Cardi B In Talks To Join Nanny Remake With Fran Drescher

A TV show could be Cardi B’s next venture. During a visit to ‘The Rea'” Fran Drescher mentioned in the interview that she would be interested in casting the rapper as her daughter in the reboot of her sitcom The Nanny. Drescher told ExtraTV that she’s in talks with Cardi’s team about the potential project. “I’m talking to her representation, it’s really getting me excited. It’s fresh and it could be super fun.” The actress said she first got the idea after Cardi wore a head-to-toe cheetah ensemble for Milan’s Fashion Week back in September and credited Drescher for her inspo. “She started it because she kind of paid homage to me, putting our pictures side by side when she was wearing animal print and it was me in animal from The Nanny and that just went viral,” Drescher continued, “That got my creative juices going.”

Earlier this month in an appearance on PeopleTV’s Chatter, Drescher said she’s on board with a potential revival of the sitcom despite little interest from networks. She and the show’s co-creator Peter Marc Jacob, who is also her ex-husband, were discussing bringing the comedy back to the small screen. That’s when she mentioned she thinks Cardi would be “great” as her daughter.“ She’s got a funny voice, too,” she added. “What kind of a great mother/daughter would we be? Amazing, I think.” Watch the full interview below:
