Rapper Azealia Banks has revealed she has started bleaching her skin despite blasting celebrities about "cultural appropriation" in the past.
The 25-year-old musician has admitted she's now started to bleach her own skin, reported Female First.
And the 25-year-old musician doesn't seem to think there is a "difference" between changing the colour of her skin and having plastic surgery and wearing hair extensions.
In a video for Facebook live, she said, "What's the difference between getting a nose job and changing your skin colour? Nobody was upset when I was wearing 30-inch weaves and tearing out my edges and doing all that. You guys loved it."
Shortly after the singer's video was posted online, several fans called Banks a hypocrite after the comments she had made about "cultural appropriation" in the past.
