Iggy Azalea is sounding off on Twitter once again, but this time she’s directing her anger towards shoe designer Steve Madden. The rapper, who teamed up with the brand last year to create her own new line, is furious due to a “disgusting” photo shoot they released without her approval.


Steve Madden released the visuals for the new shoe line on the company’s Tumblr page earlier today (Jan. 29). The brightly colored images were just not to Iggy’s liking so she unleashed her anger on Twitter and blasted Steve for failing to consult with her first before the images were put out for public consumption.


Unfortunately, the ‘Beg For It’ rhymer has already deleted the tweets, but you can read them below, thanks to the Fader.


She wrote:



“Everything in a collaboration is supposed to be mutually approved. But Steve Madden did the most disgusting photo shoot ever and never…”


“Even told me about it, I’m just now seeing it as its uploaded on some random tumblr page and i am livid.”


“I worked really hard on the creative direction both the shoes and the shoot I WAS involved with and in. I really feel it’s been…”


“Tainted with these God awful images that Steve madden took appon themselves to create and share without my knowledge. Gross gross gross.”


“Ive been bamboozled with a tumblr page where everyone wears socks and takes unintentional crotch shots on pool toys. I’m in shock.”



The Steve Madden Tumblr page has since been set to private. However, Twitter user @NationIggy grabbed the images and has been sharing it around the ‘net.
