10 Reasons Fast & Furious 9 Is A Cinematic Car Wreck

10. That Cardi B Cameo Though...

Cardi B's cameo as Leysa, a woman whom Dom has a history with, is a small scene, but it's still a dreadful one and despite being so short, it still manages to linger in your mind once the credits roll.

Musician cameos are something of a tradition for this franchise, but the ones in other films were just fine since they were generally background figures, making their presence far less distracting. In contrast, Leysa actually affects the plot since she rescues Dom from the villain's clutches, so this cameo is a hell of a lot more jarring.

It's also a very badly-written scene that's cringe-worthy and unfunny as all hell, making it one of the worst moments from any of the last few Fast and Furious movies.

Apparently Leysa is the sister of Cara Mirtha (Mirtha Michelle), a minor character from Fast & Furious (2009). It's hard to see why the writers wanted to make this callback to the creative low-point of the series but then again, most of the creative choices in this movie are pretty inexplicable.
