Iggy Azalea secures ‘7-figure’ royalties deal, so will probably feat on every song from now until the end of time

Dual-accented rap doer Iggy Azalea — famous for featuring on literally every song recorded in 2014, and that isn’t even a joke — has secured a new megabucks royalties deal with publisher Sony that will reportedly net the 23-year-old a seven-figure sum. WHO DAT, WHO DAT.

Iggy — who right now is croaking Americanly down the phone at Susan Boyle, asking if she can drop 16 bars over her next version of White Horses — spent seven consecutive weeks at No 1 in the US with Fancy, and was the first artist since The Beatles to occupy the No 1 and No 2 slot in the Hot 100.


The Sun reports the deal she’s just inked with ATV/Sony will make her one of the highest paid stars on their roster.
Iggy arrived in London yesterday, to perform at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire alongside Black Widow duet-er Rita Ora.

The new deal should help keep Iggy’s mind off the reported sex tape a skeevy ex-boyfriend is trying to ship around — as TMZ reports, Iggy ex Hefe Wine claims he has a video of him and the star from back when they were dating in 2008. He’s also threatened to release unapproved masters from Iggy’s early pop career.
