She added that she and Diggs are in similar positions because they’re both ambitious and are some of "the greatest" in their respective fields.

Cardi B also said that Diggs makes her feel safe. "I mean, like, two weeks ago I was literally having a panic attack. I was, like, crying and crying and crying, just because I was just getting really nervous with you know, the whole album rollout," she said, referring to her forthcoming sophomore album, "Am I the Drama?", out Friday. "People were coming at me very hard. You know, sometimes people love you, people hate you. And people was just saying very mean things about me.

"He makes me feel very confident," she added. "Feeling safe is feeling confident."
