Azealia Banks, who publicly apologizes to the gay community and vowed never to use the word "F----t" Again took huge step in the right direction, according to American blogger Perez Hilton.

The American rapper wrote on her Facebook page that "The amount of people that get hurt when i use the word vs. the amount of people I've said it to are just not worth it."

Later she wrote: "I love to please and inspire others with my music and art the most, More than i love anything in the world," adding "To lose out on a chance to make people feel good and smile and be happy would be the dumbest thing i could do in this lifetime."

Banks, who is herself bisexual continued, saying that: "By using those words i paint a picture of myself that isn't the true me. I paint the picture of my upbringings, my neighborhood, my pain, and my misfortunes... I paint the picture of someone who is used to suppressing things, and being defensive. I paint the picture of someone who cannot allow themselves to be vulnerable or at the very least, Happy."

Banks was reported to have gone into a meltdown of a sort as her attacks backfire, threatening her livelihood. She is the target of a potential defamation lawsuit by Palin and her more recent projections of bigotry at former One Direction star, Zayn Malik led her to being axed from a UK music festival, and then banned from Twitter.

But with the media taking kindly to her side after the apology, she just might back to re-joining the entertainment community once more.
