The afterparty scene was POPPIN' last night as celebs hit the NYC streets to turn up after the 2018 MTV VMAs. See what Cardi B, Jennifer Lopez, Nicki Minaj and more inside...
Cardi B's official post-baby debut was majorly successful!
The new mom won not 1, not 2, but 3 MTV Video Music Awards last night. She won the "Song of Summer" award for "I Like It" before the show even started. Then, she hit the stage twice to accept the Best New Artist award and Best Collaboration with Jennifer Lopez and DJ Khaled.
To celebrate, the "Bodak Yellow" rapper hit the party scene with her husband Offset, his Migos bandmate Quavo, and her sister Hennessy Carolina at Atlantic Records' afterparty at TAO Downtown. Cardi and Offset were also seen arriving at 1 Oak for another afterparty.
Watch baby Kulture's parents turn up below:
Fun times.
After opening the show and hitting the party scene, Bardi was HUNGRY! So, where does she go? Mickey D's please!
Bardi and her boo stopped at McDonald's for a burger and a drink:
Cardi B may have just won 3 VMAs but she's still a regular degular shmegular

This is why we love her. A whole mood.
At another party...
Jennifer Lopez also had a big night being honored with the Michael Jackson Vanguard Video Award, the highest honor of the night. Chick slayed the stage, won the Best Collaboration Award with Cardi and Khaled, and then she got ready to celebrate!
Not yo mama!
The 49-year-old entertainer kept her Versace theme going. She rocked a Versace dress on the carpet and a Versace ensemble during her performance.
Of course, she was showered with kisses from BAE. Alex Rodriguez was definitely her biggest fan last night.
Night School actress Tiffany Haddish was also in the mix, sparkling in a silver sheer bodysuit and cutting up:
Ha! Can you handle it Maxwell?
A-Rod can. Watch JLo back it up on her man below:
Get it.

After winning the Best Hip Hop Video award, Nicki Minaj linked up with her girls for a Hennessy-filled night over dinner. Watch her act up with her girls above.
Before she made it to dinner...
She locked lips with Madonna. Ugh.
Red carpet host Terrence J was also in the mix after putting in work for the show:
Also...
Looks like rapper G-Eazy and Halsey are back together, two months after announcing they were broken up. The love birds were spotted holding hands as they were leaving 1Oak - where Travis Scott (seen below) held his afterparty - around 4AM. While they didn't arrive together, they hopped in the same car and left together.
