Azealia Banks Says She’ll Sue Matty Healy After He Threatened To Slap Her

Matty Healy surrendered in a Twitter feud with Azealia Banks after the 1975 frontman threatened to slap her. Now she's threatening to sue him.

Late Tuesday night, Healy called himself out for this very behavior after he escalated a heated online exchange with Azealia Banks to a point where he threatened her with physical violence. In one since-deleted post, the singer wrote: “Talk to me like that I’m not gonna side eye you at an awards show do I’ll fucking slap you so hard I’ll get a Guinness world record for the highest a rat some bitch calls a wig has ever flown.” The comment came in defense of Healy’s wife, the model Gabbriette, who caught a few strays after Healy began responding to Banks’ recent tirade against Charli XCX, who is marrying his bandmate George Daniel. “And people are gonna learn some fucking respect.” A few tweets later, Banks referred to Thailand as a “ septic tank of a country,” took aim at Healy’s history with heroin addiction, and doubled down on her claim that Charli XCX “ has horrible plastic surgery.”
