Iggy Azalea

Sometimes being the bigger person, rising above it all, not stooping to their level etc. is hard work, and Iggy Azalea has decided to just be honest about what she thinks of her ex Nick Young and his newly emerged pregnant ex-beau Keonna Green. And by that we mean a middle finger.

Iggy AzaleaIggy Azalea responds to Keonna Green's pregnancy

Yep, a rude gesture was pretty much all Iggy Azalea had to say on the matter as she was quizzed on the subject by paparazzi when she arrived at an airport in Australia. You can't really blame her; she's been incredibly strong in the wake of her split with fiance Nick Young, after she discovered he'd been cheating on her with several girls who he'd been taking back to their home.

Out For Blood! The Veronicas Lash Out At Iggy Azalea For Fur Coat Shot


Iggy Azalea The Veronicas

Iggy Azalea is really not having the best time at the moment. She's currently going through a bit of a messy break-up with Nick Young, and now musical duo The Veronicas have lashed out at her for wearing a fur jacket. In fact, we don't even know if it was a fur jacket. 

Iggy AzaleaIggy Azalea attacked on Twitter by The Veronicas

It could be faux fur for all we know; either way, the twins aren't taking it lying down. Lisa Origliasso and Jessica Origliasso, who happen to be very vocal supporters of various animal rights groups, slammed the rapper on Twitter after MTV Australia posted an MTV Battle Tweet with the caption: 'Can Iggy take on the twins?' They coupled the post with a photo of the pair in denim dungarees alongside a shot of Iggy Azalea in a large fur coat.

Iggy Azalea Says She Is The One Moving Out Of Home, Not Nick Young


Iggy Azalea

Iggy Azalea has had her fair share of eyes on her since she announced her break-up with fiancé Nick Young two days ago, but not everything you see is quite as it appears. For example, yesterday Nick Young’s car was pictured being towed from the couple’s home, but that doesn't mean Iggy had anything to do with it.

On Monday photos were published showing Nick's blue 1962 Chevy Impala that Iggy had bought him for Christmas in 2014 being towed from the couple’s house. TMZ had reported that Iggy had the car towed after the break-up was announced.

Iggy Azalea

They are never ever getting back together, it would seem. Just a day after the news broke that Iggy Azalea and her fiancé Nick Young had called off their engagement, it’s become pretty clear who did the dumping, as Iggy had a car that she had bought for him for Christmas towed away from her home.

The Australian rapper gifted Young the 1962 Chevy Impala for Christmas back in 2014, a long time before the recent allegations of cheating that engulfed the NBA star came to light earlier this year.

Iggy Azalea Prevents Nick Young From Getting Mis-Spelled Back Tattoo


Iggy Azalea

Though they’re reportedly the midst of relationship difficulties, Nick Young has his fiancée Iggy Azalea to thank for preventing him from making a different kind of huge mistake – a mis-spelled tattoo!

The 25 year old Australian rapper took to social media to show her devotion to her man by sharing how she stopped him from getting a huge tattoo spelled incorrectly across his back. Writing on Twitter on Wednesday night (April 27th) to her six million followers, she said:

“Guys, I wanna let you know. Nick can’t spell and if it wasn’t for the LOVE I have for him. He would have ‘BORN REBLE’ tatted across his back,” she recounted about the NBA player’s narrow scrape with major embarrassment.

Iggy Azalea

In the wake of the recent high-profile cheating scandal involving her NBA player fiancé Nick Young, Iggy Azalea has issued an alarming and somewhat graphic warning to her husband-to-be if he’s ever unfaithful to her again.

The 25 year old rapper, who recently released her new single ‘Team’ ahead of her second studio album, was a guest on Miami radio show Wild 94.1’s ‘Orlando & The Freakshow’ last Friday (April 8th).

Since news broke that Vivid CEO Steve Hirsch has seen footage of an alleged sex tape involving Iggy Azalea and an ex-boyfriend, the rapper's representatives have adamantly denied she ever made an X-rated film, and they are now threatening the porn company with legal action.

Vivid Entertainment May Or May Not Have An Iggy Azalea Sex Tape - But If They Release It, The Rapper Will SUE


Iggy Azalea

There might be a lot of reasons to dislike Iggy Azalea’s media presence, but we’re kinda siding with her on the whole sex tape issue. Privacy is a big deal in Hollywoodland and Iggy Iggs might be about to have hers encroached upon by an alleged sex tape about to be released by porn distributor Vivid Entertainment.

Iggy Azalea
While Vivid might have a recording, Iggy isn't having any of their threats.

According to TMZ, Iggy has already threatened the company with a lawsuit, if they use I-G-G-Y’s name in the title (or anywhere in the video), since the stage name and brand are protected by copyright law.

Iggy Azalea - Black Widow ft. Rita Ora Single Review


Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora come together in the new single 'Black Widow', to bring us a song about a failed relationship that causes the titular black widow personality to come out and avenge said relationship. But is this pairing a match made in heaven, or will it go on to stain these artists' careers?

Iggy Azalea - Black Widow  ft. Rita Ora Single Review

Australian rapper Iggy Azalea and British singer Rita Ora both adopt different accents (and vocal pitch, in Azalea's case) in their career, so it makes sense that these two 'acts' are combining for what amounts to little more than an imitation performance of soulless hip-hop and pop music. Incidentally, the accompanying music video is an upsettingly awkward rip-off of 'Kill Bill', even down to Michael Madson's unfortunate inclusion.

The hook is sung by Rita Ora and, thankfully, plays out as the most bearable part of the whole track. Her voice introduces real heart into the otherwise desolate wasteland of this single - supposedly where creativity went to die. However, despite her voice, the hook is totally forgettable. Written by Stargate (Tor Erik Hermansen and Mikkel Storleer Eriksen), Benjamin Levin, Katy Perry, Sarah Hudson and Azalea, the lyrics are repetitious and the beat sounds bleak and empty.

Iggy Azalea Struggles To Stay On Stage


Iggy Azalea Nicki Minaj Rita Ora

While the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) are clearly prestigious and a desirable addition to any artists’ award collection, it would seem that they are also more than a little hazardous - as Australian rapper Iggy Azalea found out on Friday (22 August) night. The Fancy hit-maker was performing a pre-MTV VMAs concert with Charlie XCX at the Avalon Theatre in Hollywood when she backed right off stage.

From Stages To Film Sets: Singers Who Have Traded Microphones For Acting Careers


Andre 3000 Harley Sylvester Rita Ora Iggy Azalea Adam Levine Rihanna Rizzle Kicks Joss Stone Justin Bieber

It seems if you can sing, you should be able to act with a whole host of super singers putting down their microphones and picking up a script instead. Justin Timberlake has made one of the most impressive transferences from stage to screen with exciting supporting roles in hits including The Social Network and the Coen brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis and taking the lead role opposite Mila Kunis in Friends With Benefits. 

Beyoncé successfully combined both singing and acting in the musical drama, Dreamgirls, and also tried her hand at pure acting in everyone's favourite detective film, The Pink Panther and in American thriller, Obsessed

Of course, there are some popstars that are unlikely to ever find themselves in Oscar contention, such as Justin Bieber following his role in two episodes of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation back in 2010, and Joss Stone's slightly more substantial TV role as Anne of Cleves in The Tudors. But which serious fan of The Spice Girls didn't love their whirlwind musical comedy Spice World? And who didn't enjoy Britney Spears' turn in the girls on tour comedy Crossroads

The pair were wearing very little for their surprise duet; Iggy showing off most of her bod in a black Chromat bralet with black underwear and mesh shorts, while Rita had unzipped her heavy print cropped jacket to reveal a simple black bra underneath (though she did at least cover up with a skirt on the bottom half).

The duo performed a much appreciated rendition of Iggy's latest single 'Black Widow' with her collaborator at the event; a song that was co-written by Katy Perry, Sarah Hudson, Benny Blanco and duo StarGate.

Ariana Grande - Problem Single Review


Former Nickelodeon actress Ariana Grande has landed her very first number one alongside Iggy Azalea with her collaborative new tune 'Problem'. And not only that, she's even made history by becoming the first chart topper to also succeed in having the most streams in accordance to the reformed Official Singles Chart. It presents high hopes for her forthcoming second album 'My Everything' due out later this summer - but goodness knows why.

Ariana Grande ft. Iggy Azalea - Problem Single Review

'Problem' opens with a quirky, celebratory trumpet and Iggy Azalea outlining her hip hop influence with her brief introduction. Ariana then breaks in with an impressively bland, generic pop verse, frequenting such unusually sung lines as 'baby' and 'I want you'. You have to hand it to her, her voice does reach some unbelievable heights throughout, but in a song so void of feeling and originality, it seems so wasted.

As the chorus approaches, you've got the attempt at sexiness with the whispered 'I got one less problem without ya' which just feels painfully cheesy. Iggy's entrance hardly feels like an improvement either, with her highly predictable spin on Jay-Z's '99 Problems': 'I got 99 problems but you won't be one' - seriously?! It's true Iggy can spit with epic speed, but she's hardly going to change hip hop.

Feud? Nicki Minaj Takes A Swipe At Iggy Azalea At BET Awards


Nicki Minaj Iggy Azalea

Nicki Minaj and her relationship with fellow rapper Iggy Azalea are the subject of speculation today after it emerged that Nicki made some offhand, and rather pointed remarks at last night's BET Awards. The 'Superbass' singer picked up the Best Female Hip Hop award at the event but seemed to detonate a pretty heavy diss during her acceptance speech.

The self-aggrandising rap singer wanted to set a few things straight during her speech and sai "What I want the world to know about Nicki Minaj is, that when you hear Nicki Minaj spit, Nicki Minaj wrote it." Immediately, the room took Nicki's words as venom against Iggy Azalea, who is rumoured to use ghost writers.

As everyone laughed and looked shocked, Nicki immediately tried to retract what she said, "No, no, no shade. No, no, no shade." However, like it or not, the diss had been made.

'Weird Al' Yankovic Returns With New Album: What We Know So Far


Weird Al Yankovic Iggy Azalea

‘Weird Al’ Yankovic is back at it again, but it might just be for the last time in a long time. The master of pop parodies spent the past couple of days hyping up an announcement, and finally let the news out with a tweet him dressed in a Russian-style military outfit with text that says “July 15.” So, a new album is coming – his first since his 2011 release, Alpocalypse - but what in the world does the uniform have to do with anything? He’s ‘Weird Al’ for a reason though, so it won’t be long until everything (kind of) starts to make sense.

Weird Al Showtime'Weird Al' will release his new album on July 15

As for his final album, it’s something that’s only been speculated, but the upcoming record is going to be the last of his current record contract. Yankovic addressed the rumors in a blog post last year, stating, “if you were led to believe that I’m planning on retiring anytime soon, I’m not (sorry, haters). I truly love what I do, and if I ever stop working, it won’t be of my own free will.” It doesn’t seem like he’s planning to call it quits anytime soon, but why should he anyway? On July 15, the album released will be his fifteenth of his career, so there’s really no point to stop now, right? Especially since there’s so many new songs to make fun of all the time!

New And Improved Billboard Charts, Now With Extra Twitter


Iggy Azalea Tyga Shakira

In its latest bid to track current musical trends more accurately (and purely to stay relevant, if we’re being honest), Billboard has introduced two new musical charts, fueled entirely by social media buzz. The first one, cleverly titled Trending 140, ranks how heavily songs are shared on Twitter in the U.S., tracking acceleration over the past hour. The Emerging Artists chart is a weekly chart of the most-shared songs by “up-and-coming artists.”

Social media queen Iggy Azalea predictably topped the Trending 140 chart's first edition.

Billboard president John Amato explains that the two new charts represent the culmination of a long-standing effort to incorporate real time data into the charts.

Iggy Azalea Is "Fancy"-er Than Ever At Billboard Awards


Iggy Azalea

When future civilizations look back on 21st century pop culture - which they will, if Doctor Who has taught us anything – Iggy Azalea’s performamce at the Billboard Awards on Sunday will be regarded as a career defining move. It was the night Iggy officially went mainstream (in the “very popular and widely recongized” sense, not the way hipsters mean it). In keeping with the Clueless/high school theme she’s been rocking since Fancy came out, the Aussie rapper took the stage in a cheerleader outfit, along with a whole squad of actual cheerleaders and guest vocalist Charlie XCX. The sass was real.

Iggy Azalea

Rapper Iggy Azalea has making waves in the music business for what seems like ages now, actually it’s only just under two years since she released her Glory EP. Now Iggy's finally unleashed her debut album the modestly entitled The New Classic and she's looking to break into the mainstream once and for all. Surely there’s got to be a market for a blonde Australian female rapper?

Iggy AzaleaAre you ready for The New Classic from Iggy Azalea?

Born Amethyst Amelia Kelly in Sydney Australia, the single ‘Work’, which features on The New Classic, probably gives the best account of Iggy’s journey to America to find fame as a rapper. But to summarise, growing up in New South Wales, where her family relocated after her birth, Iggy felt like an outsider in her small town thanks to her love of hip hop and rap music. At sixteen, the aspiring MC decided to make the move to America to pursue her dream, arriving in Miami by herself after telling her parents she was going on holiday.

Singer Selena Gomez showed the world just how far away she'd travelled from being a Disney Channel princess by performing the inaugural concert of her 'Stars Dance' tour in Vancouver, Canada. However, the 21 year-old had revealed how nervous she was to be taking to the stage in front of thousands of fans and remember her lyrics as well as those complicated dance moves.

Selena Entertained Her Canadian Fans.

Speaking to MTV in the run up to the show, Gomez said "once the first two songs are out of my system, I feel a little bit better, and then I'm able to let loose." That's exactly what Selena did, coming out on stage to tonnes of screaming fans to perform a track from each of her albums, Bang Bang Bang and Round & Round. During the show, she played plenty of her own songs, such as the fan-favourite 'Love You Like A Love Song,' but also covered tracks from Rihanna, Iggy Azalea and Lorde.
