The Irish MMA star’s birthday took an unexpected turn when American rapper Azealia Banks decided to mark the occasion with explosive revelations that sent shockwaves across social media.
The 34-year-old Harlem-born artist took to her X account Monday to publicly expose what she claims were unsolicited adult images sent by McGregor, accompanied by threatening messages. Banks made it clear she wasn’t intimidated by any attempts to silence her.
“How you gonna send a b*tch a some crooked d*ck pics then threaten her not to tell. N*gga do you know who the f*ck I am? This is HARAM,” Banks wrote, using the Islamic term for something forbidden or sinful.

The controversial rapper, known for her outspoken nature, didn’t stop there. She continued her public callout of the former UFC champion with additional pointed commentary about his behavior and appearance.
“Like how are you really going to s*xually harrass me with the potato farmer d*ck then threaten me not to tell???? Honey…… ain’t u trying to be the president of Ireland what is it giving fam? Use some f*cking sunscreen damn,” she added in her characteristic provocative style.
According to Banks’ account, McGregor’s messages carried an ominous warning alongside the content. The MMA legend reportedly wrote: “Don’t be a rat, because all rats end up caught.”
Following the public exposure, McGregor appeared to take damage control measures, reportedly deleting the controversial images and unfollowing Banks on social media platforms. However, he has remained silent on the matter, offering no public response to the serious allegations.
This latest controversy adds another layer to McGregor’s mounting legal troubles. The timing is particularly significant, coming just six months after he was ordered to pay nearly €200,000 in damages to a woman who accused him of rape in Ireland. The former champion is also dealing with an ongoing legal case in the United States, where he faces allegations of SA-ing a woman in a restroom at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
The accusations arrive at a time when McGregor has been absent from professional competition for over four years, despite repeated hints about returning to the octagon. He has also made surprising political statements, suggesting a possible presidential run in Ireland.
Banks, who has built a reputation for her unfiltered social media presence and willingness to call out public figures, has not indicated whether she plans to pursue legal action against McGregor. Her decision to make the allegations public rather than handle them privately appears to be a deliberate choice to maintain control of the narrative.
