Iggy Azalea is an Australian rapper, singer, songwriter, model, and music video director. Her songs include “Pussy,” “Two Times,” “Work,” “Fancy,” “Black Widow,” and, in a featured role, “Problem.” She has created her own label, Bad Dreams, through a distribution deal with Empire. Her official YouTube channel has garnered 3.4 billion views. She is the first non-American female rapper to top the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and the second act to reach number 1 and number 2 simultaneously on the Hot 100 with their chart debut appearances.
Iggy is the daughter of Tanya and Brendan Kelly, who is a painter and comic artist. Her surname is generally Irish. She moved to the U.S. at sixteen to pursue her music career. Iggy has a son with her former partner, American rapper, singer, and songwriter Playboi Carti.
Iggy has stated, “My family came to Australia on the First Fleet. My family’s been in that country for a long time, over 100 years. If your family’s lived in Australia for a long time, everyone has a little bit of (Aboriginal blood). I know my family does because we have an eye condition that only Aboriginal people have.”
Referring to a DNA test and possibly speaking facetiously, Iggy has stated:
They also told me my ancestry is a mix of Scandinavian, Asian and awesomeadian

She looks the twin of Sammy Winward from the English Soap Opera Emmerdale.

They look NOTHING alike. That girl is way prettier than Iggy. Iggy looks like a transsexual.
Sooooo basically she’s white. I love how the new thing is your Irish not white. My black ass is black & my background is from Barbados does that mean I’m not black but bajan? YOUR BACKGROUND COUNTRY IS NOT YOUR ETHNICITY-she’s white!
her ethnicity is irish, her nationality is australian and her race is white. there is a difference, ethnicity does not equal race.
I preferred Iggy Pop
ew her skin is the same color as her hair. wtf?! this bitch is desperate in need of a tan! i’m so sick of her appropriating black culture. her fake ass accent is annoying as fk. this trick is from australian and yet she has a ghetto southern accent when she raps? wtf is up with that shit? lame ass saltine bitch!
australia*
You’re so sick of her appropriating “black culture”? What, by just rapping? If that’s what appropriating culture is nowadays then I’m sick and tired of black people appropriating white culture by playing classical music and violins. Stop stealing our culture!!!1
(For those of you who don’t realize it’s a JOKE. Apparently anything can qualify as appropriating a culture nowadays. Someone was saying it’s racist for a white person to learn Spanish because it was cultural appropriation. Spanish is from Spain, a white country!!)
And she isn’t in need of a tan. All skin colors are beautiful and there’s nothing wrong with pale skin.
Correction
Iggy Azalea is irish, english, welsh, scottish, french, african, and very very very very distant native american believe it or not
where did you hear that?
lmao she’s from australia. how in the hell is she gonna be native american??????
and she’s NOT african either. her skin is white as snow. the bitch is straight up white
Africa is a continent, so of course there is a mix of people in different countries, there are Africans that have blue eyes and blonde hair (South Africans) . Africa is a melting pot as well like America.
her great great great great great great great great grandfather was african and native american. she looks very caucasian because that is her makeup
and plus, the only native thing she’d have would be Aborigine Australian. Not native American!
Nikki stop lying. If that’s the truth then please provide reliable sources that she’s really African and Native American. Iggy has never said anything about being part African or N.A. so IDK where tf you got that bullshit from.
Can someone block this racist ‘WTF’? im sick of seeing his white-hating comments on here, talk about having a inner race complex! stop taking it out on pages on here already!
i’m not a guy you ignorant piece of shit. btw people of color cannot be racist. reverse racism is bullshit
I am native American, and I don’t agree with WTF’s comment below about reverse-racism because it does exist, but I meant I agree with her comment about iggy being Caucasian.
Reverse racism is not real!
I don’t see anything wrong with what WTF said. He/she is just pointing out the facts, how can she be Native American if she’s from Australia? and she does look 100% white. How is that being racist? or ignorant? lol and that great-great-great-grandmother crap is old and overused by far too many people nikki. I’m quite sick of every goof claiming it to justify their “false exoticness”
Thank you leslie_2 for defending me.
There are too many ignorant dumbasses on this site. SMH!!!
