For even the most renown name, attending the MET Gala is often an overwhelming experience. Hence, it’s little surprise that newcomer Azealia Banks was in relative awe as she arrived at one of fashion’s biggest nights.
Sporting a custom-made ensemble courtesy of Alexander Wang (who she poses with above), the ’212′ rapper (and Lil Kim’s latest rival) told an interviewer on arrival that she was in “awe” and “just happy to be there”.
Peep another shot of Banks, who is slated to perform at the event, below…

Told ya’ll homegirl needed 4 more people on that ‘glam squad’
She should have slapped the taste out of the chick that put that weave on her head, smh. Can’t Kanye with his fruity self hook this girl up?
And that dress is all wrong, why does it look like she’s about to work a corner?

Banks is cute. I love her, but I don’t care for the weave. That girl is winning because she can rock a stage, she can rap, and she’s not interesting in changing to “cross over” the cross over audience is coming to HER and she’s going to have longevity and a smashing career that will outlast Nicki Minaj and outshine her.
Not trying to shade Nicki or her fans, either. Just Sayin’!

Her her is terrible! If she want’s to go natural then go natural, if she want’s fake hair then do fkin fake hair, NOT a mixture of both! Her dress looks so cheap! Yes she is talented, but in the world we live today, talent in not enough, looks matter too!
