Their music video for Finesse (Remix) dropped earlier this month.
And on Sunday night, Cardi B, 25, and Bruno Mars, 32, delivered a rollicking performance of the song at the Grammy Awards at Madison Square Garden.
The pair’s vibrantly colorful outfits were redolent of the original music video, which was itself influenced by the look of the iconic 1990s sketch show In Living Color.

Watch full video below:
Cardi, who shot to fame last year on the tide of her hit single Bodak Yellow, showed off her legs in a pair of high-waisted blue, crimson, yellow and green shorts.
The Bronx-born rapper matched her bottoms with a striped bra-lette, adding a splash of glitz with a massive Moschino medallion and bell-like drop earrings.
Letting her wavy black hair fall free behind her, she popped on a cloth hat that featured a drooping brim.

In addition to a bulky watch, Cardi was wearing Offset’s ring, for which TMZ reported he shelled out $550,000.
For part of the time she spent onstage, she had also slipped on a coat matching the bra-lette and trousers – and the jacket was so long, it trailed behind her on the floor.

A massive green peace sign was emblazoned on the back of it, and the camera caught sight of it at the beginning of the performance, as Cardi stormed down a flight of stairs onto the stage.
Yet the wrap soon came off, and she thundered through an energetic performance, at one point pressing her hand into Bruno’s chest and pushing him back for a few Moonwalked steps.
Bruno himself was wearing a white hoodie, and pulled a canary orange knit short-sleeved sweater on over it.

He and two backup dancers whirled through a bit of choreography as a trio, before they – and a slew of other hoofers – being joined by Cardi at their section of the stage.
Finesse initially appeared as a solo effort by Bruno on his album 24K Magic in 2016 – but Cardi went on to remix it, and the pair of them collaborated on the music video for the newer version.
Shortly after the video dropped, Bruno praised its influence, In Living Color, tweeting: ‘This video is dedicated to one my favorite T.V shows of all time’.
