Someone still has a bee stuck in their bonnet

Lily Allen still has an axe to grind when it comes to rapper Azealia Banks, having mocked the rapper with her Twitter profile pic.

The pair had an extended Twitter spat in July 2013 after Azealia Banks called Lily Allen's children "ugly" and said that her husband Sam Cooper looked like a "thumb". Allen responded by calling the rapper a "one-hit wonder" before posting a picture of a penis made up to resemble a black person.

Yesterday (17 February), Allen changed her profile picture on Twitter, showing a screen grab of Banks' Twitter. The tweets shown are Banks attempting to get label Universal to drop her, with Tweets saying "I should have signed to Sony" and "Can someone at Sony buy me off please. I'm in hell here."

Allen has since deleted the profile picture, but it nevertheless shows that singer really is having trouble letting go of the argument. The dig also implies that Allen is revelling in Banks' current label and debut album strife. 

Below: 10 classic Lily Allen quotes as star reveals pop comeback

  • "Cheryl [Cole], if you''re reading this, I may not be as pretty as you but at least I write and SING my own songs without the aid of Auto-Tune," said Lily as she slammed the star''''s talent.

  • "I must say that taking your clothes off, doing sexy dancing and marrying a rich footballer must be very gratifying, your mother must be so proud, stupid b*tch," said Lily in another rant against Cheryl.

  • "Lady GaGa is good, but she''''s a new artist, Britney Spears is a legend. They are two different artists, two forms of entertainment but very different, it''s like comparing Picasso to Dali."

  • "I have Katy Perry''s number, someone did me a favour. I''m just waiting for her to open her mouth one more time and then it hits Facebook," she said as she threatened to share the US star''s personal details.

  • Following her own success Lily shocks us with her plans after singing: "I think I might try and get into cricket commentary once I''ve finished singing."

  • But before any cricket Lily says she wants to branch out and write for other artists: "I''m still writing songs all the time and I won''t be writing just for myself anymore. I want to write for Lady Gaga."

  • Lily Allen revealed she was no Tory voter, when she said at a live show: "I''d like to dedicate this next song (''F**k You'') to someone. David Cameron."

  • As a war of words loomed between Lily and Courtney Love, she said: "As a rule I don''t pick on crazy old ladies."

  • "Perez Hilton is an irritating wasp in the beautiful rose garden that is my life."

  • Not a Belieber Lily? "I had no idea who this #justinbieber person was, just found out he''s that kid that''s always on the TV when I''m in the gym. He''s about 5 right?"
