Iggy Azalea has addressed the unfortunately common social media practice of pulling numbers “outta thin air.”
In a tweet shared late into Monday evening, Azalea addressed the social media-shard claim that her newly launched OnlyFans page had generated $307,000 in its first 24 hours of availability. According to Azalea, this figure is an example of people simply “saying shit to say shit” and isn’t accurate.
“Lol, Y’all just be saying shit to say shit at this point cause that number was pulled outta thin air,” Iggy said, as seen below.
The claim in question stemmed from the Say Cheese Twitter account. It was also shared on Instagram.
As Complex reported last week, Azalea’s 25-bucks-a-month OnlyFans is part of her larger “mixed media project” Hotter Than Hell. As Iggy explained in a statement shared alongside the launch, she “didn’t expect” to collaborate with the platform on what she’s billing as her “biggest project” yet.
“Once I looked beyond the surface level chatter about what it means to have an OnlyFans, I realized it was the perfect platform to launch a multimedia concept on,” she said at the time.
The Hotter Than Hell experience will feature collaborations with visual artists, merchandise, photos, videos, and a new studio album.
OnlyFans has proven both financially lucrative and creatively liberating for a number of other public figures, including Cardi B (although hers appears to have since been shut down) and Corinna Kopf.
