Azealia Banks has been dropped from a U.K. festival after she lashed out at Zayn Malik in a foul-mouthed and homophobic Twitter rant.
As we noted, the former One Direction member released his new video for the single “Like I Would” on May 10 and when Banks saw it she accused him of plagiarizing one of her previous videos.
"Damn Zayn be mood boarding the f--k out of me" she wrote on social media and shared stills from both of their videos. "I'm not mad about this though,” adding, “Zayn is a cutie pie."
When Malik responded to her and asked why she was saying things about him, Banks went off with several vicious tweets.
"U.S.A IS ABOUT TO TEACH YOU WHO NOT TO F--K WITH!!" she wrote. "When your entire extended family has been obliterated by good ol the U.S of A will you still be trying to act like a white boy pretending to be black? Do you understand that you are a sand n----- who emulates white boys' renditions of black male hood? Do you know how lost and culture less you are?"
Zayn then tweeted back that his music was better than hers, which left her continuing with the nasty tirade.
"Dude, I make better music than you. Simmer down with that fake white boy rebellion and that wannabe beiber (sic) swag," she replied. "Lol u a bitch n----- for even responding like that. Keep sucking this yung rapunxel d--k u hairy curry scented bitch."
She later went after Malik’s fans and people in the U.K. in general, so organizers for the Rinse FM's Born & Bred Festival announced Wednesday that she has been dropped from the lineup because of her offensive comments.
Update: In addition to being dropped from the festival,on Wednesday Banks was also banned from Twitter as the site suspends any accounts in which users engage in abusive behavior.
