Azealia Banks allegedly leaked explicit photos of Conor McGregor.
American singer Azealia Banks has stirred up a storm on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, by posting alleged explicit photos of Irish martial artist and UFC star Conor McGregor. Banks claimed that McGregor sent her unsolicited nude images and threatened her not to share them[1][2][3].
The controversy began when users reported finding explicit photos of McGregor on their timelines, with some suggesting that these images were sent to Banks[1]. The photos in question are now censored on X. McGregor has not directly addressed the authenticity of these claims, but he responded to the situation by focusing on political matters and calling the controversy a distraction[2][3].
The incident has caused a significant public controversy, with some users demanding a ban for both Banks and McGregor from Twitter due to their problematic behaviour on the platform[4]. Banks, who performed at the Bataclan venue in Paris on April 12, 2025, has been no stranger to controversy, having been previously mentioned in the same article[5].
Photographer Xavier GALIANA captured Banks during her performance at the Bataclan, with a photo of her published by AFP[6]. Meanwhile, McGregor is facing legal difficulties in the US due to a sexual assault case that took place in Kaseya Center[7]. Furthermore, McGregor was recently spotted getting intimate with a woman other than his wife at a beach in Fort Lauderdale, Florida[8].
In 2020, McGregor was convicted in Ireland over rape accusations and was ordered to pay €200,000[9]. This past incident has added fuel to the fire, with many questioning McGregor's behaviour and calling for accountability. It remains to be seen how this controversy will unfold, but one thing is certain - the world is watching closely.
