Azealia Banks has been called a liar by sources close to Russell Crowe who claim she invented the incident she says went down at a party she attended last week.
The gifted rapper claims she was tossed out of the party by Crowe himself before he spat at her and called her a n******.
Problematic, as it mirrors an incident Crowe was involved in with black members of the New Zealand Warriors.
Full story below…
TMZ reports:
According to eyewitness accounts the trouble started when Azealia laughed out loud at Russell’s music selection, and then called him and at least one other guest, “boring white men.” We’re told a female guest jumped to Russell’s defense and suggested Banks pipe down.
Instead, we’re told she made an insane speech/threat to Crowe and the woman …”You would love it if I broke my glass, stabbed you guys in the throat, and blood would squirt everywhere like some real Tarantino s***.” Then for good measure, witnesses say she dropped a few n-bombs … yet Crowe remained surprisingly calm.
We’re told Azealia reached for her glass, cocked it back … and that’s when Russell had enough — he grabbed her in a bear hug and carried her out of the suite. He then called hotel security guards who removed Azealia from the grounds.
Four eye witnesses support Crowe’s side of the story.
Alas, that’s done little to silence those who question the authenticity of the actor’s pals.
Why?
In 2002, the actor arrived at the Japanese restaurant Zuma in London where he spotted members of the New Zealand Warriors rugby team.
Once there, Crowe is said to have hurled cruel insults at the team’s black members by referring to them as “darkies.”
This enraged the team’s millionaire manager Eric Watson and a fight broke out when he stood up to the ‘Gladiator’ actor to defend his players.
He was questioned by police but faced no charges.

Both are a mess, he’s known for being aggressive and racist, she’s known for having a big mouth and being racist both towards white and black people, although she have a thing for white men. If his side of the events is true then she got what she deserved. If Banks’s version is truth then the man needs to be charged.
A racist? No he is not.
Again. We let these “OLD” white men degrade another man of color. When will White People stop treating people of color like they are dirt and beneath them. When? When we start treating them like the bastards they are. Destroy them.
Slow news day?
sigh.
Both are racist garbage. I can’t believe people were actually defending Azealia like her mouth isn’t reckless.
I KNEW IT! She TRIES IT with EVERYBODY, running off at the mouth…but THIS TIME she met her MATCH with Russell lol…he wasn’t having ANY OF MISS STANKS…I’m not saying he was right, I’m just saying she better learn WHEN to shut her mouth, and sit her silly behind down somewhere…or get embarrassed! And Russell had no problem embarrassing THAT AZZZ…are you not entertained, MISS BANKS?

He most definitely isn’t right. You can’t put 2 hot heads in a room and expect sh!t not to boil.
She is so pathetic. Russell Crowe is definitely not a racist. She will try anything!!
1. He has a HISTORY of racist behavior
2. Were you there?
3. Shut up and go pick up a history book and stop kissing ass
So she provoked him. She caused all this. Y’all can keep defending the joke she’s done.
Tbh Azealia Banks isn’t the type to provoke people out of the blue. She’s a more defensive person if she feels double crossed or disrespected. Something so trivial as a cut eye/dirty looks would vex her. Words were probably exchanged which set her off. We all know she’s a hot head so that’s never a good situation. This is not an excuse AB needs help with anger control but we all know Russell’s history and it’s gonna take more than “key white witnesses” telling his side to convince me differently.
If I see one more account use this situation as a ploy to say that racism exists for white people I’m gonna snap. Azalea is not a racist because white people are not affected by racism.
Then you clearly don’t know what racism is. If racism is purely based on institutional power then if one day, hypothetically speaking, if Black people were to have more power than White people, would that mean that White people could no longer be racist? No of course you won’t accept that would you?
Arguing that Black people can only be “bigoted” or “prejudice” but not racist, is arguing semantics.
Russel Crowe is known to be a bit of an ahole, but look at who he was dealing with. I have no doubt in my mind that Azealia instigated all of this to get some headlines going about her without starting another Twitter feud and by trying to be the victim rather than the aggressor.
Both of them are a mess and should be a shame of themselves
