CONGRATS Cardi B!!!!

In the past, country music icon Garth Brooks held the all-time attendance record at Houston’s rodeo. But after selling out her RodeoHouston debut in 40 minutes for a jaw-dropping 75,580 attendees, it’s safe to say that Cardi B is breaking more than records these days—she’s breaking boundaries. While performing in front of nearly 76,000 people would give most artists an anxiety attack, the “Please Me” rapper admits that she’d be in the same boat had she not drawn courage from the Queen of Columbia herself, the late singer Selena.

In an Instagram video she posted to her 41 million followers, she revealed the source of her superpowers.

“I was so nervous to perform in front of 70,000-plus people, but when I saw this picture,” she divulged, pointing to a portrait of the “I Could Fall in Love” songstress. “Like, out of all the outfits that she wore, for me to see this picture with this outfit—this was the inspiration for ‘Please Me’—I knew I was gonna be alright.”

And after the record-breaking show she gave Houston Friday night, I think it’s safe to say that “be alright” is an understatement.
