Azealia Banks Is Unapologetic After Using The Word ‘Faggot’ In Violent Tantrum on Delta Flight

Sean Mandell September 23, 2015 Leave a Comment

Yesterday, we told you about rapper Azealia Banks’ violent temper tantrum that took place while she was attempting to exit a Delta flight. In a video of the incident, Banks is seen arguing with a flight attendant and a pilot presumably over her bag. Banks called the flight attendant a “f-kin’ faggot.”

After the incident, Banks took to Twitter to rant about the incident, alternating between different strains of thought to defend her actions and insisting she would only apologize to her fans who were sad to see her caught up in ‘drama.’

This is not Banks’ first time defending her use of the word “faggot.”

Banks posted the above picture on Twitter with the caption, “Here’s me on a plane waiting for another bitch ass flight attendant to try me. #AzealiaBanks #Brokewithexpensivetaste.” But that was hardly the extent of her thoughts on the incident and the backlash that ensued.

She first trotted out her own sexual identity and that of her friends and family to defend her behavior.

Then there was this display of bravado.

And an accusation that the incident was racially motivated.

Which led her to unleash on sexuality, race and linguistics.

Then came the one apology Banks was willing to make.

Banks then defended her behavior by referencing her experience with abuse.

Before turning back to race and also gender.

https://twitter.com/AZEALIABANKS/status/646506088221638656

https://twitter.com/AZEALIABANKS/status/646506363951050753

https://twitter.com/AZEALIABANKS/status/646506720206807041

And as for what you might think of her mentioning the fact that she’s bisexual to defend her behavior, she has this to add.
