Nude pictures of Conor McGregor appeared on social media on Monday afternoon after being shared by a woman who claims the Irish MMA star sent her unsolicited naked images. The woman at the centre of the storm is American rapper Azealia Banks. The 34-year-old took to X on Monday to share the snaps of McGregor with her followers on the social media platform. Banks claims McGregor sent her the two images via her X (formerly Twitter) account. Banks, who does not follow McGregor on the social media app then took screenshots of the images and shared them with her 260k followers on X. "'How you gonna send a b**** a some crooked d*** pics then threaten her not to tell,' she wrote alongside the screenshots. '@TheNotoriousMMA n**** do you know who the f*** I am? This is HARAM'," said Banks. She continued: "Like how are you really going to sexually harrass me with the potato farmer d*** 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***ing sunscreen damn." Banks also appeared to share a screenshot of a message she received from McGregor where he appears to be telling her not to share the images. "Don't be a rat cos all rats get caught", reads the message. Conor McGregor Surprisingly, a few hours later, Banks, posted on X saying she and McGregor have been sending each other unsolicited nudes since 2016. Who is Azealia Banks? Azealia Banks is an American musician who primarily produces rap music. She was born in New York City in May 1991 and is 34-years-old. Banks was something of a prodigy growing up and starred in a production of 'City of Angels' when she was just a teenager. She began releasing her music on social media site Myspace and eventually caught the attention of music producers at XL recordings. Banks has released one studio album 'Broke with expensive taste' which reached number two in the US Rap charts upon its release in 2014. McGregor's response As of yet, McGregor has not officially responded to Banks' social media posts. Nor has he made comment on a separate story that broke over the weekend where the Irishman - who is engaged to Dee Devlin - was snapped kissing a bikini-clad mystery woman on a Florida beach. Images of McGregor, who is engaged to long-term partner Devlin with whom he has four children, that appear to show him kissing a mystery woman on a beach in Florida, emerged on Monday. The photographs appear to show McGregor wearing nothing but luminous green swimming shorts embracing a dark-haired bikini clad woman while sitting on a sun lounger on the beach. Breaking his silence, McGregor took to X to post: "Happy Birthday to me!" as he celebrates turning 37-years-old.

Govt, minister fail to quash ex-KL Tower operator's suit
The High Court ruled that there are issues arising from a supplementary agreement signed in 2022 between Hydroshoppe and the government for the lease of KL Tower which must go to trial. KUALA LUMPUR : The High Court has rejected the government's bid to strike out a lawsuit filed by KL Tower's former operator over the award of the tower's concession to another company. Justice Roz Mawar Rozain held that Hydroshoppe Sdn Bhd and Menara KL Sdn Bhd's claim against the government and communications minister Fahmi Fadzil, named a co-defendant, must proceed to trial. 'There are triable issues regarding the 2022 agreement,' she added. However the court struck out Hydroshoppe's claim against the new operators, LSH Service Master Sdn Bhd, LSH Best Builders Sdn Bhd, and Service Master (M) Sdn Bhd. Roz Mawar held that Hydroshoppe had failed to properly identify its cause of action against the three entities, rendering the suit defective. She also ordered Hydroshoppe to pay them RM20,000 in costs. The court fixed the suit against the government and Fahmi for case management on Nov 3. In March, Hydroshoppe and Menara KL filed the suit claiming that the government's award of the concession to the LSH group was in breach of contract. They asked the court to declare the award of the KL Tower concession to LSH Service Master void and unlawful. They are seeking an estimated RM1 billion in damages. Lawyer Vinayak Sri Ram appeared for Hydroshoppe while senior federal counsel Ahmad Hanir Hambaly appeared for the government and lawyer Malik Imtiaz Sarwar represented LSH Service Master.
