Iggy Azalea shuts down a body shamer who said she’s ‘gaining weight’

Iggy Azalea is known to speak her mind.

And the Australian rapper shut down a body shamer in the comments section of her Instagram post on Wednesday. 

After sharing a series of sultry selfies, the 29-year-old took offence to a follower who said she was ‘gaining weight’ but ‘still fab’.  

Hollywood Unlocked shared a screenshot of the exchange, where Iggy replied directly: ‘Why do I have to be gaining weight because I want to post a few selfies?

‘The obsession with my body you guys have is unhealthy. I posted a picture of my body just last week. I HAVE A F***ING SIX PACK. 

‘Please get a life. Every image I post does not need to be of my body,’ the Mo Bounce star continued. 

The saga began on Wednesday when Iggy uploaded a series of sultry photos of herself posing in a tan long-sleeved crop top and black leggings.

Her flat stomach was concealed from view, only giving fans a good look at her petite upper body and glamorous hair and makeup.

The Sydney-born artist, real name Amethyst Amelia Kelly, captioned the post: ‘Shed a light on me. Hold me up to the sun, until I catch fire.’

Iggy’s hourglass figure often makes headlines, particularly her shapely derrière.

She has long been accused of having had butt implant surgery, strenuously denying the claims on Brisbane’s Hit105 radio back in 2017.

‘They aren’t my real boobs, but it is my real bum,’ she said. ‘I do have a small waist, I have to work on it – I am never allowed to eat what I want.’   

While denying she has gone under the knife for butt implants on multiple occasions, Iggy has admitted to having several plastic surgeries done.  

‘Four months ago, I got bigger boobs! I’d thought about it my entire life,’ she told Vogue in 2015, adding she initially didn’t want to tell anyone but decided ‘I wasn’t into secret keeping’.

Later that year she admitted to having her nose altered, telling Seventeen magazine: ‘Denying it is lame!’

Iggy did say she did not plan to completely change herself, adding: ‘It’s important to remember you can’t change everything. You can never be perfect.’
