Matty Healy and Azealia Banks go at it on Twitter
Settle in ONTD, the worst people you know are fighting. Sadly, for many of you, this one does involve reading.
The TLDR is: Azealia tweets that Charli XCX looks very different to when she first met her (and blames this on WeHo gays), Matty responds and Azealia claps back insulting him, Charli, and his girlfriend Gabriette, and in a now-deleted tweet, Matty threatens Azealia, saying he'll hit her next time he sees her. Now he has redacted that and apologised, but Azealia is having none of it.
The initial tweet:
Charli used to be soooo pretty. Ugh. Boaaa, I swear them weho gays be having the girls questioning themselves meanwhile they all scraping k off a cookie sheet, eating cold bossanova and sharing panties. Tuh. https://t.co/JeI5qSw33i

Matty responds to this:
Azealia you seem to have a blind spot when it comes to your ‘reads’. All the women you attack seem to be culturally relevant, attractive, divisive and NICE people. I think this makes you jealous cos you’re so talented but everything else about you is a failure. Just rap bro https://t.co/xKe9b71UV1

Azealia says she wasn't reading:
Hmmmm. That wasn't a read. I've known Charli since she was 16 and always thought she was absolutely gorgeous, but there's a stark contrast between this and this https://t.co/FjW58aeq77 pic.twitter.com/QVhC8L698V

And responds to a now-deleted tweet from Matty in response, regarding his partner Gabriette
The bitch look like Frankenstein to me. You both look like you share needles. Lmao. https://t.co/XpiAAaUT0Q

Matty responds with a further now-deleted racist tweet threatening violence against Azealia - screen cap here:
And Azealia responds in turn:
What type of pussy ass nigga goes online and incriminates himself this way? Lmfao a man could slap the shit out of Gabi and you wouldn't do a damn thing. You're too busy kissing men on stage for clout. https://t.co/XpiAAaUT0Q
- Azealia Banks (@azealiaslacewig) December 4, 2024
Azealia then reads Matty:
Stick up for these jibs dear, they look like white castle burger onions. It's clear you do not floss enough, dont use the right toothpaste, should quit cigs, and you wait till after coffee to brush your teeth. Your gums look inflamed like early signs of gingivitis. You must brush… https://t.co/CvJwjMfJWv pic.twitter.com/2YKOhALUYL
- Azealia Banks (@azealiaslacewig) December 4, 2024
Matty then retracts his threat and apologises to Azealia, and she responds:
How are you really hurt about what a bitch has to say about another when you're okay saying you like watching porn with black women being brutalized? Are u really the nigga charles Xbox is hanging with? My point proven. https://t.co/qjgJ9I5mNi
- Azealia Banks (@azealiaslacewig) December 4, 2024
Azealia then calls him out for being racist:
Fuck your mates honestly. This is like the third time you've come out of your face spewing violence specifically towards black women. Brutalized porn, ice Spice, now you're threatening to slap me and think a small apology will suffice. https://t.co/CvJwjMfJWv
- Azealia Banks (@azealiaslacewig) December 4, 2024
Matty then tries to get 'jokey' and make the situation more lighthearted:
No but we should actually sort this out on the remix @azealiaslacewig
- Truman Black (@Gooodmorninguys) December 4, 2024
And says Azealia would win, which many are taking as a slight about the 'aggressive Black woman' stereotype:
She’d fuckin batter me tbf
- Truman Black (@Gooodmorninguys) December 4, 2024
And decides to delete his violent tweet:
Ok I’m gonna delete that tweet that was not cool even if I was angry
- Truman Black (@Gooodmorninguys) December 4, 2024
Azealia is not happy:
I didn't threaten him. He threatened me, and he's going to pay for it. https://t.co/aozwzViAi8

I haven't included every tweet because there's a LOT. So this is condensed, but there's more where that came from should you seek it out.
