settlement stipulated that Tasha, also known as Latasha Kebe, would delay payment of a $4 million defamation judgment as long as she refrained from commenting on Cardi B or her family. However, Tasha recently made posts and comments regarding Cardi B's estranged husband, Offset, and NFL player Stefon Diggs.
This breach led a judge to order Tasha to cover Cardi B's legal fees, totaling over $110,000. The new agreement allows Tasha to reduce this amount to $60,000 if paid promptly. She is scheduled to pay $30,000 within one month and the remaining balance by the end of 2026. This debt is secured by her husband and businesses.
Cardi B's legal team has accepted this resolution to avoid prolonged and expensive litigation over the contempt sanctions. This agreement specifically addresses the contempt issue and does not impact the ongoing $4 million debt Tasha owes Cardi B, nor Cardi B's separate lawsuit against Tasha's husband for asset concealment.
