Russell Crowe ‘N-Word’ Brawl — Rapper’s Full Story

Russell Crowe is still being blasted by rapper Azealia Banks after a wild Hollywood brawl — with Azealia saying the Oscar-winner called her the n-word before throwing her out of a party! She then rushed to social media to insist that she had proof of the wild encounter, while several partygoers in Russell's posh hotel suite insisted that Azealia was kicked out after a violent rant. The rapper, however, has now gone public with her own sordid story!

According to Azealia — who calls Russell a "racist, misogynistic pig" — the night began with her joining Russell's rapper pal RZA at the bash, and the actor flirting up a storm. But, said Azealia, things went bad when she mocked a pal of Russell's, with the "Noah" star taking offense!

“He was like, ‘Well, you know what? You’re young and you’ve never done anything in your career, so you don’t know what you’re ­talking about," claimed Azealia. "I’m a little offended, but I was still keeping it light. I was, like, ‘Your best days are behind you.’”

Azealia told the UK Sun newspaper that Russell's date then stepped up in a confrontation: “I said, ‘Girl, this is not the right time or place for us to be fighting. Like, what would happen if I got up and I slapped the s**t out of you, or I took a glass and f**king threw it at you and you were bleeding all over the place? I would be wrong and we’d all be wrong, and the party would be done!’”

In contrast, reports from eyewitnesses say that Azealia was mocking "boring white men" at the party, and ranting about how the guests would "love it if I broke my glass, stabbed you guys in the throat...like some real Tarantino sh*t." Eyewitnesses agree that Russell eventually had to grab Azealia and haul her out of the suite. Azealia, however, insists that was when Russell got racist!

“He calls me a ni**er, and then grabs me, picks me up, he chokes me by the throat, picks me up, throws me out of the room and then spits on me,” said Azealia — in an account disputed by others. “You don’t just spit on somebody, and in front of everybody.”

As reported by The National ENQUIRER, Russell is one of the few Hollywood stars as volatile as Azealia — who was once busted for biting a female security guard outside a Manhattan nightclub. But the actor has been on his best behavior for a while now. His pal RZA is also taking Russell's side.

Sources told The ENQUIRER that Azealia had originally tagged along with the rap star because she was trying to sign with his label — but Azealia says that she's no longer interested in a deal with RZA.

"He just stood there like a chump," she complained — adding: "That’s not somebody I need to attach myself to." Azealia has since deleted her original Facebook postings about the Hollywood brawl, but insists that she has evidence to back up her claims about the night.

Meanwhile, Azealia's back to looking for a record deal, just days after telling a reporter that RZA would turn her career around. "Maybe," she said, "it’s time to stop being a crazy girl.”
