<p>Italian artist AleXsandro Palombo, who is known for transforming 'The Simpsons' in his art, recently vowed to take legal action against Cardi B for recreating his work for Halloween. He claimed that the 'WAP' rapper was never authorised to use or recreate his art for her October 31 Instagram post, in which she is dressed as Marge Simpson in a cutout outfit that exposed her butt cleavage.</p>

<p>Palombo's claims come days after Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, did not mention the contemporary pop artist&nbsp;in her post but used a picture of his art. However, she did mention French designer Thierry Mugler, the designer whose dress inspired Palombo's work.</p>

<p>In an Instagram post, Palombo wrote that he contacted Cardi B but he did not receive a reply. "We wrote to Mrs Cardi B and collaborators how come that they never contacted us for authorisation to use the artwork and didn't mentioned or credit the artist, violating Meta policy about intellectual property rights. Still no answer (sic)," he wrote.</p>
