Azealia Banks Breaks Down As She Relives Violent Row With Russell Crowe

Controversial rapper Azealia Banks broke down on television yesterday, as she gave her side of the story to her recent spat with Russell Crowe.

The musician was at a dinner party hosted in Russell’s hotel suite when he personally threw her out when she was reported to have been behaving ‘obnoxiously’.

She told Us Weekly magazine that he choked, pushed and spat at her to get her to leave the room.

“Even if I were being erratic, you should have enough sense to have me escorted out properly and keep your hands and your spit to yourself,” she said.

But appearing on Access Hollywood yesterday, she said she was sick of always getting blamed for these dramas, and this incident, in particular, left her feeling ‘humiliated’.

Claiming that Russell mocked her music career, Azealia said the incident escalated from there – and that he suddenly 'snapped’.

“Who knows? Maybe it was the moonshine? Maybe it was the rejection? Maybe it was the jokes?”

“Every time something like this happens, I’m always like being blamed for like wanting this kind of attention. Like, who f**king wants to tell someone they got spat on? That’s humiliating. I’m just really, really humiliated.”

Despite threatening to get her lawyers involved, the 212 singer says that she’d rather shift the focus back to her music.

Talking about the potential legal action, Azaelia told Us Weekly: “Realistically, to be honest, I really don’t want to. Because I just don’t want this in the media. I want my music out. I just want to f***ing 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.”

However, the controversial rapper says that she does expect an apology from the actor despite reports that she was the one at fault.
