Cardi B, Maduka Okoye Turn Heads At Paris Fashion Week Show
American rapper Cardi B and Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye made a stylish appearance together at the Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday, attracting widespread attention online.
The pair attended the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2026 Haute Couture Show, where Okoye was seen helping Cardi B to her seat amid flashing cameras before they sat side by side to watch the runway presentation.
They were also spotted at the Messika presentation during the fashion showcase in Paris.
Videos of the duo quickly went viral on TikTok, X and other social media platforms, with fans commenting on their relaxed interaction and fashionable appearance.
Cardi B’s striking red outfit at the Haute Couture Show was also widely praised as one of the standout looks from the event.
The public appearance sparked speculation online about the nature of their relationship, particularly given the rapper’s high-profile dating history.
However, neither Cardi B nor Okoye has commented publicly, and there is no verified evidence that they are romantically involved.
Okoye, who plays for Udinese in Italy’s Serie A and the Super Eagles, has recently gained increased attention beyond football for his looks, fashion appearances and social media presence.
Born in Düsseldorf, Germany, to a Nigerian father and a mother of German and French heritage, the 26-year-old made his senior debut for Nigeria in 2019.
Standing at 1.98 metres (6ft 6in), the goalkeeper began his professional career in Germany before moving to Dutch side Sparta Rotterdam, where he was named the club’s Player of the Season for the 2020/21 campaign.
His performances earned him a move to Watford in 2022 before he joined Udinese the following year, where he has continued to establish himself in Italy’s top flight and as one of Nigeria’s leading goalkeepers.
