Iggy Azalea and Nick Young are a classic case of men and women experiencing breakups differently.

The “Fancy” singer split from her NBA baller fiancé after she caught him bringing random women into their home, and as if that wasn’t heartbreaking enough, Iggy then found out he’d gotten his baby’s mother pregnant with his second child. While Iggy mourned her relationship, saying publicly that it was “like a second shot to the chest,” Nick continued to make a spectacle of himself with jokes.

A little over a month later and my, how the tables have turned.

TMZ caught up with Nick and asked about his recent trip to the furniture store in pajamas. “I’m going through something in life right now,” he responded with a laugh before driving off. Looks like it all finally dawned on him.

Meanwhile, Iggy’s production company “Azalea Street” just signed on to create some original content for NBCUniversal, plus she’s got some new digs that she’s settling into nicely.

Head over to her Instagram to see just how good she’s doing. Nick, it’ll be alright, bruh.

Iggy Azalea is one brave soul.

Since the start of her career, she hasn’t been afraid to face rumors and naysayers head-on. In true form, the rapper recently appeared on Nick Cannon‘s Wild ‘N Out and nothing was off-limits.

One member of the ‘Platinum Team’ garnered up the courage to ask, “I just want to say I think you’re real beautiful. And myself, my castmates, and every dude in here would really like to know how much of that booty is really real.”

The Australian emcee answered – sort of: “It’s real in your hands. But y’all don’t need to be worried about booty that’s above your weight class.”

We’ll take it. Check out the clip above to watch Iggy wild out and catch Wild ‘N Out Thursday at 10 p.m. on MTV.

Are Iggy Azalea and Nick Young talking again? According to his bro Gilbert Arenas, it’s possible.

In a short clip recently shared by Baller Alert, a voice that we can only assume belongs to Arenas can be heard taunting a man who appears to be Nick Young on the phone.

“Whatchu and Iggy talkin’ about?!” he asks. “Come on, na! We got st to do! We got bs to fk! We got hs to get!”

Instagram Photo

Of course, there’s no way to tell if who we’re looking at in the video is, in fact, Nick Young and whether or not that was Iggy on the phone, but it wouldn’t come as a surprise.

Just recently, TMZ caught up with the NBA ball player after his questionable pajama-clad furniture shopping spree. When asked why he was dressed as if he was about spend the night in the furniture store, Young humorously responded, “I’m going through something in life right now.”

Instagram Photo

All jokes aside, perhaps he was actually trying to tell us something?

Meanwhile, Iggy’s chilling.

The duo split a few months back, after Iggy caught girls in the house she shared with Nick—and his ex turned up pregnant again.

Stay tuned. With friends like Arenas, it’s only a matter of time before something new (and NSFW) hits social media.

Nick Young‘s tapping into his inner petty…but what’s new?

We imagined that the NBA baller wasn’t too thrilled when he heard about Iggy Azalea rebounding with French Montana – but apparently, he’s happy for her. When TMZ photogs asked if it hurts to see his ex-fiancée with the rapper, Swaggy P responded “No man, I’m happy,” before sarcastically adding, “I wish they’d get married.”

In fact, he says he’s so cool with French dating Iggy that he’ll buy his album. Iggy called it quits after finding out Nick was bringing random women into their home. She later found out he was also having a second kid with his baby’s mother Keonna Green, who by the way, did a full-on interview about her longtime relationship with the baller.

Watch Nick respond to Iggy and French in the video below.

French Montana and Iggy Azalea haven’t sealed the deal yet, but there’s hope.

TMZ caught up with the “Fancy” rapper and asked about her budding new relationship with hip-hop’s finest. Iggy was all smiles, but kept her cards close to her chest (Swaggy P, who?!). In case you missed it, the two spent some time together on a yacht in the middle of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where a fresh-faced Iggy kissed French with the kind of passion we don’t often see.

On her way out of LAX Sunday, Iggy responded to dating rumors by reminding photogs she’s “single…,” but shrugged her shoulders slyly when asked if she and French could ever be together. The smooch must have been really good, because she also said he has an “above 5” chance at making it happen. The odds are in his favor.

Somewhere on the other side of town, her ex-fiancé Nick Young has suddenly become entangled in Derrick Rose’s Jane Doe rape case – it seems all that messing around on Iggy is really starting to bite him in the ass. Watch TMZ get the scoop on Iggy playing the field here.

Iggy Azalea and French Montana have yet to announce their relationship, but judging by the pics of the pair riding yachts and making out, they’re in some type of situation.

Iggy took to Instagram to show off a gift from her new man and it’s nothing short of flawless. French gave the “Fancy” rapper seven blinged out diamond rings. She posted the photo above with the caption, “He told me pressure makes diamonds 💙 @FrenchMontana.”

The pair was first spotted partying together in a Las Vegas nightclub in July, then vacationed in Mexico the next month. But who knew they were far enough along to give diamond rings (plural) as a gift?

French moves pretty fast.

Max B could be home in as little as two years, according to French Montana.

The Coke Boyz rapper hit up HOT 97 last night to talk to Funk Flex about the Wave God, then discussed his blossoming relationship with Iggy Azalea. French says though they’ve known each other for a long time, he never approached the blonde rapper because she already had a man. And as far as their relationship goes, French says he’s just “out here having fun, enjoying life.”

Here are a couple more interesting excerpts concerning Max B.

On how Max B got his time reduced:

“He took a plea deal, ’cause them numbers was crazy they gave him – that whole 75 years, ’cause he blew trial. So when he took the plea deal and they just knocked down the years from 75 to 20. But he already got almost 10 years in.” 

On when Max B will be home:

“He can come home as early as two years, but if he fucks it up in there (excuse my language), he could do up to six.” 

Listen to French’s call in full below. Hopefully, it won’t be long before we’re welcoming Max B home.

Green’s pregnancy became public this summer while people were still buzzing about Young and Iggy Azalea’s relationship.

According to TMZ, Young rushed from a game against the Houston Rockets to be there for Baby Navi’s delivery. Iggy recently blamed the delay of her new album on the drama from her relationship with Nick.

Being named GQ Australia’s “Woman of the Year” is a dream come true for rapper Iggy Azalea, but you’d never guess why.

Between leaving her cheating ex Nick Young and dealing with countless album delays, the sexy lyricist has had a really rough year – but all that’s behind her now that she’s been named the magazine’s baddest.

Instagram Photo

She gave some insight into why it’s such an honor to win the “Woman of the Year” award in particular, telling all those in attendance: “I just want to give a big thank you to GQ for this award. I’ve won a lot of awards over the last few years, but this one means the absolute most to me because I can finally say I have an award winning vagina. Thank you.”

Iggy equated “Woman of the Year” to “Vagina of the Year” and explained that it’s funny because in the media, women are reduced to vaginas:

“I’m excited [about my award]. I like to call it ‘Vagina of the Year’ though,” she said. “I don’t know why it cracks me up, I just think it’s funny to reduce myself down to a vagina sometimes. ‘Vagina of the Year’ is a big achievement, number one Australian pussy. People won’t get the joke, but it’s funny because [in the media] women are reduced to vaginas. Some days I’m a vagina, others I’m a human.”

Oh, Iggy. Check out her steamy GQ images above.

Iggy Azalea has always been transparent about going under the knife. In a recent Instagram post, the Aussie rapper showed love to the man behind her new and improved look: Beverly Hills-based plastic surgeon Dr. Ashkan Ghavami.

Instagram Photo

 

Iggy wished Dr. Ghavami a happy birthday and applauded him for not only giving her the best nose and breast augmentation surgery money can buy. but also for encouraging women to own their bodies.

“Happy birthday @DrGhavami,” she wrote in the caption. “It might seem obvious I’d hold the man I owe my fabulous nose and breasts to in high regard. But vanity aside; Ash you’re hilarious as hell, talented, eclectic, a progressive thinker & someone who supports women in their choice to do what they want with their OWN bodies (tons of men don’t share that sentiment). So cheers to you! I’m proud to call you my friend.”

Iggy, who is currently dating French Montanaadmitted to getting a nose job this past May. Prior to that, she received a new set of breast implants. And trust – there’s not shame in her game. “I don’t think you should be ashamed if you made a change to yourself, which is why I’ve spoken about the changes I’ve made, like with my breasts,” she told Seventeen Magazine.

After getting rid of her cheating ex, Iggy Azalea is having tons of fun in the guy department. Look at God.

The Aussie rapper was spotted getting her ass grabbed on a boat off the coast of Cabo San Lucas – and this time, the ass grabber wasn’t former BF French Montana, although we are aware of how much he appreciates her curves.

Iggy looked super comfy and sun-kissed in the arms of her new bae, a music producer by the name of Ljay Currie, according to TMZ. Currie boasted a handful of booty, as Iggy sported a red bikini and straight backs for the occasion.

Unfortunately for Iggy, her butt didn’t make the best impression on camera. In fact, accusations that she had plastic surgery to enhance her bottom resurfaced with these paparazzi shots. “wtf is wrong with her butt,” one user wrote on Instagram, while another said, “Her ass looks so fake 😒.”

Take a look at the latest pics of Iggy below and let us know your thoughts. On another note, bae’s kind of cute.

Although Iggy Azalea seems to be doing just fine after splitting from French Montana, her rumored new beau kept a piece of French in their relationship.

TMZ reports that music producer Ljay Currie, who was spotted getting cozy with Iggy while in Mexico, has been wearing one of the diamond rings French bought for the star. Currie posted a photo of himself on Instagram rocking the blinged out pinky ring with a caption that may have been a shot aimed at French…or any of Iggy’s exes. Inspired by the Migos, he wrote, “Bitch I’m a dog, Roof.”

Instagram Photo

After the photo of Currie rocking the ring made its rounds on the internet, French took to Twitter to clap back, tweeting (and deleting), “Play with my emotions I’m shoot your punk Asss … lol.”

He continued:

Iggy was gifted the bling just over three months ago and she and French split just before New Year’s Eve. No word on whether or not the rings are actually from French, but if they are, Ljay must want problems with the boogie down Bronxster.

Iggy Azalea Reveals The Bizarre Way She Lost 15 Lbs. In One Week

Iggy Azalea is a name we haven’t heard making headlines in a while (besides her recent fling with French Montana), but she’s back with more side-eye worthy news.

The rapper claims she lost a whopping 15 lbs. in one week from twerking so much in her new music video for “Mo Bounce.”  Iggy stopped by New Zealand radio station Nova 96.9 and told hosts Fitzy and Wippa, “It’s a lot—I went on a meal plan before the video because I knew I would have to be dancing fairly skimpily dressed. I did a lot of rehearsals actually, and man I lost 15 pounds in a week dancing to that song!”

The Aussie emcee did admit that she got a little help with her twerking skill before the shoot, “I did take classes. I do have someone who is very, very good at twerking, and she helped me. I never realized how flexible you have to be to do that stuff. My teacher was like ‘I really suggest you take yoga’ and I didn’t know you had to take yoga to be a twerker but apparently you do.”

If Iggy Azalea’s logic is true, then every exotic dancer should be apart of the “what waist?” squad. Check out the video for “Mo Bounce” above and you be the judge.

Odell Beckham Jr. Ditched His Team Practice To Hook Up With This Female Rapper

Odell Beckham Jr. has been doing his own thing recently and it might rub some people the wrong way over at the New York Giants.

Beckham recently missed a practice with the team in New Jersey to hang out with, wait for it…Iggy Azalea. The two of them partied together at Bowlero Woodland Hills bowling center in Los Angeles, according to Page Six. “They were with a small group of friends and rented the full venue out for their group, just having fun, bowling and eating throughout their visit,” a source from the venue said. The source claimed Beckham and Azalea were “being romantic with each other throughout their outing, giggling and cozying up to each other. Odell showed up at 8.45 p.m. with three friends. At first he seemed like he wanted to remain private, he was bowling in his own lane, but later he started flirting with Iggy, they were sitting together away from the group, chatting and laughing. They all left together shortly before midnight.”

This wouldn’t be the first time Beckham has skipped practice. He also missed a session to have a work out with notorious party guy Johnny Manziel.There’s an Instagram post of Manzel and Beckham together to prove it.

In January, Giants general manager, Jerry Reese, insisted Beckham could use a little reality check. “I see a guy who needs to think about some of the things that he does,” Reese said. “Everybody knows he’s a gifted player, but there’s some things that he’s done that he needs to look at himself in the mirror and be honest with himself.”

Beckham doesn’t seem to be worried over all the fuss. He tweeted on Wednesday, “If they don’t have a story these days they’ll make one… I might get that tatted #staythecourse.”

Looks like Odell ain’t sweating it.

Within her few short years in the music industry, Iggy Azalea has been linked to some of Hollywood’s hottest celebrities.

The Australian rapper has publicly dated Nick Young and French Montana, but what about the rumors that she’s been getting cozy with Odell Beckham Jr.? TMZ caught up with Iggs as she was leaving LAX and asked her whether or not she and Odell were a thing. Although she did confirm that they were both at the Bowlero bowling alley in L.A. last Monday night, and they did pose for a group photo together, that was about it for their encounter.

“Literally, I don’t even know Odell Beckham. I don’t. He was at my friend’s party and we took a picture with a bunch of people. That’s it.” After reporters pressed her about whether she’d consider dating the NFL player, the rapper insisted that she doesn’t even know that there was no “cozying up” or “being romantic,” like some sources suggested.

The “Fancy” rapstress added that she doesn’t even watch football and has no idea what position Odell plays. Maybe she decided to take a break from love to get back to the music.

If the rumors were true, do you think they would make a cute Hollywood couple?

Is 2017 really the year of reconciliation?

Iggy Azalea and Azealia Banks have had beef since both ladies were on the come up, back in 2011. Now, the female emcees have ended their feud and reportedly are working on new music together. The “Fancy” rapper took to Snapchat on Tuesday to announce that she and Banks were collaborating on a song for her upcoming album Digital Distortion. She wrote, “Public service announcement. Azealia is going to be on DD. We are collaborating. Burn your wigs now or preserve them in your freezer for release day.”

But before fans could even rejoice or complain, Azealia made it clear that they’re only in the talking stages of collaborating together. She wrote:

Here’s How Iggy Azalea Went From Potential Star To Past Tense

Amp Live 2016

Iggy Azalea‘s career could be likened to a celestial comet: nice to look at, only comes around every years and if you blink, you could miss it.

Back in  2010, when Nicki Minaj was starting her tenure as reigning queen of rap, all anyone could talk about was he Australian-bred rapper being the hottest thing to hit hip hop in a long time. The fact that she’s not American and White added to her appeal, but what lead to her demise?

Jezebel recently did an article entitled “The Making and Unmaking of Iggy Azalea” and touched on important points in her career that were pivotal to her success. The article points out that Polow Da Don was interested in Iggy ever since he met her in Atlanta in 2010 when she was just dropping mixtapes. The producer said of his first encounter with Iggy, “She just looked exotic. She looked like a star. If she was in entertainment, I wanted to work with her. If she wasn’t, I wanted to talk to her, try to take her out on a date or something.”

After bouncing around from mentor to mentor, who tried to make her go pop, Polow says, “I told her, ‘Nobody’s gonna buy you being hood.'” Due to their creative differences, Iggy and Polow parted ways — then she moved on to another Atlanta great, T.I. Before officially working with Grand Hustle, Iggy continued to grind her way to hit records, and finally landed one by the end of 2014. “Fancy” set the charts on fire and became 2015’s summer anthem.

From there, she took her talents to features and hopped on tracks with everyone from Ariana Grande to Britney Spears. She was basically the pop world’s go to rapper at the time. Iggy was so popular that she even landed a modeling contract with Wilhelmina. Then, according to Jezebel, “Iggy became a punchline and went from being hailed as a white rap savior to, three years later, being a digital-era Vanilla Ice.”

Her social media beefs with everyone from Azelia Banks to Q-Tip, plus her tumultuous relationship with Nick Young, started to overshadow the music. In a June interview with The Guardian, singer Halsey, who is also White, summarized Iggy’s career in a nutshell, saying “She had a complete disregard for Black culture. F***ing moron. I watched her career dissolve and it fascinated me.” Halsey isn’t the only one who noticed her disregard for the culture, hip hop as a whole was demanding for her to stop mocking the art of hip hop.

Last year and 2017 were ice-cold years for Iggy professionally, but her personal life has overshadowed her music — hence the reason she posted more about her five-minute long relationship with French Montana  than she did her sophomore album.

Bottom line, after seven years in the game, we still haven’t gotten to the heart of who Iggy Azalea is besides a rapper from Australia. Maybe 2018 will see the rebirth of Iggy Iggs on the music charts?

The Latest Dating App Is An Old Favorite With A New Purpose (According To White People)

Dating apps were all the rage in 2016 , but nowadays, it’s pointless to even download Tinder or Grindr when you have good ol’ Instagram.

Just like most things in society, White people are just now getting hip to the fact that IG is not just for uploading cute pics and cliché captions — sliding in someone’s DM’s is the quickest way to hook up with the person you’ve been daydreaming about. An article on Mashable proclaimed, “There’s another app that’s rapidly becoming a hotspot for digital flirting, whether you want it to be or not: Instagram.” But didn’t we already know the power of the ‘gram?

 

 

The article continued, “Rather than magically inboxing me out-of-the-blue, these DMs often appear after I’ve posted a photo on Instagram, or updated my story. If I’m travelling overseas, the Insta-flirter will DM me something related to the #humblebrag I just posted on my story.” That sounds pretty normal to us.

Let’s not forget that there’s a whole song about it “Going Down In The DM’s” and that famous people like Iggy Azalea and Nick Young started their nearly 3 year long relationship after Nick slid in the rapper’s DM’s.

 

Long story short, meeting a potential mate on Instagram is nothing new. If anything, it’s quicker to slide in someone’s DM’s, say how you feel and get feedback on whether they read your message or not than it is to aimlessly swipe right and question why someone hasn’t inboxed you on Tinder.

Either way, good luck dating in this generation.
