Azealia Banks just broke some major news: the singer has landed the coveted role of performer at this year’s Met Ball gala.  Banks, who will attend the gala on the arm of Alexander Wang, broke into fashion’s heart last fall, following the release of her first hit, “212.”  After a New York Times profile, Banks landed a page or two in nearly every fashion magazine—including ELLE!—and performed at Topshop’s London Fashion Week bash.  In what was probably a fit of awesome excitement, Banks tweeted, “I’ve Been invited to Perform for PRADA next week in NYC! Gonna b so lush !! Let’s see what new songs I debut there! #metball2012.”   It’s already been deleted, but we’re guessing the rapper’s invitation won’t be revoked.
