Offset’s Extravagant Birthday Gift Sparks Controversy

Offset, the renowned rapper and husband of Cardi B, made headlines recently for his extravagant gift-giving on Cardi B’s birthday. Amidst the lavish celebrations, Offset surprised his wife with three new crocodile Birkin bags, raising eyebrows and drawing criticism from animal rights organization PETA.

Key Takeaway

Offset’s gift of crocodile Birkin bags to Cardi B on her birthday has sparked controversy and drawn fierce criticism from PETA. The animal rights organization accuses Offset of supporting a gruesome industry that inflicts cruelty upon animals for luxury fashion items.

In a scathing statement, PETA Vice President Lisa Lange condemned Offset’s choice of gift, stating, “Instead of using his wealth and influence for good, Offset chose to funnel hundreds of thousands of dollars into a gruesome, violent industry that electroshocks crocodiles, shoves metal rods into their heads in an attempt to scramble their brains, and mutilates them while they’re still alive.”

Lange further expressed her disappointment, claiming that Offset and Cardi B’s actions demonstrate a lack of empathy and awareness. According to PETA, spending large sums of money on products made from animal body parts perpetuates cruelty and reflects either ignorance or apathy towards animal welfare.

PETA, through its research and internal investigations across Asia, claims to have uncovered the inhumane treatment of reptiles in the fashion industry. They commend luxury brands like Chanel, Burberry, HUGO BOSS, and Vivienne Westwood for taking steps to address and correct their practices.

Cardi B’s birthday celebrations continued with a dual party for Offset’s new album “Set It Off.” However, even this occasion faced scrutiny as Cardi B was seen serving burgers to the crowd, another concern for the animal rights organization.

As of now, Offset has not responded regarding whether he plans to return the controversial gifts. Cardi B’s positive reaction suggests that the crocodile Birkin bags are likely to remain a permanent fixture in their household.
