Mother ? it's a bit late now!RZA speaks about the infamous 2016 incident
This week is the one year anniversary of the infamous Russell Crowe, Azealia Banks altercation. Details about that night are still being revealed.
On Wednesday, RZA, the one who invited Banks to the party, appeared on The Breakfast Club with Mathematics. They were mostly there to talk about the Wu-Tang Clan’s excellent new album The Saga Continues.

While there the two talked about a number of topics, from RZA meeting Martin Shkreli to Mathematics designing the infamous Wu-Tang symbol for $400. Things turned serious when RZA was asked about that night with Azealia Banks; just last week, the trailer for Love Beats Rhymes, the movie RZA and Banks did together, was released.

When asked if Crowe put hands on the rapper — Banks claimed that Crowe choked her, spat on her, threw her out, and called her ? — RZA finally admitted that “He spit at her, adding that he “saw that,”
This is the first time RZA admitted to the spitting. A couple of days after the incident, RZA put up a statement on his Facebook where he said he saw Banks behave in an “obnoxious erratic individual,” and he seemed to insinuate that’s what caused the altercation.
Banks doesn’t seem to be trying to hear any of this. She put a couple of posts on social media addressing RZA:

In the interview she also reveals her love for white men (who she refers to as marshmallows), as well as her wild sexscapades with older men and admits that she’s slept with men who could potentially help her work her way to the top.
In a selfie post on her Instagram, Banks was asked why she “dates old white dudes with money,” to which she offered an interesting reply:
Because black men take black women for granted and I’m too busy with music to be fighting for my rights at home. I already have to fight for respect with the black men in hip-hop so When I get home I like things to be nice and easy. Make sense?

Tarantino apologizes for staying silent about Weinstein's alleged abuse
Jackie Wattles, CNNMoney
Updated 5:43 AM ET, Fri October 20, 2017
(CNN)Quentin Tarantino, the famed director and frequent Harvey Weinstein collaborator, said in an interview that he had heard accounts of abuse by Weinstein and regrets not acting on it.
"I knew enough to do more than I did," Tarantino told The New York Times in a story published Thursday. "There was more to it than just the normal rumors, the normal gossip. It wasn't secondhand. I knew he did a couple of these things."
"I wish I had taken responsibility for what I heard," he added. "If I had done the work I should have done then, I would have had to not work with him."
In the past two weeks, more than 40 women have come forward with allegations of ? , sexual harassment or assault since the New York Times first published an article exposing decades of Weinstein's alleged misdeeds.
Through a spokesperson, Weinstein has denied "any allegations of nonconsensual sex."
privacy policy.
Weinstein's studio has distributed or worked on some of Tarantino's career-making films, including "Pulp Fiction," "? Bill," "Reservoir Dogs" and "Inglourious Basterds."
In his interview with the Times, Tarantino said he was familiar with some of the allegations against Weinstein that were detailed in reports by the Times and The New Yorker this month.
Tarantino said his knowledge of at least one allegation goes back to 1995, when his then-girlfriend Mira Sorvino told him Weinstein made unwelcome advances.
At the time, Tarantino said, he thought it was an isolated incident.
"I thought Harvey was hung up on her in this Svengali kind of way," he said. "Because he was infatuated with her, he horribly crossed the line."
Over the years, Tarantino said he heard more stories about Weinstein. He said he knew actress Rose McGowan had reached a settlement with the producer.
But he stayed silent. "I chalked it up to a '50s-'60s era image of a boss chasing a secretary around the desk," he told the Times. "As if that's O.K. That's the egg on my face right now."
Tarantino also called on Hollywood to alter its culture, saying men have "almost tolerated" a "Jim Crow-like system" that's harmed women.
Weinstein is currently the target of three investigations from authorities in New York, Los Angeles and London. He's also been fired from the helm of The Weinstein Co. and barred from The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Tarantino said he has reached out to Weinstein since the scandal became public, but Weinstein has not responded.

Dancer in the Dark Star Björk Says She Was Harassed by a “Danish Director”
Pop star Björk—who, around 2000, looked like she was about to become movie star Björk before abruptly announcing her retirement from film—has posted a harrowing account of her experiences with an unnamed “Danish director” who allegedly harassed her when they were working together. Björk starred in Danish director Lars von Trier’s 2000 film Dancer in the Dark, a heartbreaking performance that won her the Best Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival in 2000, while the film itself received the Palme d’Or. But despite critical acclaim, Björk retreated from movies after her experience making Dancer in the Dark. On Sunday, in a Facebook post she said was inspired by the women who have been speaking out about Harvey Weinstein, she offered further details about her experiences in the film industry:
it was extremely clear to me when i walked into the actresses profession that my humiliation and role as a lesser sexually harassed being was the norm and set in stone with the director and a staff of dozens who enabled it and encouraged it . i became aware of that it is a universal thing that a director can touch and harass his actresses at will and the institution of film allows it . when i turned the director down repeatedly he sulked and punished me and created for his team an impressive net of illusion where i was framed as the difficult one . because of my strength , my great team and because i had nothing to lose having no ambitions in the acting world , i walked away from it and recovered in a years time.
It wasn’t a secret that Björk and von Trier had a contentious relationship on set, nor was it a secret that she believed he had been emotionally abusive, but the allegation that this unnamed Danish director touched or harassed her, or punished her for refusing his advances, are new. As with many of these stories, however, a brief look at the contemporaneous press in light of her statement sets off all kinds of alarm bells. Björk disappeared from the set for four days in what was described in some accounts as a power play over control of the soundtrack and in others as a nervous breakdown. The Guardian ran a short piece passing along a story that Björk ate part of her costume in the middle of a fight, tempering what looked on its face like a “Björk acting irrationally” story with only a brief acknowledgment that “sources on the film say the rift goes deeper than” a clash between strong artistic personalities. And then there’s this, from an interview with Hollywood.com:
When you’re with Lars on your own, everything’s fine, and then when other people come in the room … it becomes a different story. It’s like the courtroom scene [in the film], where you’re the only one who knows—you and Lars.
Björk directly addressed von Trier’s alleged sexism and cruelty in a message board post on her website that also reads as though it were designed to allude to more than it explicitly said:
i was talking to a friend about it recently and i told him that the thing about making that film that upset me most was how cruel lars is to the woman he is working with. not that i can’t take it, because i’m pretty tough and completely capable of defending myself, but because my ideals of the ultimate creator were shattered. and my friend said “what did you expect? all major directors are ‘sexist’, a maker is not necessarily an expert in human rights or female/male equality!
my answer was that you can take quite sexist film directors like woody allen or stanley kubrick and still they are the one that provide the soul to their movies. in lars von trier’s case it is not so and he knows it. he needs a female to provide his work soul. and he envies them and hates them for it. so he has to destroy them during the filming. and hide the evidence. what saves him as an artist, though, is that he is so painfully honest that even though he will manage to cover up his crime in the “real” world (he is a genius to set things up that everybody thinks it is just his female-actress-at-the-moment imagination, that she is just hysterical or pre-menstrual), his films become a documentation of this “soul-robbery.” breaking the waves is the clearest example of that.
In Björk’s case, she had little to lose by walking away from the film world after her horrifying experience: she was already wealthy and powerful in the music industry and had, as she put it, “no ambitions in the acting world.” But as she acknowledges in her post, other actresses don’t have the same advantages. And even if they did: it may be no skin off Björk’s back that she walked away from acting after one role but is there any doubt we’re all poorer for it?
There’s a long tradition in the film world of forgiving exploitative, abusive relationships between directors and actors as “part of the process,” justified after the fact by the power of the art it produces in a way no one would tolerate at, say, a shoe factory. Stipulated: Dancer in the Dark is of more value to humanity than a pair of shoes. But it’s not of more value to humanity than the actual humanity of the people who were employed to work on it. In the past, arguments that art had to be religiously separated from the conditions under which it was produced—see also Blue Is the Warmest Color, Last Tango in Paris, The Birds, The Shining and on and on forever—seemed to be a symptom of caring about art a little too much. Now, however, as fallout from the allegations against Harvey Weinstein reveal a systemic problem with abuse and harassment, that argument is beginning to look more and more like a symptom of not caring enough about other people.
Update, Oct. 16: Lars von Trier denies that he abused or harassed Björk during the making of Dancer in the Dark. According to the Hollywood Reporter, von Trier's assistant has confirmed that the director made the denial to a Danish newspaper
