Cardi B blamed the government for a stage fall during a concert in Las Vegas, while elsewhere, Ukraine's former energy minister was arrested attempting to cross the border, and Prince Andrew faced scrutiny over sharing a Treasury document. These events, along with other developments, dominated headlines on February 12, 2026.
During a performance at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, rapper Cardi B, whose full name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, fell backward off a chair while singing "Thotiana." Videos circulating online captured the moment, after which Cardi B pointed at the chair and told the audience, "That was the government," according to Fox News.
Meanwhile, in Ukraine, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) arrested former Energy Minister German Galushchenko as he attempted to cross the country's border. The arrest, part of the "Midas case," followed Galushchenko's resignation in November amid a large-scale corruption scandal, Al Jazeera reported.
Across the Atlantic, Prince Andrew faced further allegations of misusing his public role. Emails published in The Telegraph suggested that in 2010, the then Prince Andrew shared a Treasury briefing on banking problems in Iceland with Jonathan Rowland, a business contact. Rowland's father, David Rowland, later took over part of a failing Icelandic bank, according to BBC Business. This incident added to the pressure on the former prince.
In other news, former U.S. President Donald Trump was seen golfing with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, along with college football coaching legends Urban Meyer and Nick Saban. The meeting sparked interest, given the past rift between Trump and DeSantis, who challenged Trump in the 2023 primary, as reported by Fox News.
Finally, in Tumbler Ridge, Canada, the community rallied together after a school shooting. Jim Caruso, who traveled 700 miles to offer support, said, "I wanted to be here to bring some level of comfort. I wanted to hug people, pray for them and, most importantly, to cry with them," according to The Guardian.
