Azealia Banks said that Russell Crowe spat on her during a dispute in 2016 that many denied at the time but admitted to later on. Despite that, she still wants to sue.

"I saw Ashley Judd on the red carpet talking about a fund she had set up for girls who needed help suing guys who trespass.. I wonder if they can help me sue Russell Crowe?" She wrote on her IG story, "It would cost at least a quarter million to sue him and the reason I haven't gon harder is because I don't have the coin to be gambling in court."

In addition, she also said that she's positive that Crowe paid off people at the hotel to get rid of the video footage.

"Plus I'm positive that he paid the Beverly Hills hotel to get rid of those tapes. A lot of people should be in trouble for that." She wrote.
