Paulo Costa trolls Conor McGregor amid nude leak by Azealia Banks and cheating rumours: ‘Maybe someday some of my…'

The internet was not ready for an online nude leak scandal to unfold between Irish MMA legend Conor McGregor and American rapper Azealia Banks, but then is anything surprising anymore in 2025? Just when it felt like the McGregor–Banks saga couldn't get any messier, UFC fighter Paulo Costa decided to toss in his two cents. The Brazilian middleweight, known as much for his unpredictable humour as his punches, added his voice to the viral chaos surrounding McGregor's latest 'nudes' leak scandal. Scroll ahead to know exactly how Costa reacted. Azealia Banks leaks Conor McGregor nudes on X On June 14, Azealia Banks claimed that Conor McGregor sent her inappropriate photos through Instagram DMs without her permission. In screenshots shared on X, Banks called out the UFC fighter for allegedly sending 'unsolicited' nudes and then trying to silence her. 'How are you going to send someone crooked dick pics and then tell them not to speak about it?' she wrote, adding, 'Conor McGregor—do you even know who you're messing with? This is HARAM.' In another post, she continued: 'You sexually harass me with that potato farmer d**k and then try to scare me into staying quiet? Aren't you trying to be Ireland's president or something? Seriously—use some sunscreen.' Banks' screenshots showed that messages were sent to her Instagram inbox, but she never accepted the DM request. Paulo Costa reacts to Conor McGregor's scandal Just as McGregor's controversy gained momentum, Paulo Costa couldn't resist weighing in. On his X account, he posted, 'I don't judge. Maybe someday there will pop up some of my di*k photos somewhere. I hope not.' I don't Judge. Maybe someday there will pop up some of my dick photos somewhere. I hope not 🤞 His response didn't name McGregor directly, but the timing and subject made it clear who he was referencing. Costa's dry humour was quickly picked up by fans, with many calling it one of the more 'honest' takes. Conor McGregor spotted with mysterious woman Notably, Banks' post came just days after McGregor was spotted getting cosy with a mystery woman on a Florida beach, sparking speculation about his relationship with long-time fiancée Dee Devlin. In the viral photos, McGregor could be seen drinking, hugging, and relaxing with the woman, sparking cheating speculations. Conor McGregor out cheating on Dee again. Looks consensual, hopefully he doesn't rape this woman later Despite the ongoing drama, Devlin didn't show any signs of concern. On July 14, as Conor McGregor turned 37, she shared a heartfelt birthday message on Instagram along with cheerful family photos featuring their four children: Conor Jr., Croía, Rían, and Mack. How did the MMA legend react to the controversy? The 37-year-old has remained unfazed throughout the controversy. Amid all the online buzz, McGregor simply posted a cryptic message: 'Happy birthday to me.' He didn't address the situation directly, but the post made it clear he's not letting the drama rattle him.

Thai woman ‘seduced', extorted senior monks for millions, arrested

A Thai woman has been arrested for allegedly seducing several senior Buddhist monks and blackmailing them for money with their intimate material. The monks allegedly diverted money from temple accounts to meet Wilawan's financial demands.(AP) The accused, Wilawan Emsawat, who is believed to be in her mid-30s, was arrested at her home in Bangkok's Nonthaburi province. As a result of the scandal, at least nine abbots and senior monks involved in the scandal have been disrobed and cast out of the monkhood, the Royal Thai Police Central Investigation Bureau said.

The monks allegedly diverted money from temple accounts to meet Wilawan's financial demands. A scandal fueled by seduction, extortion The case came to light after the sudden and unexplained resignation of a prominent abbot in Bangkok, said Jaroonkiat Pankaew, a Central Investigation Bureau deputy commissioner. Investigators later uncovered that he had been coerced by Wilawan, who claimed she was pregnant and demanded a staggering 7.2 million baht (approx. $222,000) to remain silent, the news agency reported.

Police believe this wasn't an isolated incident. Evidence from Wilawan's mobile phones has revealed tens of thousands of photos and videos, as well as numerous chat logs indicating intimacy with several monks, many of which could be used for blackmail. Trail of money found Over the past three years, Wilawan reportedly received around 385 million baht (roughly $11.9 million) in her bank accounts—much of it transferred by monks using temple funds.

Thai Buddhism under the scanner The possible violation of the celibacy rule for monks has rocked the country's religious institutions and raised serious questions about temple finances and monk conduct. Thai monks are largely members of the Theravada sect, which requires them to be celibate and refrain from even touching a woman. Scandals involving monks surface a few times a year in Thailand, but usually don't involve senior members of the clergy. The case also puts a spotlight on the large sums of money donated to temples controlled by abbots, which is in marked contrast to the abstemious lives they are supposed to lead under their religion's precepts.
