Azealia Banks doesn’t hold back on Twitter and apparently she’s very much the same in real life too.
The rapper and singer is being accused of getting violent on a recent flight.
TMZ writes:
A passenger sitting next to Banks tells TMZ, when the Delta flight landed just before 1:00 AM Tuesday, Azealia made a beeline for the front door. She had been sitting in seat 6A but a French couple in the 3rd row was blocking her exit as they pulled their luggage from the overhead bin.
The eyewitness says Azealia tried to squeeze by the couple when the French man put his hand out. Azealia, we’re told, went nuts. The eyewitness says she spit in the man’s face, punched him in the face and clawed at his shirt.
At that point we’re told the flight attendant grabbed Azealia’s bag and told her to calm down. She lost her balance, fell to the seat, stood up and then a tug-of-war over the luggage ensued. This is where the video begins.
Azealia demands to take her bag and leave, and eventually calls the flight attendant a “f***ing f***ot” — a homophobic slur.
We’re told the co-pilot came out and told Azealia the police were called. She then ran off the plane, dropping her cell phone.
Police caught up with Azealia at baggage claim and spoke with witnesses as well, but the French couple decided not to press charges because they were here on holiday and didn’t want the hassle.
Azealia claims the French man actually hit her in the face. She adds, “I don’t tolerate b*tcha*sness and I don’t tolerate men putting their hands on me.”

Bless her heart. She’s always angry. Always.
*giggles*
So her being Bi justifies her using a homophobic slur? She is so ignorant, I swear. I’m sick of this girl.
This is why I don’t support her anymore.
That’s the equivalent of a white person saying, “I’m not rascist, my best friend is black.” I’m so sick of this troll.
Angie, that is exactly what I was thinking! Honestly I do think she is talented but that attitude of hers…..
She’s very ignorant. That’s why I never put on a cape and defended her during the Iggy stuff.
Sigh…
I just wish she would get some kind of therapy. I applauded her fearlessness at first, but now it’s so transparent something is off with her.
Between her and Iggy I can’t decide which one I can’t stand more.
It’s still Iggy for me.
She’s her own worst enemy because she has that whole me against the world mindset.
I have a feeling she’s going to try the wrong person one day.
Who knows if he hit her first or not but what we do know is Azealia is always in some mess. It’s hard to defend her now.
True.
She is so adversarial everything is not a battle she has to learn that.
This b-tch just won’t sit her a-s down somewhere. And she wants black people to ride with her when she has said some f-cked sh-t about us. F-ck her. Let her fight her own battles.
I wish I cared. I gave up on her already.
I don’t get why she was rushing to run off the plane in the first place did she have to take a shyt??. If she would’ve just waited patiently like an ADULT I do believe all that extra shyt would’ve been avoided
I wish people would stop reporting on this fool.
Every week it’s something with this young woman. She has a lot of demons.
She just can’t help herself.
The thirst for constant attention is real with this one.
