Celebrity stylist Jamie Azzopardi reignited his infamous feud with The Challenge Australia 2022’s Suzan Mutesi at a star-studded bash in Sydney.
At Hayu’s launch party for The Real Housewives of Miami on December 13, the pair once again butted heads,
At the glitzy event which saw stars such as Kiki Morris, Jack Vidgen and Carla from Bankstown in attendance, Jamie told So Dramatic! he wanted to “push her in the pool”.
“If she comes close to me, I would push her into the pool,” the stylist told So Dramatic! on the night, adding: “I hate her. She doesn’t deserve to be here.”
The brutal comments are the latest in a slew of confrontations between the duo, with the fashion influencer accusing the Channel Ten reality star of being “fake” and purchasing over a million followers, during an interview with Megan Pustetto on the So Dramatic! podcast.
Suzan Mutesi slams Jamie Azzopardi as “disrespectful”
Speaking about the latest incident to the Daily Mail at the Hayu event on December 13, the reality star slammed the prominent fashion icon as “disrespectful”.
“It’s disrespectful to any black African woman who has come to this country. If that’s your joy, yeah go ahead and do it, I don’t care. To be honest, I am not interested,” Suzan told the publication.
“Stop bullying black women to raise yourself up. It’s pathetic,” she said in a message addressed to Jamie.
“But I am a black woman and I represent a lot of black women out there.”
She continued: “If that’s your joy, yeah go ahead and do it, I don’t care. To be honest I am not interested. I have no comments over someone hating me. All my life, all my high school, [I’ve dealt with] bullies and haters.”
Jamie Azzopardi SLAMS Suzan Mutesi’s “racism” claims
Speaking exclusively to So Dramatic! on December 14, Jamie slammed claims that the beef between the pair has anything to do with race.
“She told The Daily Mail I was a racist to deflect from answering any of the questions that I had asked previously about her behaviour, her fake followers, the fact that she assaulted me,” he said.
“Suzan said [in the Daily Mail story] ‘it’s disrespectful to any Black African woman.’ I’m not sure why that’s any different to any other woman, coloured or otherwise.”
He added: “Why call me a racist when this isn’t about race, why weaponise your race?”
In response to her labelling him a “hater“, Jamie hit back, saying: “If hating someone for lying is a hater, then call me a hater.”
Jamie Azzopardi accuses Suzan Mutesi of “assault” and buying her followers
The drama between the pair hit a boiling point in September when Suzan allegedly “assaulted” Jamie at a launch party by throwing a drink at him.
While leaving the venue, Jamie added that Suzan approached him again and tried to “paint him as a racist and a bully” before she confronted him again.
“She said: ‘I’m African. I will go super African on your ass’ and she leant forward and clawed at me with her right hand and scratched me with her nails,” he recalled on the So Dramatic! podcast.
The fashion influencer also previously slammed Suzan for stealing opportunities, buying followers and allegedly being “fraudulent” with brands and fake sponsorships.
“It fascinates me how she went from 200,000 followers pre-lockdown to 1.2 million and is on a reality TV show where she is representative of influencers,” he said to So Dramatic! of her sudden rise to fame.
“I think she bought one million followers and thinks that the rest of us are idiots.
“Just release your insights, and I’ll stop talking. I’ll admit I’m wrong, I don’t do it very often, but I will publicly say I was wrong.”
