Cardi B has a succinct response to ‘YOU’ star Penn Badgley’s appreciation

‘YOU’ famed actor Penn Badgley aka Joe Goldberg won the heart of American rapper Cardi B after he praised her relationship with her fans in a viral clip surfacing online. 

While chatting about how his character Joe revealed the unsettling nature of social media, Penn Badgley commended those who can use it as a tool because they have genuine relationships with their audiences.

“You see me, when I try to do something on social media it’s pathetic. I think about it too much, therefore when I do use it actually lacks that authenticity… that fluidity,” said Badgley.

“So I really appreciate people who have this sort of, totally second-nature relationship with [social media] because that’s when you have something meaningful to post then it really comes true and people appreciate it all the more.”

“Cardi B is such a perfect example of that,” the You star added further. “She has such an authentic relationship and to me, it’s an incredibly nuanced place to be… and that’s why people like her so much.”

In response, Cardi B was left in awe as Penn turned out to be her fan. “OOOOMMFFFGGGGGG HE KNOWS ME !!!” Cardi B tweeted with eight shock emojis. “OMMMGGGG!!!!!! Yoooo like I’m famous famous,” she wrote via her Twitter. 

“I–” Penn Badgley said in response.
