Cardi B and sister Hennessy Carolina ask court to dismiss defamation case against them Entertainment Sat, Feb 27, 2021 Cardi B and her sister Hennessy Carolina reportedly filed a motion to dismiss the defamation suit Peter Caliendo, Pauline Caliendo and Manuel Alarcon filed against them in New York last year following a squabble in the Hamptons. The Grammy-winner was named in a lawsuit last summer, after a beach altercation with a group of 'racist MAGA supporters.' According to the docs, obtained by a media outlet, Cardi and Hennessy claim their legal foes are only seeking a windfall from them because they are celebrities ... and they're hoping a judge sees it the same way they do.
