Azealia Banks Changes Her Mind

Apparently Azealia Banks is no longer pressing charges against Russell Crow.

As we reported recently, Azealia claims Russell choked her and called her the N-word before throwing her out of one of his parties.

Although she still claims the actor went off on her, she claims she won’t press charges because she doesn’t want the publicity.

Azealia filed a police report for battery on Sunday (October 16) but she has now revealed she is no longer planning to press charges against the “Gladiator” star because she wants the drama to be over so she can focus on her music.

“Realistically, to be honest, I really don’t want to. Because I just don’t want this in the media,” she told Us Weekly. “I want my music out. I just want to f##king put my music out… I just want my music to shine. I don’t want to be dealing with another episode, another thing, another whatever.”

Despite this comment, Azealia is still determined to get an apology from Russell, after making repeated calls on social media and in the press for him to say sorry after the incident.

“(Russell) feels that he did nothing wrong, so I’m just like, ‘OK, if you want to pay a bunch of litigators and a bunch of people to apologize to me, then I guess that’s what you want to do,’” she adds. “You could apologize to me for free now and make this all go away.”
