One day after announcing thatshe and husband Offset are not together anymore,Cardi Bturned up at E11EVEN in Miami for an appearance as part of the annual Art Basel international art fair.
Rocking a rainbow-colored wig and see-through long-sleeve black minidress with a black strapless bra, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper, 26, walked the red carpet before heading inside the event around 3 a.m. Thursday morning. She was not wearingthe $500,000 eight-carat tear-shaped engagement ringshe’s consistently had on her finger since the Migos rapper, 26,popped the questionback in October 2017.
Though audience members were told Cardi would be performing at the event, an onlooker tells PEOPLE that she instead mouthed the words to a couple of her songs as they played and took pictures.
“She wasn’t singing or anything,” the eventgoer, who also sent PEOPLE exclusive video from the event, said. “You could tell she wasn’t her usual energetic self. It’s like she was trying to put on a good face but she looked sad.”

The couple, who welcomed daughterKulture Kiariin July, remain cordial, she added.
“We are really good friends, and we are really good business partners — you know, he’s always somebody that I run to talk to, and we got a lot of love for each other — but things just haven’t been working out between us for a long time,” theInvasion of Privacyhitmaker added. “It’s nobody’s fault, I guess we just grew out of love, but we are not together anymore. It might take time to get a divorce, and I’m going to always have a lot of love for him because he is my daughter’s father.”
