Anthony Donatelli, a content creator and radio host, publicly scolded rapper Cardi B for swearing at his 4-year-old daughter in a recent Instagram Live video over the child’s NFL picks.
Cardi B, who’s dating star Patriots wideout Stefon Diggs, called out the young fan, Reese, saying, “F–k that bitch,” before she quickly apologized, as seen in a now-viral online video.
“That’s my daughter… She’s 4 years old,” Donatelli wrote, according to a screen-grab photo on social media.

Father calls out Cardi B after she swore at his 4-year-old who picks the football helmet of the team she thinks would win.

“This is a lighthearted, family-friendly video where she randomly picks football helmets. Please don’t direct profanity toward a child.”
Donatelli’s “Trust the Toddler” series features Reese choosing NFL helmets for her picks, which aren’t based on analysis and have many believing her winners are actually cursed to be losers.
Cardi B’s reaction apparently came despite Reese picking the Patriots over the Houston Texans in last weekend’s divisional round game. It does not appear as if Reese made a pick for the conference championship games on Sunday with the Patriots beating the Broncos, 10-7, in snowy Denver.
“That little white girl said we weren’t going to win. F–k that bitch! I told y’all,” Cardi said in the Instagram Live clip.
“I’m sorry!” she said repeatedly. “I didn’t mean to say that.”
The Grammy winner did not name anyone in the video.
After New England’s 28-16 win over Houston in the divisional round, Donatelli shared a photo of Reese with a Patriots logo and joked, “The curse has been reversed!”
Donatelli called Cardi B’s reaction “unfortunate” in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, which was published two days after the divisional round game.
“I’m not here to fight fire with fire. I’m not angry,” Donatelli said. “We don’t want anybody or anything to ruin what Reese and I have created and how we bond.”
Donatelli also said his family received death threats over his daughter’s football picks earlier in the 2025 season.
“It’s nuts,” Donatelli, a lifelong Steelers fan, said. “She’s obviously not an NFL analyst. She’s picking teams based on the color of her dress, or she’ll pick the Packers because she likes cheese. She just relates these silly little things as reasons why she picks certain teams.”
