Okay, Azealia, it’s time to knock it off. She’s constantly fighting with any celebrity she can coax into a internet war, and Zayn is the latest casualty. On May 10, he released his new music video for his song “Like I Would.” Azealia highlighted several aesthetic similarities between the video and hers for her song “Chasing Time” in an Instagram pic. She started off relatively mellow, saying “Damn Zayn be mood boarding the f*ck of out me 😳.. I’m not mad about this though. Zayn is a cutie pie.” She went on to say that she wanted Zayn to “eat her a**” in another video. Awkwarddd.

Clearly, Zayn was not a fan of the attention, or the insinuation that he copied Azealia, so he took to Twitter to call out the rapper without actually saying her name. “No lies … I see you reaching but I don’t care 😆✌🏽️” he said, following it up with “My @’s too good for you.” Whether the tweets were directed at Azealia or not, she went completely insane when she saw them and attacked him using several racial slurs (which are aimed at Indian people despite the fact that Zayn is English-Pakistani) and homophobic insults.

What the heck? That went from 0-60 real quick. Even if Zayn was talking about her (which we don’t know for sure) he definitely didn’t do anything worthy of that kind of vicious attack. Azealia has been attacking everyone from Hillary Clinton to Iggy Azalea, and it’s getting really old.
