Azealia Banks GoFundMe Reads as Follows:

It reads:

Russell Crowe spit on me at a party in 2016 and denied it, had a group of people gaslight me causing irreparable damage to my acting career and my reputation as well as loads of emotional damage. Whatever money comes from this will be donated to ocean clean up charities. This isn’t about a big payday for me, it’s about letting the world know that black women are victims to the same sort of disgusting violent men in Hollywood.

The fundraising post adds:

Crowe called me a n****r, choked me, and spat on me… if I were a white singer he wouldn’t have even thought about laying a finger on me. So many things like this happen in the entertainment industry and it’s time that ALL these perpetrators get reprimanded so they STOP this violent behavior!!

Why Azealia Banks Attempt to Sue is Wrong:

We understand that she feels justice needs to be served in this case, but I think he would have done it to anyone who disrespected him in his home around his friends. It was NOT a black white thing, and Azealia Banks seems to be so thirsty for attention that she is using the #MeToo movement to justify her foul and terrible behavior. We previously reported on this, and Banks was wrong back then and is wrong for pursuing it now. #SMH

Page Six confirmed in December 2016 that the Los Angeles County district attorney decided not to press charges against 54-year-old Crowe. Instead, the DA viewed the Oscar winner’s actions as an attempt to stop Banks from escalating the hotel room fight any further.

If you recall, the DA’s office stated that Crowe’s actions were “justified to prevent the imminent violence threatened by Banks” and that his alleged spitting — on her “gloved hand” — was “incidental to preventing more serious threatened violence.”

Here is some advice to Banks and anyone like her. “Learn to pick your fights, because all fights are NOT right.” This just makes Azealia look bad all over for rehashing this. She RUINED her career from her temper and continual attempts to attack people in the media. Girl get a mirror and be mad at yourself. #SAD
