In March of 2019, the internet was #SurvivingCardiB. The hashtag, an obvious play on Lifetime’s Surviving R. Kelly docu-series, was in response to an old video of Cardi admitting to drugging and robbing men back in her dancing days as a means of survival. Before the cancel could set in, a bunch of people said that Cardi’s behavior, while not ok, wasn’t in the same strastophere as R. Kelly’s crimes and that other dancers did this too.

Unbeknownst to your sisters in scam, they were right - other dancers have done this too. Rosie Keo and Samantha Barbash not only drugged men to rob them, but created an empire out of it. A 2015 article for The Cut broke down the story and inspired the new Hustler’s movie - due out in September of this year. But before we get into the movie (where CONSTANCE WU IS GOING TO PLAY A DANCER!), let’s talk about the story itself.

This week we talk about about the women behind the Hustlers scam, our predictions about the film (CARDI, J.LO, LIZZO, AGAIN, CONSTANCE WU) and more!

Cassandra's Overall Scam Score: 3

Taylor's Overall Scam Score: 2
