The Cardi B Trial was ICONIC- Part 1

Author: This Feels Criminal | Formerly Killer Queens November 5, 2025 Duration: 1:14:13
Cardi B’s 2025 courtroom showdown with former Beverly Hills security guard Emani Ellis was supposed to be about an alleged “violent attack.” What we got instead? Chaos. From witnesses who “weren’t there – except maybe in spirit,” to whether or not Cardi B does in fact have TWO HANDS.And Cardi B takes the stand… and proceeds to annihilate the chaos of the plaintiff’s case with a single, iconic “She looks… security heavy.” In this first half of our two-part breakdown, Tyrella and Nikita unpack the plaintiff’s side – the claims, the testimony, the courtroom absurdities, and why the jury looked confused before Cardi B even spoke a word.

You might remember Tyrella and Nikita from their previous work as the Killer Queens. After eight years and hundreds of cases covered, their perspective has fundamentally shifted, leading to a thoughtful evolution of the true crime conversation. This new chapter, titled This Feels Criminal: A True Crime Podcast (Formerly Killer Queens), is for an audience that has matured alongside them, moving beyond the straightforward narrative to ask deeper, more difficult questions about the stories we think we know. Grounded in a shared history of growing up with Dateline and the early internet, the hosts now approach each case with a deconstructed viewpoint, examining the societal and human layers often glossed over. The podcast delves into the historical context surrounding crimes, exploring how time and place shape tragedy. Listeners will hear nuanced discussions that prioritize perspective over sensationalism, focusing on the complex "why" behind the "what." It’s a natural progression for hosts and audience alike, offering a more considered space within a crowded genre. Each episode of this podcast builds on a foundation of extensive research and lived experience, aiming to understand the full weight of the story, because there’s always more to it.
