Azaelia Banks labels Waterford Rose of Tralee winner 'ugly' in vicious online attack

American rapper Azealia Banks attacked Rose of Tralee winner Kirsten Mate Maher on social media last night.

The 212 rapper labelled the Waterford Rose '"ugly" on her Insta stories account.

The Waterford Rose, who hails from Mullinavat Kilkenny, took the abuse in her stride, posting to her own Insta stories writing: "Nah you're chopped sis".

However, it wasn't the only hot water Banks got into yesterday.

Azaelia, who is due to play at The Academy in Dublin tonight, took to social media again yesterday to state that she had been treated like an 'animal' by Aer Lingus.

"They always want to say it’s not racism", she said.  "But it’s the same s**t from you ugly ass Aer Lingus b*****s.”
