Azaelia Banks is @ it again

 

Azaelia banks has a very nasty reputation of ranting and insulting people on twitter. Although sometimes there is a kernel of truth in her motives, she often oversteps boundaries with harsh insults that always paint her in a bad light. This time her target was Zayn Malik, former one Direction band member, for copying her artistic style in his newest video.

 

 

 

He chose not to indulge her, but his fans went on her instagram to spam her feed with Zayn’s tweet: “My @’s too good for you”

A 14 year old Disney star, Skai Jackson tweeted in defense of Malik and the Broke With Expensive Taste rapper didn’t mince words for her either.

 

 

Yikes!

As former Prime Minister of the country, he admitted to being offered bribes but not actually taking any. We’re a bit skeptical about the scope of truth that he offered.

Those Nigerians are fantastically corrupt: Cameron’s diplomatic gaffe

 

Speaking to the Queen Elizabeth II David Cameron called Nigeria and Afghanistan “fantastically corrupt, although an unidentified member of clergy that was listening to the conversation chimed in defending the president of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, saying that he was “trying” and wasn’t actually corrupt.

Buhari later rebuffed by saying that he didn’t want an apology from Cameron, but he would appreciate the return of assets stolen from Nigeria by UK officials as penance.
