Rapper Azealia Banks got off a flight to Dublin after a dispute with Aer Lingus staff, and is now in a fight with basically all Irish people.
She’s meant to be playing a gig in Dublin tonight, but tearfully told her Instagram followers yesterday:
Every time I come to the UK there’s always shit with these airline people, they’re always starting shit with me… The lady’s asking me some f**king questions. She goes to the captain of the plane and says that I said, “Don’t stare at me or I’ll sort you out.” I’m from NYC, I don’t use that kind of slang.
“I get off the plane. I’ve worked too hard in my life to be cornered by some ugly Irish bitch. They are ugly Irish women here,” she continued.
Of course, Irish women weren’t too happy about being called ugly, so proceeded to be racist towards Azealia because that really proves her wrong, right?
Azealia clarified that she “never said all Irish women were ugly”, just the women on the plane: “Irish women are showing their eagerness to spew racism by twisting my words to say I called the whole country ugly. And no… I’m not apologising.”
Anyway, she’s on her way to Dublin now and it looks like the gig is going ahead. If we know anything about Azealia, this… probably will not be the last you hear of it.

Kylie Jenner has addressed rumours that she’s having baby number two.
Last week, a ‘source’ told People that she and Travis Scott wanted to have another child “sooner rather than later”.
And earlier this month, she was reported to have been “influenced” by sister Kim expecting baby number four, because “they all loved being pregnant at the same time” and the idea of all their children being close in age.
She didn’t help things by tweeting about a ‘secret project’ she was cooking up yesterday…
I have something really exciting i get to share soon with you guys! I’ve been cooking this up for awhile i can’t wait to share my new project alreadyyy 😁☺️

Speculation has moved on to another season of her solo reality show, or the announcement of her marriage to Travis. We’ll have to wait and see…

Bebe Rexha says designers are refusing to dress her for the Grammys because at a US size 8 (UK size 10), she’s “too big”.
The singer posted a video to Instagram claiming she had approached several designers to get a dress for the ceremony next month, to no avail.
“I finally get nominated at the Grammys and it’s the coolest thing ever. And a lot of times artists will go and talk to designers and they’ll make them custom dresses to walk the red carpet,” she said. “So I had my team hit out a lot of designers and they do not want to dress me because I’m too big.”
If a size 6/8 is “too big” then I don’t know what to tell you. I don’t want to wear your f**king dress, cos that’s crazy. You’re saying that all the women in the world that are size 8 and up are not beautiful and they cannot wear your dresses.
“My size 8 ass is still going to the Grammys,” she wrote in the caption. One designer has already offered to dress her through an Instagram comment, so hopefully she’ll get herself sorted.
And now it’s time for… #SponConCorner
*Sponcon = sponsored content. Who’s flogging what, and why?!
Sarah Jessica Parker is bringing back Carrie Bradshaw… for sponcon! In fairness to her, it’s to support “a cause we all care about”, which she hasn’t revealed just yet. Initially, the caption featured the hashtag #PourItForward (which she later removed), so we can guess it’s a drinks brand. Starbucks?

Meanwhile, Kendall Jenner is discussing her partnership with acne treatment Proactiv, acknowledging that there are “much bigger problems happening in the world” than her spots, but finding a product that worked really helped her insecurities.
“I didn’t see the day I would feel confident posting a makeup free picture,” she wrote. “My goal is to open up a dialogue around skin positivity.” Remember when we thought her “brave, vulnerable, raw story” was going to be… not for an ad? What a time.
