Iggy Azalea Quits Social Media
Enough is Enough
 |
Iggy Azalea has had a pretty unfortunate relationship with social
media. Between regular rants about various things, leaked photographs and a
spectacular feud with Azalea Banks that dragged in dozens of other hip-hop and rnb
artists, the term ‘any publicity is good publicity’ has been tested to breaking
point.
This time around, the Australian star after being papped in
a bikini whilst vacationing in Hawaii with her boyfriend, Nick Young. Unsurprisingly
(and depressingly), the vast majority of the pictures were angled towards her
rear, sparking off a torrent of nasty comments about her figure on social
media networks.
Azalea took to Twitter to weather the storm, threatening to
turn her back on SM networks for the foreseeable future, and then doing exactly
that.
“iam taking some time away from social media. I need to be
happy and it is too negative and draining,"
Azalea said, "My management will tweet/run my accounts from today onwards with updates etc unless any message is signed -IA. Love you all. Peace out!"
This
move, of course, won’t prevent people from jumping online and saying unpleasant
things about her, or keep the paparazzi at bay, but it will keep Azalea
distanced from it all, which is unquestionably a good thing, since she’s done
little more than exacerbate things in the past when called to defend herself.
