Iggy Azalea Opens Up About Secret Health Battles

Hey, loves, let’s talk about Iggy Azalea - the Aussie bombshell who’s never afraid to bare it all, whether it’s her chart-topping hits or her personal struggles. In a recent heart-to-heart with ABC News on August 9, the 35-year-old former rapper spilled some serious tea about the hidden health challenges she faced while running her steamy OnlyFans account. Turns out, behind those sizzling bikini snaps was a story of grit and resilience that’ll make you admire her even more.

Iggy revealed she developed a chronically non-healing wound due to a PICC line - a flexible tube inserted into a vein in the arm for long-term IV therapy, often used for delivering meds or fluids (thanks, Mayo Clinic, for the intel!). This came after nerve damage in her legs led to a severe infection, requiring intense treatment. But did she let that slow her down? Not a chance!

Turning Pain into Power on OnlyFans

Even with a PICC line in her arm, Iggy kept her hustle on point. She cleverly worked around her treatment, sharing how she’d remove the line temporarily to snap some hot bikini pics for her OnlyFans fans. Talk about making the best of a tough situation!

“I turned lemons into lemonade with that situation - I really did,” Iggy confessed with a wink during her ABC News chat.

Launching her OnlyFans in January 2023, post-music career, Iggy quickly became a top creator on the platform, charging $25 a month for exclusive content like photos, videos, poetry, and even music. Her fans couldn’t get enough, and she admits she was already banking big before even posting much. Now that’s what we call a boss move!

Money Moves and Clearing the Air

Rumors swirled that Iggy raked in a jaw-dropping $48 million from her OnlyFans stint, but she’s setting the record straight. “It’s not quite $48 million, but it’s still a life-changing amount - just a tad lower,” she clarified. Still, that cash flow allowed her to fund her entrepreneurial dreams, seeding ideas for businesses she’s passionate about.

By 2024, Iggy decided to close her OnlyFans chapter and pivot to new ventures. She’s now the cofounder of Unreal Mobile, a wireless provider, and even launched her own cryptocurrency, $MOTHER. Talk about a glow-up!

A New Era of Control for Iggy

Reflecting on her journey, Iggy shared that the past decade has been all about reclaiming control over her life and career. “I want to navigate my own ship, and it feels really good to do that,” she mused. And honestly, we’re here for it - watching her steer her way to success is pure inspiration.

From battling health issues in secret to building an empire on her terms, Iggy Azalea proves she’s more than just a ‘Fancy’ face. So, what’s next for this unstoppable queen? We’re keeping our eyes peeled - and you should too!
