"The Only Way Is Essex star Maria Fowler has said that X Factor finalist Marcus Collins is the rudest person she has ever met. The pair fell out earlier this month after she posted a photograph of the two together with a comment, sparking a Twitter war of words.  Fowler later apologised for using the phrase &amp;quot;half-breed&amp;quot; but maintained that she was not aware that the word had any racist connotations. Discussing the incident with Heat, she has now said: &amp;quot;He was shouting at me, all sweaty and up in my face. &amp;#039;Why are you calling me &amp;#039;big time&amp;#039; on Twitter? Why are you f**king saying that?&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;I was scared, it was intimidating. I think he&amp;#039;d been drinking. Then he said, &amp;#039;I don&amp;#039;t know who you are, you&amp;#039;re nobody, you&amp;#039;ve got fake hair, fake t*ts and fake teeth. You look like a f**king horse&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;It doesn&amp;#039;t matter who I am, he shouldn&amp;#039;t be rude to anyone who asks for a picture.&amp;quot; Of Collins&amp;#039;s claims that she exhibited homophobia and possibly racism, she added: &amp;quot;He didn&amp;#039;t claim anything like that to my face. And I was with three gay guys that night &amp;quot;I feel like suing him, because I&amp;#039;m not racist or homophobic. Marcus is the rudest person I&amp;#039;ve ever met and he&amp;#039;s an idiot. &amp;quot;It seems like fame has gone to his head. He&amp;#039;s from a reality show as well, and at least I was on three series of mine.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
