Jimmie Allen is the special guest on a new installment of rapper Cardi B’s Messenger series, Cardi Tries. Clips from the show premiered on People on Friday.

In each installment, Cardi goes out of her comfort zone to try something new: In this case, taking line-dancing classes and a spin on a mechanical bull.

The line-dancing part went smoothly enough — “Does Reba know how to do this?” Cardi asked, before explaining that she really wanted to give the dance her best shot — but things got a little dicey when it came time to climb aboard the bull.

Perhaps partially due to the whiskey the pair had imbibed earlier in the day, Cardi found her bull-riding experience a little overwhelming. “I’m so scared! I don’t wanna ride no more, I’m drunky,” Cardi remarked from her seat on top of the bull.

Jimmie — who’s been gamely cheering her on for her whole ride — replied to Cardi’s protest that she was getting dizzy. “That’ll happen with whiskey and bull riding. That’s what makes it fun,” he said.

“That’s not fun. That’s nauseating,” Cardi shot back.

When he’s not bull-riding or line-dancing, Jimmie is busy gearing up for a big summer. He’s currently on the road for his first headlining tour, which will conclude in August at his second-annual hometown festival, the Bettie James Fest, in Delaware.
