On the surface, the feud between former City Girls member JT and rap‑star Cardi B appears to be a typical hip‑hop beef: diss tracks, social media shots, partner comparisons. But as of September 2025 the dispute has escalated into a full‑blown public spectacle — dragging in NFL wide‑receiver Stefon Diggs, allegations of sexual assault, LGBTQ+ identity claims, and insinuations around secret relationships. At the centre: JT’s explosive social media posts accusing Diggs of sexual assault and outing him as “gay” (including claims of a “trans girlfriend” of another artist) — and Cardi’s equally fierce counter‑assaults.

The origins: diss track, partner digs, and old grievances

The spark for the current round of drama came when Cardi B released her album Am I the Drama?, including the track “Magnet,” which contains pointed lyrical jabs at JT and her partner, rap‑artist Lil Uzi Vert. According to media reports, Cardi’s lyrics claim that JT is disloyal, fake, and share a partner’s bags — and reference sexual behaviour in a derogatory way (for instance, the lyric “My n***a cheat, but I don’t stick no dildos in his ass, bitch”).

JT fired back swiftly. She reposted an interview with stylist‑blogger Tasha K interviewing a man named Chris Blake Griffith, who claims that Diggs sexually assaulted him — including alleged drugging, exposing himself, and threatening to kill him when advances were rejected.
On the social platform X (formerly Twitter), JT went further: “CARDI B BABY FATHER A GAY MAN!!!!!!!!!! Not because of how he dress or express his self but because CHRIS said it out of his mouth!!!! JUSTICE FOR CHRIS I stand with the gays!!!!!” she wrote.
In the heat of the moment, accusations began flying about secret relationships, abortions, and even the notion of a “secret trans girlfriend” of Lil Uzi — though this particular claim is more in the realm of insinuation than confirmed fact.

What JT is alleging

JT’s public position can be summarised thus:

She has amplified Griffith’s interview, publicising the allegation that Stefon Diggs sexually assaulted a man and threatened him.

She has made statements pointing to Diggs’ sexuality, asserting his child‑father status with Cardi B but also claiming he is secretly gay. “Not because of how he dress … but because CHRIS said it out of his mouth,” she wrote.

She is defending Lil Uzi Vert against Cardi’s lyrical attacks — in part by positioning Uzi as legitimate and undermining Cardi’s credibility. “Yes my man does this! … His style is what made him LIL UZI!!!! … We are talking about Chris right now. FOCUS!” JT tweeted.

Implicitly — though less overtly reported — is the claim that there is a “secret trans girlfriend” of Lil Uzi or some hidden sexual identity component being weaponised in the beef. (While the media headlines you asked about invoke this, specific credible reporting of that exact claim remains limited or unverified.)

How Cardi B is responding

Cardi B has not stayed silent. Her responses have included:

Denying the allegations: “Chris lied because he was stealing and got caught.. there’s receipts for that. He lied on Gervonta Davis too and changed the story 1000 times.”

Turning the tables onto JT: Cardi accused JT of spreading “fake tea” about abortions and alleged that Uzi “made her abort every time.”

Publicly referencing JT’s diss track and branding her a “fraud,” “non‑rapping hoe,” and “ungrateful” in response to Cardi’s own reels.

Why the Diggs angle is so explosive

The reason the Diggs allegations (and JT’s linking of them into the rap feud) have generated so much traction is multi‑fold:

High‑profile names. Stefon Diggs is a household NFL star; Cardi B is one of the biggest rappers in the world; JT and Lil Uzi are also massive in hip‑hop culture. When these spheres collide, it draws media attention.

Sexual assault claims. The allegation by Griffith is serious: drugging, unwanted exposure, threat of death. While unverified publicly, such claims raise questions about athlete conduct and accountability.

LGBTQ+ dynamics. JT’s commentary centres around defending “the gays” and suggesting a secret gay identity for Diggs — turning a heterosexual partner narrative into something more complex. The addition of “secret trans girlfriend” insinuations further complicate how sexuality and identity are being weaponised in the feud.

Transgressive use of partner‑digs. The mention in Cardi’s lyrics of sexual acts (some taken as homophobic jabs) plus JT’s response around Uzi and Diggs signals underlying tensions around gender, sexual expression, fashion, and what it means to be “masculine” or “queer” in the rap world.

Clout and stakes. Each side has reputational and personal stakes — for JT, defending her partner Uzi and defending her credibility; for Cardi, maintaining her star status and protecting her partner Diggs’ image; for Diggs, personally dealing with multiple allegations and public scrutiny.

The “secret trans girlfriend” angle — myth or emerging fact?

One of the more eyebrow‑raising aspects of the coverage is the assertion that Lil Uzi Vert (or Diggs) had a “secret trans girlfriend.” However:

A scan of available news articles does not provide a credible, mediated source that confirms that specific claim with named individuals or verifiable documentation.

The claim appears to be part of the broader war of words — weaponised to sow scandal rather than to report an established fact.

It merges into broader tropes around “secret” LGBTQ+ relationships in hip‑hop, which historically have been treated as rumor and conjecture.

The presence of the wording in your prompt (“secret trans girlfriend”) suggests that this may be partially conflated with other identity/gender‑related jabs in the JT vs Cardi B feud rather than a substantiated news item.

Thus, while it may be part of the narrative being floated in social‑media chatter, it remains unverified and should be framed as an allegation or insinuation rather than established truth.

Where things stand now

As of late September 2025,no public legal or official response from Stefon Diggs’ side appears to have substantiated the assault claims; Diggs’ representatives reportedly have not issued detailed comment.

The feud between JT and Cardi B continues to escalate: diss tracks, social‑media posts, legal threats.

The focusing in media reports is more on the drama and social‑media spectacle than on deeper investigative truth‑finding (for example, independent verification of the assault claims, witness statements, legal filings).

The intersection of hip‑hop culture, sexual identity, and athlete misconduct is gaining attention — this case is being cited as emblematic of those converging pressures.

Broader implications

The saga has implications beyond who is right or wrong in this dispute:

Hip‑hop and identity politics. In an era where fashion, gender fluidity and queer identity are increasingly visible in hip‑hop (and met with both support and backlash), the acid‑tongued nature of the JT vs Cardi B feud signals how sexuality can become a weapon in rap beefs.

Athlete‑entertainer crossovers. When a star athlete like Diggs is drawn into entertainment‑industry feuds, the boundaries of sport, music and social media blur — raising governance questions about image, contracts, endorsement risk.

Public‑relations risk. For all parties, the risk of reputational damage is high: if allegations are proven or widely believed, sponsors, labels and teams may react.

Social‑media virality vs. deep truth‑seeking. Much of what circulates here is screenshots, insults, tweets. Fewer facets of the story have undergone journalistic verification. It reflects how modern celebrity controversies often spread faster than they can be verified.

LGBTQ+ disclosure and outing. JT’s direct declaration of “baby father a gay man” is a rare case in which someone is being publicly labelled in a high‑profile way. This raises ethical questions around outing someone, claiming ‘justice for Chris’, and the line between advocacy and smear.

What to watch next

Will Diggs or his legal team issue a detailed response or file a defamation suit?

Will the alleged victim, Chris Blake Griffith, pursue legal action or provide further evidence?

Will JT or Cardi B be subject to defamation claims for the many allegations they’ve made publicly?

Will any high‑profile collaborator, sponsor or label sever ties as a result of the scandal?

Will any mainstream media outlet conduct deeper investigative reporting (documents, court filings, witness interviews) beyond the social‑media content?

Caution and context

It’s vital to emphasise:

Many of the core claims remain unverified (e.g., the alleged assault, the “secret trans girlfriend” claim, explicit confidential documentation) and should not be treated as proven fact.

Social‑media posts and diss‑track lyrics are intended as entertainment, stirring narrative, or promotion — they may distort, exaggerate, or misrepresent.

Outing someone’s sexuality without their consent (even if you believe it to be true) is ethically fraught and can have serious personal consequences.

The culture of rap beef is rooted in hyperbole, insult and provocation — some of what is said may be designed for shock value rather than accuracy.

Conclusion

The JT vs Cardi B feud has, unexpectedly, drawn the spotlight onto Stefon Diggs and sexual‑identity allegations in a way few predicted. What started as lyrical jabs morphed into social‑media jabs and then into claims of sexual assault and hidden relationships. The provocative wording — “exposing Lil Uzi’s secret trans girlfriend” or declaring Justin father a maybe‑gay partner — has traction, but remains largely unverified and sensational.
