Iggy Azalea Strikes Back At Blogs/Trolls Ridiculing Her Make-Up Free Pics Via Twitter
Iggy Azalea was snapped walking Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C. over the weekend wearing no make-up. She looked like anyone else after a six hour, early morning flight — tired and over it — but before and after composites soon became a meme. Because there aren’t more important things going on in the world than a woman forgoing eyeliner.
The Australian femcee struck back today (May 6) with a series of stinging tweets. “Clearly I don’t mind paps getting photographs of me in that state,” she began before taking aim at the blogs and trolls that ridiculed her. “I think it’s wrong of the world to make woman feel shot [sic] enough about themselves that they need a full beat of makeup to catch an airplane.” Then, the “Fancy” hitmaker really went to town. See all her tweets after the jump.
Clearly I don't mind paps getting photographs of me in that state or I wouldn't walk around airports like that….

It's basically promoting women to ridicule eachother over an unattainable standard if beauty that media creates for us…

Is love to see anyone look anything less than haggard in makeupless pictures after a 6+ hour flight. It's normal! Fuck off! Lol!

Ps. I wouldn't mind if I looked like a straight gremlin without makeup because I still slay you all with a drag beat. Baaaaiiiiii. *twirls*
