Azealia Banks Blasts Both Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus in VMAs Feud: “Contest of the Basics”

Nicki Minaj, Azealia Banks, and Miley Cyrus
The ever-so-opinionated Azealia Banks weighed in on the VMAs feud between Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus via Twitter -- and she thinks they're both "BASIC BASIC BASIC."

At least they have something in common! The ever-so-opinionated Azealia Banks weighed in on the VMAs feud between Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus via Twitter on Wednesday, Sept. 2, and it looks like she's #TeamNeither.

"Miley Cyrus HAS to know her s–t is whack as f–k," Banks, 24, first wrote, making it seem as if she was pro-Minaj. "It has to be a joke… Isn't she making fun of herself? Yes? No?"

But then, the Harlem native — who has previously mocked and slammed the likes of nemesis Iggy Azalea, Lady Gaga, Eminem, T.I.'s wife Tiny, and Lorde — unleashed her fury on both stars. (She's also famously feuded with Minaj already after a BET Awards spat in May 2015.)

Banks, however, claimed that she woke up in a feisty mood following an outrageous, tense dinner party from the previous night. According to the rapper, she dumped a "pot of soup" on a guy last night after he did something not-so-nice to her sister.

And while Banks attempted to insert herself into the feud on Wednesday, a source tells Us that Minaj's outburst against Cyrus was very real. "Nicki is famously a little hot-tempered," the insider told Us. "After, everyone saw that she was legitimately upset. They just made sure that if Nicki was going to go into the pressroom, or if Miley came down into the audience to do a bit, anything like that — that the two ladies wouldn’t cross paths."

Meanwhile, Cyrus, 22, is currently being trolled on her social media accounts and across the Internet with Minaj's now-famous words while the "Anaconda" rapper accepted the Moonman for Best Hip Hop Video. "And now… back to this bitch that had a lot to say about me in the press," Minaj, 32, said before the star-studded audience during the live broadcast. "Miley, what’s good?"
