Iggy Azalea: My haters make me 'relevant'

Iggy Azalea's haters prove she's still "relevant".

The 'Fancy' hitmaker appeared on stage at the MTV Video Music Awards last night (30.08.15) alongside close pal Demi Lovato but her 30-second stint was met with a barrage of criticism on Twitter.

One user wrote: "Iggy Azalea still rapping? Ain't heard her on the radio in a while I thought she finally got the message that we hate her music (sic)"

Whilst another added: "Leave it to iggy azalea to ruin a good performance #VMAs (sic)"

However, the 25-year-old rapper took any criticism on the chin, as when a fan tweeted her to say: "I'm emotional Iggy the haters have been in my mentions for hours and all I've been trying to do is stop the hate. (sic)", she just replied: "who cares it shows im very relevant in their lives still. im flattered. hahaha (sic)".

She later added: "Its funny to see i was trending WW [worldwide], man. haters got SO MUCH to say. I was only on stage 30 seconds! Wait till my new s**t drops, its 4 mins long! hahahahahaha....

"its really tough to stick by someone when the "cool" thing is to hate on them. thanks to everyone who made the choice to stand by me. (sic)"
