No trouble in paradise here — unless you consider the Internet paradise! 

On Friday, Iggy Azalea cleared up rumors about the state of her engagement to Los Angeles Lakers player Nick Young following his cheating scandal. During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the pop star wasn’t the least bit thrown when the host brought up the subject. 


Because she is a pro, DeGeneres tread into the topic lightly. “I don’t really read any of that stuff, but I learned, because you’re on the show, there’s all this controversy?” she asked. (In other words, it wasn’t Ellen’s fault she was asking — she was just doing her job.) 

“Of course there is. There always is,” Azalea replied. “But we’re good.”

While Iggy Azalea has remained relatively tight-lipped about whether she plans to move forward with her wedding to Nick Young after new cheating allegations, the Australian rapper does have a new "Team" in her life.

Amidst all the drama with a leaked video that seemingly implicates Young in cheating on the 25-year-old emcee, Azalea dropped the music video for her new song, "Team."


"Sorry guys, the one morning i sleep in and #TEAM video drops! hahaha Check it you on Vevo," Azalea, whose real name is Amethyst Amelia Kelly, tweeted on Thursday.

In the clip, Azalea is seen driving her black Ferrari to the airport as dozens of people dressed in white run behind her. She then heads to the airport, where she spray paints a plane.


"Baby, I got me, baby, I got me, and that's all I need. Yeah, that's all I need. Baby, I got me, only friend I need playing on my team is someone like me," she sings in the chorus.

D’Angelo Russell has been isolated in the Lakers' locker room, according to ESPN, but he at least has one friend.


The source of Russell's problems stem from a leaked video he recorded of teammate Nick Young discussing affairs he's had on his girlfriend and pop star Iggy Azalea. Young and Azalea are engaged, and she took to Twitter to comment on all of the drama.

When the cheating allegations first surfaced, Azalea had this to say on a recent radio interview:


"Hey, that's part of being a basketball player. There's always something," she said. "I believe my man, and Nick is a super nice guy. It's just not really the kind of thing he would do."

Azalea previously postponed the couple's wedding for what she said were tour issues. She said they'd address the wedding again after the basketball season. Her plans could change now due to this tweet and Russell's video.

Iggy Azalea is tired of talking about her relationship. The "Team" rapper got candid, once more, on Twitter, clarifying yet again that she and NBA star Nick Young are still engaged after a video was released in which the LA Laker seemingly admits to cheating on Azalea.

"For the record, I haven't broken up with Nick," she wrote. "We are together and I would love to be given a little (a lot) of privacy on the matter."


Azalea, who is preparing to release of her second album, Digital Distortion, in June, added that she wants the focus of her future interviews to be on her career.

"I always answer questions honestly," she tweeted. "But my job is to promote my music, not my relationship. Id love to be interviewed about the former only."

Earlier this month, Azalea was forced to speak about the status of her relationship during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Iggy Azalea is making her man work to get her back in his life after a cheating scandal threatened their engagement.

Sources claims the rapper came close to ending her romance with Los Angeles Lakers star Nick Young after video footage of him boasting about his womanising ways leaked last month (Mar16), but Iggy stood by her man.


However, her engagement ring came off and she hasn't been wearing it out in public recently, prompting speculation that all was not well at home.

In a new interview with 103.7 KVIL's Leigh Ann and Courtney Kerr, Iggy revealed Nick has some explaining to do before the Australian star decides once and for all if she still wants to marry him.


"I guess I'm still engaged, I think so," the 25-year-old said. "I know I haven't called it off; I have to have a talk with him and see how the talk goes. We're not unengaged yet."

But the Fancy hitmaker insisted her man doesn't deserve "for me to be wearing his ring right now", adding, "We're not not engaged, but you have to, like, do some work for me to put the ring back on (my finger)."

The radio chat came a day after Iggy told The Burt Show her many social media feuds in 2015 made her a little less likely to jump to conclusions, suggesting she is still not sure whether or not her boyfriend has been true to her.

"(It) kinda taught me maybe it's best to just wait until it's a little more past tense before you kind of speak (about) how you feel about something," she explained. "When you're in the heat of the moment, or things are still progressing or coming out and you're getting new information, the way you feel about things can change really quickly. It can go up and down."

Iggy Azalea has admitted that if Kylie Jenner adds contour kits to her beauty range Kylie Cosmetics, she would "buy 100". The 25-year-old replied to a poll Kylie posted on Twitter in which she asked her 14.8 million followers to vote for the product they'd like to see her include – and Iggy was quick to respond.

Although the list only included eyeshadow, bronzer, eyebrow kits and loose powders, the Australian rapper revealed she had another product in mind. "@KylieJenner I think you should consider doing a contour kits," Iggy wrote.


It seems the idea was a hit with the Keeping up with the Kardashians star, who immediately replied: "Yes yes!" Kylie then wrote that she had sent Iggy a private message regarding the idea, and the Fancy hitmaker later once again took to Twitter to share her excitement. "@KylieJenner cool, I'll buy 100. lol! (sic)," she wrote.

If Kylie were to work on contouring kits she might turn to older sister Kim Kardashian, who has often been hailed as the queen of contouring by her fans, for advice. However, although the young reality TV star wanted her fans' opinions, she admitted that she is "already working on something".

Outspoken American rapper Azealia Banks has seemingly logged out of her Twitter account for good after sparking multiple controversies with her posts.

The 212 hitmaker became involved in a war of words with several people since joining the microblogging site a few years ago, feuding with fellow rapper Iggy Azalea, as well as igniting furore over her endorsement to U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump.

But on Tuesday (08Mar16), she seemed to be fed up with the platform as a whole, announcing to her nearly 550,000 followers she is quitting Twitter - however, the contentious musician did not leave quietly.

"Ok, today, i'm finally making the decision to eject from social media (sic)," she wrote. "american media culture is honestly so f**king disgusting and junky and complaining about it is not going to change it. reading s**t, seeing stupid ass articles and dumb b**ches/bros has just really filled me up with a lot of bad feelings.

"it's been a great couple of years, sharing opinions and having conversations, but i think i will be so much happier just NOT looking at this. (Americans have the WORST taste in everything.) So my friends, its time to say goodbye once and for all to this account. This account will exist no more. Time for a bit of Mystery... Goodbye."

Although Azealia's Twitter profile is deactivated, she still has open accounts on Instagram and Facebook.

This isn't the star's first hiatus from social media - in 2012, she also took a break from Twitter following a number of heated exchanges, but eventually found her way back to the site.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis caused a commotion on timelines when they delivered “White Privilege II,” the nine-minute, politically charged follow-up to the 2005 track of the same name. 


The Seattle rapper dished out bars about the perception of white acts in hip-hop who have been accused of appropriating the culture. Macklemore references Iggy Azalea, Elvis Presley and Miley Cyrus during a verse where he rhymes: “You’ve exploited and stolen the music, the moment/ The magic, the passion, the fashion, you toy with/ The culture was never yours to make better/ You’re Miley, you’re Elvis, you’re Iggy Azalea.”

Azalea even kicked up dust on her Twitter following the song’s release by tweeting, “he shouldnt have spent the last 3 yrs having friendly convos and taking pictures together at events etc if those were his feelings.”)

In Billboard’s latest cover story, Macklemore says he was actually “implicating” himself on that verse. “I don’t think people understood that I’m in my own head [saying], ‘You’re Miley, you’re Elvis, you’re Iggy Azalea’ – I’m talking about myself,“ he explains. “Iggy and I came up together. We were on the XXL 'Freshman’ cover together. There’s enough of a relationship that I should have let her know beforehand. And I didn’t do that.” And he admits quietly, when asked if he’s followed up with the Australian rapper, “I haven’t talked to her.”

She’s one shady lady! Azealia Banks is reigniting her years-long feud with fellow female hip-hop star Iggy Azalea. On Tuesday, March 1, the "212" rapper lashed out at her nemesis via Twitter after Azalea discussed their contempt for each other in a new interview.

“Like, I'm about to do something SO f‑‑king petty. You're gonna be gagging all year. I'm about to take my pettiness to a whole new level,” Banks, 24, tweeted, presumably after reading the article.  


Banks then delivered on her “petty” promise with her next slew of insults, which included an attack on Azalea’s recent plastic surgery as well as a not-so-subtle threat.

While Banks failed to tag Azalea, 25, in her latest rant, it’s pretty clear that she is taking aim at the “Fancy” singer. In a no-holds-barred chat with Elle Canada for their April cover story, the Australia native revealed her abhorrent (albeit honest) feelings for Banks.


“I think the Azealia Banks thing is what really started it all. We don’t like each other on a personal level, and that has gone on for many years — before the Black Lives Matter incident happened,” she said, referring to Banks' claim in February 2014 Azalea was "silent" on “black issues." At the time, Azalea responded by tweeting to Banks: "Theres more to sparking a change than trolling on social media. World issues shouldnt be used as a poor excuse to promote fan battles."

New year, new Iggy Azalea.

After facing her fair share of public drama in 2015, the 25-year-old rapper is readying a return to the spotlight with a new album and a new outlook. Although, if she had her way, she'd love to block 2015 out of her mind.

"If I could, I would Men in Black memory-erase 2015, I totally would -- that would be amazing!" she told Elle Canada, citing her feuds with Azalea Banks and Papa John's Pizza as two of her biggest regrets. "But in a weird way I'm glad for it all. Because of what happened, there were a lot of friendships that I ended up rekindling and people I started working with again. It made me reflect and change things that I may not have even considered changing before. So, I'm really glad that it all happened."

But don't expect to see her snapping selfies with Banks anytime soon.

"I still hate Azalea Banks," she said point blank.

"We don't like each other on a personal level, and that has gone on for many years -- before the Black Lives Matter incident happened," she explained. "So when I dismissed her, people started to think that I dismissed the whole movement, but I wasn't trying to dismiss Black Lives Matter -- I was trying to dismiss her because it's our personal s***. I don't think the subject matter of her tweet was invalid; I just think it was emotionally charged and driven by something else, and the whole thing got so misconstrued."

These ladies are so comfortable with their bodies and their choices that they were happy to tell the world about their breast implants!

Iggy Azalea
The Aussie rapper told the April edition of US Vogue about having her breasts enlarged in December 2014. When asked what body part she might like to change, her honest answer surprised many. "I did change something: Four months ago, I got bigger boobs!" Iggy told the mag, explaining: "I'd thought about it my entire life."



The Big Bang Theory star admitted in Cosmopolitan last year that she got breast implants while staring on the show 8 Simple Rules in 2004. And Cuoco has never looked back! The 29-year-old actress said she has never regretted the surgery, insisting it was "the best decision I ever made."

Kourtney Kardashian

Not much is secret in the Kardashian clan, especially not their love of plastic surgery. "I have had breast implants, but it's so funny 'cause it's not a secret. I could care less," she explained on Nightline. Kardashian, who has three children with partner Scott Disick, joked that her "boobs have, like, tripled since breastfeeding."

Kelly Rowland

"I wanted to get breast implants when I was 18, but my mum and Beyoncé's mum told me to really think about it first," Kelly once told Shape mag. "I took their advice and waited 10 years. Once I felt ready, I tried on padded bras and walked around in them to see how it would feel. You have to know what you're getting, no matter what type of surgery it is." Someone did her homework!


Jenni "JWoww" Farley

The Jersey Shore cast member just had a "ten year boob makeover" after the birth of her daughter, Meilani. "You know, they recommend changing them every 10 years and I've had them for over 10 years, so it was time!" she blogged. "Now they are nice and bouncy!!! I kept them the same size, so they are still Fs. I just switched them out from breastfeeding!"

Macklemore is naming names.

The rapper dropped a new track, titled “White Privilege II,” on Thursday, off his upcoming album, This Unruly Mess I’ve Made. In the nearly nine-minute song, he calls out the likes of Iggy Azalea and Miley Cyrus for cultural appropriation.


“You’ve exploited and stolen, the music, the moment / the magic, the passion, the fashion you toy with,” he rhymes. “The culture was never yours to make better / You’re Miley, you’re Elvis, you’re Iggy Azalea.”

When a fan specifically asked about Macklemore’s song, she responded, “he shouldnt have spent the last 3 yrs having friendly convos and taking pictures together at events etc if those were his feelings.” Another fan told the rapper she shouldn’t “give a f**k,” and she tweeted back, “trust me, i dont. lol”

2015 was an extremely trying year for Iggy Azalea and it looks like 2016 may be heading in that same direction, too, because Iggy believes her record label is trying to sabotage her.

Even though it was only released two weeks ago, Iggy says Virgin/EMI is disappointed “Azillion” isn’t turning out to be as successful as her previous hit, “Fancy,” and will not be funding a music video for the song as a result. “My record label Virgin/EMI seems to feel the response to my viral record “Azillion” wasn’t good enough,” Iggy revealed to her disappointed fans. “I’m not allowed a video.” Iggy also says the label wants her to link with a pop star and chase radio, tweeting, “They expect me to find a pop star to wack onto a radio friendly song with me rapping the verses.”

Iggy Azalea established a large and loyal following on social media mostly because of her willingness to share the details of her “Fancy” life. But when the conversation recently shifted from with her to about her, more specifically her body, the Australian rapper abandoned all platforms for a digital detox, hoping to escape the negativity. 

At 5 feet ten inches tall, with a small waist and Kim Kardashian-like butt, Azalea’s no stranger to others critiquing her physique. “When I first got to the States, people told me I should think about modeling,” the 24-year-old told Vogue in the magazine’s April issue. She was asked to lose weight, get a nose job, and alter her appearance in other ways eight years ago. “I was looking in the mirror a little differently,” she admitted, speaking to the obviously adverse impact on her self-esteem.

Azalea is right to take into consideration the young girls that look up to her. “Young girls who worship celebrities are the ones most likely to be influenced by things like the fact that they’ve had plastic surgery,” Dr. Diana Zuckerman, President of the National Center for Health Research, tells Yahoo Style. “Celebrity worship is associated with an increase in girls wanting to have plastic surgery even if the celebrity hasn’t talked about having it.” Young girls, in particular 12- to 13-year-olds, are the most vulnerable and self-conscious about their bodies. And while body confidence does tend to improve over time, the fact that famous people are held as standards to strive for, still negatively impresses upon the highly impressionable generation.

A million? A billion? A trillion? Nope, Iggy Azalea is aiming much higher on her new track “Azillion.” 

The Australian rapper shared the club-ready new track on her SoundCloud page Friday night (Jan. 8), calling it a “Buzz Track… 4 My Ratz.” Full of pounding synths mixed with dizzying trap beats, “Azillion” arrives ahead of her sophomore album, Digital Distortion.

Listen to “Azillion” below.

In late December, Azalea announced that the lead single from Digital Distortion – which doesn’t yet have a release date – would be a track titled “Team.”

Say what? Nick Young called wedding planning with fiancée Iggy Azalea a “nightmare” in an interview released on Tuesday, January 5.

“Whew, a nightmare in its own,” the Los Angeles Lakers star, 30, told Billboard of planning his nuptials with the “Fancy” rapper, 25. “I think we should go to the courthouse. It’s tough, it takes a lot of time and compromising and arguing but eventually the women always win. I think wedding days should just be women’s day.”

The athlete proposed to the Aussie rapper last June, with a $500,000, 10.43-carat yellow diamond ring. In August the “Black Widow” songstress told the Daily Telegraph that it was anything but love at first sight for the couple.

“I hated him,” she joked to the Australian newspaper. “I thought he was an arsehole.”

The reason? In 2008 Azalea attended a pool party where Young and other NBA stars were hanging out — but a meet between them never happened, she said, because she quickly left.

It should come as no surprise that Iggy Azalea is going “Fancy” for her upcoming wedding.

The Australian rapper, who’s engaged to Los Angeles Lakers star Nick Young, gave her fans a peek at her wedding day look. On Wednesday, the 25-year-old songstress posted a carefully angled photo of a sketch — she didn’t want to give too much away! — which was created by the label Giorgio Armani Privé. There was also a fabric swatch.

One fan’s trash may be another’s treasure, but when it comes to music videos, even our favorite songs can be ruined by awkward acting, poor production, derivative themes, dorky dance moves, or simply dreadful ideas. In 2015, we saw all of the above and then some, often by big stars, which meant that in many cases the worst were also the most popular. But were they so bad they were good or just bad period? You be the judge.
