Iggy Azalea Landed A New Maxim Cover, But She’s Not Happy About It

Iggy Azalea is a woman who is not afraid to speak her mind, and the Australian rapper has had whole heaps of gossip and haters to address this year alone. From her most recent tiff with Snoop Dogg to a supposed sex tape and even marriage rumors, the “Fancy” singer has taken on a lot of negativity in stride after her quick rise to fame.

But her latest bone to pick is with Maxim Australia and her Australia label, who apparently authorized the recycling of an old 2011 Complex magazine cover shoot. The label gave the go-ahead to release the photos, but today (October 16), Iggy took to Twitter to publicly put them on blast for not honoring her wishes:

You can see the Maxim Australia cover here—the magazine put her on the cover because they slated her as number one on their annual Hot 100 list. And while she appreciated the love, Iggy seemed to think that a cover deserved an actual, y’know, cover story and original photo shoot.

Do you agree with Iggy’s take on the situation? It seems reasonable that she be consulted on the use of her image, right? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. In the meantime, we’ll let Cher Horowitz speak on it:
