Even for Cardi B, whose every move is watched by millions of Internet eyes, this silent atmospheric chicken feet meat sucking video — shot close up and intimate — is crazy popular. Even Cardi’s tongue-wagging, pink sheer fringe bodysuit dance drop, a viral hit (see below), got only 8.6 million views in its first 12 days online.
Yet when she sucked those chicken feet with the camera mere inches away, it took just a day for that mesmerizing video to hit more than 11 million views, many repeat views because it’s so strangely compelling. It’s intimate, silent, human… it’s got food, sauce, tongue, lips and her giant challenging eyes — in other words, Cardi B hungrily sucking the meat off of chicken feet is Instagram magic, Instagram gold.
