The performer came under fire after she sent racist tweets and other offensive remarks to Zayn Malik and Skai Jackson.
Twitter suspended Azealia Banks’ account after she tweeted accusations and racially-charged remarks to Zayn Malik and 14-year-old Disney star Skai Jackson on Wednesday.
The incident started when she called out former One Direction member Malik in an Instagram post, insinuating he drew heavily from her music video for one of his own.
She then tweeted at Zayn during an exchange, calling him a “curry scented b—-” (Malik is of Pakistani descent), and directed a stream of inappropriate tweets at Jackson, who got involved by telling her to “simmer down.”
Attempting to visit Banks’ Twitter profile on Thursday morning brought users to the page, which says the account has been suspended.
Following the posts, the Rinse FM’s Born & Bred Festival in London announced it had cancelled her upcoming headline performance.
