Cardi B didn't seem too concerned about her court appearance as she strolled in, more than three hours late, in a low-cut power suit and sky-high heels.
Dressed in an all-pink ensemble, the 'Press' rapper strutted her way into the Queens Criminal Court in New York City on Friday.
The entertainer wore a $4790 pink Salvatore Ferragamo pantsuit and sparkling pink fingernails to Friday's hearing. Her jet-black tresses flowed effortlessly down to her waist.
She accessorized with fierce hot-pink Christian Louboutin stilettos, worth around $700, and a taupe-colored Chanel bag which costs $7300.
Prior to her arrival to court, the rapper posted an Instagram live video where her fans got a unique view on the singer thanks to her plunging outfit.
She also posted a video with her new song.
'My face got maaaa fat, she said in the post caption. 'Anyways PRESS PRESS PRESS.'
And as she headed through security, a fan reportedly asked: 'Is this what you meant by no press?'
Cardi B shrugged at the Press reference, Page Six reports.
During her court appearance, however, the 'Bodak Yellow' rapper did not speak. She is scheduled to appear back in court on August 9.
Prosecutors have also said that they would like to present the case to a grand jury after 'further investigation.'
The conditions of her parole were continued, including an order of protection for the complainants.
Fans followed Cardi B out of the courtroom on Friday, trying to get photos. She hugged a woman who appeared to be an acquaintance but did not speak to anyone else.

Cardi B - whose birth name is Belcalis Marlenis Almanzar - decided not to plead guilty to misdemeanor assault to the third degree in connection to claims that she ordered the attack of two bartenders at a New York strip club.
Cardi would not have had to do any jail time by accepting the deal.
The case would have also been completely dismissed if she had met certain conditions, The Blast reports.
Cardi faces a misdemeanor charge of reckless endangerment and assault for the August 2018 incident at the Angel's Strip Club in Queens.
Sisters Baddie Gi and Jade, who work as bartenders at the strip club, claimed the rapper ordered an attack on the women because she believed one of them had an affair with her husband Offset.
The sisters alleged that a member of Cardi B's entourage threw bottles, chairs, and hookahs in the club at them.
Cardi was allegedly caught on camera tossing an ice bucket at the women. The songstress surrendered to police in October.

Cardi B's court appearance came just a day after the rapper made another Instagram Live to defend her cosmetic work.
'I do whatever the f*** I want to do with my body, I don't have the time of day like you do.
'My job as an entertainer is a 24-hour job, bro. So no, I don't have time to work out. I wanted specific things that I know that no matter how much I work out won't get fixed.'
Cardi went on to explain that the recent surgery on her breasts is her doctor's main concern, and revealed that some of her stitches are yet to heal.
Her doctor warned her she needs to take time off like he told her to. 'My breasts gotta f**kin heal,' she added.
Cardi continued her video leaving her fans in no doubt that cash is her main motivation.
'I hate cancelling shows because I love money. I'm a money addict. I get paid a lot of money, a lot of money for these shows. A lot of money. I'm cancelling millions of dollars in shows, but health is wealth so I have to do what I have to do,' she said.
