Not mincing words! Azealia Banks spoke exclusively with Us Weekly following her Saturday, October 15, Beverly Hills hotel room altercation with Russell Crowe. Though she is still upset over the incident — in which she alleges Crowe called her a racial slur and spat on her — the “212” rapper, 25, tells Us why she isn’t completely shattered.
“I’ve got youth and beauty, and he’s got beer belly and jowls!” the New York City native tells Us of feuding with the Gladiator star, 52. “I got music. I got music, and I got youth.”

Azealia Banks 'Distraught' After Russell Crowe Throws Her Out of Hotel
Ryan Gosling's 'The Nice Guys' is a 'Clever' and 'Sublime' Potboiler
As previously reported, Banks — who attended a dinner party hosted by Crowe as a guest of rapper-actor RZA — filed a police report this past Sunday. “She was attacked,” her rep told Us at the time. “What has been reported as to what had led up to the attack is all fictitious.”
According to Banks, she and Crowe butted heads after the hip-hop star jokingly told one of the Oscar winner’s friends that his upcoming horror film would “suck.”
“I don’t know, maybe Russell was supposed to be in that movie. But then Russell turns to me, and he was like, ‘Hey, you haven’t done anything in your career, and you’re so young, and you don’t know what you’re talking about. You don’t know what you’re talking about, you haven’t done anything in your career, blah, blah, blah,’” she alleges. “I was confused, I’m just like, wait, is he joking, is he serious? But I keep it light, and I’m just like, ‘OK, well, you’re not poppin’ anymore. Your best days are behind you, Russell Crowe. Nobody’s checking for Russell Crowe right now.’”
Banks claims that the verbal scuffle resulted in a larger fight, prompting Crowe to kick her out of his suite. During an October 18 interview with The Sun, Banks claimed that Crowe referred to her as a “n---er” and put his arm around her neck before making her leave.
