Cardi B sure can draw a crowd -- even at a rodeo.
It was Houston's most anticipated show, and the singer took the stage shortly after 9 p.m. Friday wearing a hat, fringe and chaps that were adorned in pink and blue, the Houston Chronicle reported. Her hair matched her attire and flowed past her waist, the newspaper reported.

Cardi B gave the crowd a cross-section of her music, singing "Money Bag," "Drip" and "Bickenhead" from her debut album, "Invasion of Privacy," the Chronicle reported.
She dedicated “She Bad” to “all my pretty girls -- and the ugly ones, too,” the newspaper reported, before slowing down the frenetic pace with a version of “Ring.” She also sang her new single, “Please Me,” the newspaper reported.
Cardi B, who became the first solo female artist to win a Grammy Award for best rap album, bantered with the crowd between songs.
"The purpose of the rodeo is to collect money, to give scholarships out," Cardi B told the crowd at one point. "Any job you pick, whether it's a doctor ... or a … stripper, you gonna need some education."
