Azealia Banks dropped from London festival

The organisers of a London festival have dropped Azealia Banks from their line up after her racial and homophobic tweets to Zayn Malik.

Azealia was due to headline at Born & Bred in Haggerston Park in June.

The 24-year-old rapper wrote over a hundred tweets about Zayn after he supposedly copied her music video.

Writing on social media the team behind the festival say they celebrate equality and had no option but to cancel Azealia's appearance.
