Australian rap icon Iggy Azalea has abandoned the Internet, particularly social media site, Twitter. On Wednesday night, Azalea informed her over four million followers that she would be "taking some time away" after her photos during her recent vacation spread online, which sparked an online havoc.
Iggy Azalea's social media exit came after harsh comments about her emerged online. According to The Daily Mail, the 24-year-old Australian rapper left Twitter because of the "negative and draining" criticisms she received. She also told her fans that her management will be taking over her official Twitter account.
The social media backlash apparently started after some unflattering paparazzi photos of Iggy Azalea surfaced on the Internet, Billboard revealed. The said photos was taken from her recent vacation in Hawaii with boyfriend Nick Young.
Before leaving the online realm, Iggy Azalea posted 6 outspokenly expressive Twitter messages addressed to haters, critics and fans.
1. "Just got back from a great vacation, came online and saw apparently it's shocking and unheard of to be a woman and have cellulite. Lol."
She tweeted the message after Azalea was criticized for her curvy appearance when unflattering bikini pics were published, News.com.au cited. It was soon followed by the tweets below.
2. "I just want to have peace and relaxation time without a perve with long distance lense hiding out taking pictures, everyone deserves peace."
3. "I feel the hatred and pettiness i see online at all times is at making me become an angry person and I cannot be that."
4. "To become nasty because of the way I feel iam treated would be a disservice to my fans and I promise i will try to keep smiling."
5. "But I also want to let my fans know iam taking some time away from social media. I need to be happy and it is too negative and draining."
6. "The Internet is the ugliest reflection of man kind there is," her last tweet reads before Iggy Azalea signed off. But though she abandoned Twitter, The Huffington Post said she seems to be active on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Wendy Williams came to Iggy Azalea's defense amidst the social media fracas, E! News reported. On her show this week, the 50-year-old TV host slammed the rapper's haters and urged them to stop hating Azalea.
"How much hate do you guys have?!" Williams asked then added, "I want you all to leave her alone. I know who the haters are: my people. It seems like black people don't want this girl to win because she's white... You need to stop that hate and get a life, haters."
