Iggy Azalea says people only hate her because its the cool thing to do
A few days ago, I talked about how Iggy Azalea pulled out of the Pittsburgh Pride parade after protests by LGBT groups. She’s now been replaced by Nick Jonas, who said, “I had to find a way to help.” An interesting backstory — Nick was scheduled to open for Iggy on her arena tour. He pulled out months ago, and she couldn’t find a new opening act. No one wanted to sign onto this mess, which was one of several reasons why Iggy’s whole tour was cancelled. Iggy tried to explain the situation as as needing time off. But Iggy’s team wouldn’t have ditched her very first arena tour if ticket sales were strong.
Star magazine presents another reason why Iggy decided to stay home. Pregnancy!
Iggy Azalea’s $500,00 engagement ring may be Fancy, but it looks liek her recent betrothal to NBA star Nick “Swaggy P” Young may have some very pragmatic roots. “There are whispers in their group of friends that Iggy is pregnant,” says a source close to the singer. “She’s quit drinking and is always nauseous. Everything thinks this is the real reason she cancelled her tour.”

Maybe Iggy is pregnant, who knows. This could be a planted story by her team. Meanwhile, remember how Iggy quit social media? Those days are over. Iggy can’t stop tweeting, which means more trouble is on the horizon. Yesterday saw a flurry of entries, and here are some of them. She still thinks she’s a “good” rapper, you can tell:
(1) also i got some kind of laser skin peel thing a few days ago and now i look like “two face” from batman.
(2) my fish is named timothy
(3) its really tough to stick by someone when the “cool” thing is to hate on them. thanks to everyone who made the choice to stand by me.
(4) one thing iam thankful for is how strong its made my relationship with the amazing man iam going to marry.
(5) Also im making a book. i guess you could say its a coffee table book… its all pictures. my friend Brock Fetch has been taking them for me
(6) obviously the tour isnt happening but brock and i figured that shouldnt mean we stop documenting stuff. BTS of life not just the stage.
(7) i love all the old authentic, warm, candid pictures that make you feel like you could close your eyes and be there.
(8) @buterascrowns not really other than that i scraped an entire 6 months of work and started totally new
(9) @Chillinlaidback its too early to tell yet exactly how things will sound overall, but im not looking to abandon my identity.

Iggy covered lots of ground here. She discussed her red-faced salon visits. She mentions scrapping her whole album to start fresh. I’ve heard whispers that Iggy might drop her fake accent for the next album, but that probably won’t happen. Oh, and the coffee table book sounds sketchy. Iggy wants to include a bunch of old-timey photos, which would be pics from before her obvious plastic surgeries. Maybe she’ll simply use some Instagram filters to achieve the same effect on new photos.
