Iggy Azalea Maxim Cover 2014: 'Fancy' and 'Black Widow' Rapper Slams Team For Using Old Photo
Iggy Azalea tops Maxim Australia's Hot 100, but the rapper is not exactly happy about.
More specifically, she is not OK with the picture that was used. Azalea is wearing a gold bathing suit in the 2011 image, and she went on Twitter to explain her disapproval.
"This morning I see you've allowed Maxim Australia to buy an image from a 2011 Complex mag shoot and put it on the cover," she said.
The comment appeared to be directed to her management team.
But she also tried to clarify that she appreciated being included on the cover.
"I think it's awesome anyone would want me on the cover of a magazine, but there's a right way to make that happen and the Australian label clearly aren't respecting my wishes," she said. "A magazine cover deserves an accompanying photoshoot not a reused image. Maxim Australia, thanks for the love and I'm sorry no one asked me. Would have love to have given an interview & done a shoot with u guys."
In July, Azalea was featured on the cover of Australia Cosmopolitan, but the glossy was criticized for slimming down the rapper.
The magazine said that it didn't do any photoshopping on Azalea and said it was not standard to slim down any of the women featured on the magazine.
"We think Iggy is fantastic and should be celebrated, which is why we've put her on the cover of Cosmo," the magazine said.
Azalea also had a feud with Snoop Dogg recently. It started off with Snoop Dogg posting a picture and saying it reminded him of Azalea, which she was offended by. He went on to insult her once more before saying that T.I. helped them make up.
Snoop said he wouldn't do it again, and Azalea tweeted that she accepted what he said.
