Rapper Azealia Banks has slammed former One Direction star Zayn Malik with a transphobic comment.

The "Big big beat" star made the comments on a collage of photographs of Malik from his GQ magazine photoshoot, reports mirror.co.uk.

"He legit looks like he used to be a girl. He gives me transman teas," Banks posted on Instagram.

It is not the first time Banks has criticised the 23-year-old singer, as she earlier called him a "curry scented b***h".

"Keeping sucking this young rapunxel d**k u hairy curry scented b***h. Imma start calling you punjab you dirty b***h. You a d**k rider for real. Ride this d**k until the wheels fall off Punjab," Banks had posted on her Twitter account.

Malik is not the only music star that has come under attack from Banks. Singers like Iggy Azalea, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift have also been criticised.
