Offset is "putting it all out on the table," as he told Ellen during his Friday appearance on the "Ellen" show. The 27-year-old Migos rapper, born Kiari Kendrell Cephus, told DeGeneres about last year's brief split from wife Cardi B, from whom he was briefly estranged over what was reportedly infidelity on his part. "I love my wife so it's serious, not a game to me," he said. Offset told DeGeneres he decided to own his mistakes with Cardi: "I stepped to it as a man and said, 'I'm wrong.' I stepped to it as a man, and you don't have to take me back but I just want you to know I love you and I care."
