The New York Knicks may have lost to the San Antonio Spurs at Game 3 of the NBA Finals, but there were still plenty of highlights at the highly anticipated matchup—most notably a surprise appearance from New York’s very own Cardi B, who took the court at Madison Square Garden to perform her songs “Bodak Yellow” and “Bodega Baddie” in inches upon inches of extra-long, sweeping dark hair.
If you thought Cardi was just there to cheer on the Knicks with her son Wave, well, you’d be wrong! She was there to watch, but she was also there to work! Cardi paired her super-fitted catsuit with nearly ankle-length hair parted precisely in the middle, styled as always by her longtime hairstylist Tokyo Stylez, who described the hairstyle as looking like “silk.” It was the perfect pick for a quick but very impactful performance (just over three minutes) and flowed dramatically behind Cardi as she strutted from her seat through a throng of dancers to the center of the floor. And when we say her hair was long, we mean it—it didn’t end at her hip, her butt, or her knees, but hit right between her calf and ankle for extra drama.

The rest of Cardi’s beauty details were just as notable, including her equally long, bright white stiletto-shaped nails and matching white pedicure by nail artist Jenny Bui. Makeup artist Erika La’ Pearl applied classic Cardi B glam: precise brows, long lashes, and a subtly shiny lip.
“Bodak Yellow” came out in 2017, skyrocketing Cardi to worldwide fame, and since then she’s solidified her place as one of the biggest rap and beauty icons in the industry. She launched her hair-care brand, Grow-Good, this year—a project that was more than three years in the making—and continues to have so much fun with her beauty routine, whether that’s with a denim-blue bob or a rainbow updo. The Knicks play the Spurs again on June 10, so we’ll be keeping a very close eye on the celeb-studded front row for another Cardi cameo.
