Azealia Banks cried and acted like a "dummy" when she first met Beyoncé

  • September 11, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Azealia Banks cried when she first met Beyoncé, she's confessed to Rolling Stone.

"It was so embar­rass­ing," she said. "It was at the Met Ball. I was fucking around with Kanye [CLANG!] and she was sitting there, chilling and eating dinner. I freaked out."

"And I realized she saw me being a dummy and I started crying," she continued. "Then I saw her expres­sion, like, 'girl, get your shit together'. I had to walk away and get myself together and pat my face, then come back to properly say hi!"

Well at least she's got that out of her system. Oh, hang on…

"And if I meet her again someday, I'll probably cry again."

Poor Beyoncé.
