She's baaaa-aaaack... Azealia Banks, a 27 year old rapper from New York, is no stranger to controversy when flying. Many of you may not know who she is, but may recognise this track, which is probably her most well known. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3Jv9fNPjgk In 2015 she went crazy on a Delta flight from New York to Los…

POS like that should be banned from all airlines so rest of us don’t have to hear or sit near them. She can go hire private. Oops, I guess she’s not successful enough to do that.
A universal no-fly list for people who can’t be a decent human for a few hours on a plane would shut down people like this real fast. Enjoy taking the boat to Ireland, Azalea.
Flying is a privilege, not a right. Behave yourselves, people.
Never heard of her or her music. Hope to never hear about her again.
I don't think this is a very newsworthy piece, James. Clickbait a la your previous piece about a female insisting on being addressed as "Dr."
What foul mouthed DYKWIA
“ musician “ ? Who ? A nobody who thinks she’s someone
Her response sums it up and making bigoted comments about Irish
Am sure she’ll concoct some story about the staff being racist
Her next performance is in Dublin ? I hope she likes potatoes
This is just gossip and small talk.
No need to report the idiocies of the idiots, you are just making them more publicity and feeding the buzz on behalf of the toddlers, however (in)famous.
Plus her music sucks, if you really wanna call it music.
@Leeza1: LOL!!!!! They both should fly private as the only two passengers and no crew other than pilot and co-pilot. That would be an interesting flight.
Just another entitled minority blamin' the dusty ass crackers for all her ills. I think I saw Debit holding hands with her in that video. They should put her on the terrorist no-fly list.
@Santastico: It's my understanding that you're probably Brazilian and love Santos Futebol Clube.
Maybe someone could kidnap those two and leave them in Sao Vicente.
Stop the fake news!! She was not banned!
She chose to deplane and confirmed she is flying back on Aer Lingus...lol!!!
Yall wanna tear a blk woman down soo bad....she has a sold out show in Dublin tonight and you queens Shall deal!!
I wish there was a way to ban that kind of people from every single airline in the world...
No idea who she is, but Aer Lingus' reputation just got bumped up a few notches because of this in my book.
/Worse flight I ever had was on an Aer Lingus flight. I might consider flying on them now.
Please STOP giving these idiots attention. They require bloggers and social media addicts and other dimwits to spread the word about them. PLEASE STOP. Because you slavishly promote all this kind of crap, YOU are responsible for idiots like this - yes YOU. Stop showering them with attention, and these idiots will have to go get a job and leave humanity alone and the world would be a better place.
Addicted to clicks, are you? How are you different from them?
I shall refrain from mentioing anything about this event lol
Want to say I did 5 transatlainc flights last year on Aer Lingus and they are truly back in my good books they are excellent on departing on time be it JFK or dublin staff attitude much improved
went to Delta on the jfk- Dublin route for a couple years wine free on Delta 😉
I like the new livery well done the flagship airline you represent us proudly around the world take no crap from anyone
Hmm. I thought I came to a website about travel, but somehow I ended up on TMZ. If these type of articles are the future of this website I will go elsewhere for actual travel related information.
Azealia Banks is such a sad cautionary tale. She should be the most famous female singer/rapper in the world. She’s definitely the most talented among those who’ve gained any real recognition. But because she’s a woman she doesn’t get the same pass to act a fool that male performers do. A male singer/rapper can get away with, even increase his fame, by beating his girlfriend, sexually abusing teenagers, shooting people, serving real time etc. Banks on the other hand is just a little bit crazy, a total diva, and likes to spew offensive crap everywhere. If she would shut her mouth then she might have the fame and success where even people who think she doesn’t make “music” (that merits nothing more than an eye roll) would know who she is. But I would be pissed as hell to be held to a higher standard than my male peers too. Just please keep releasing music, girl!
It’s not like talented musicians or artists being problematic people is anything new.
She's ignorant, vicious trash. Always has been, always will be.
Google her. The only time she's in the news is when she's said or done something horrendous to another human being, culture, or country.
What a nasty piece of work, with fame and success comes decency and respect to others. This gal has a lot to learn about fitting in if she intends to share space with other folks on this earth
I am sure we will here from DEBIT soon enough ! about how this poor lady is a product of discrimination etc.................
Assholes like her need to be banned from flying. As for her homophobic slur, I am sure it will be brought up if she ever gets to host an award show.
This type of mentioning via internet only gets her closer to "being somebody"- which is what she wants.
Please stop this.
I appreciate these stories, and thank you James for posting it. I think she must be a dispicable person, and good to let others know that there are too many of these situations so helps to be aware.
1. Who is she ?
2. Soon, she will run out of airlines to fly, and hopefully will be on the bus, until that option runs out.
3. De-plane is not a word.
Never heard of her, but she sounds trashy.
Speaking of which: why do I normally only hear of rappers when they get arrested or shot?
What a disgusting racist piece of a..t she is. At a “ concert “ in Ireland she referred to Irish as inbread leprechauns and don’t people have a famine to go and die in
After the tirade on aer Lingus she sd be prosectuted
Can you imagine a white performer alluding to African slavery and famine
