Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion have a lot to celebrate. Breaking the internet with the release of their new song and video "WAP," it seems as though nobody could stop talking about the female empowerment anthem. While it had its haters and lovers, everybody had an opinion about the video, which has already racked up over 100 million views.
