Hacker group Anonymous is trying to leverage an alleged sex tape against a female rapper
Hacker group Anonymous is threatening
to release stills from a purported sex tape involving rapper Iggy
Azalea unless she apologizes for a Twitter battle with fellow rapper
Azealia Banks.
Threatening messages posted on a Twitter account associated with the
hacker group set a 48-hour deadline for the “Fancy” singer to apologize
for “misappropriating black culture, insulting peaceful protesters, and
making light of Eric Garner’s death,” E! Online reports. The group also
tells Azalea to apologize to Banks, with whom she has been sparring over
the appropriate response to the killings of two black men by police
officers.
“There’s an X rated tape of you, we bet you’d certainly don’t want
public, are we right? @IGGYAZALEA….and this is nothing,” read one of the
tweets. “Comply or else.”
The Twitter account, @TheAnonMessage, has since been suspended.
Banks and Azalea’s initial feud was over Banks’ outrage at what she
saw as Azalea’s failure to react publicly to the cop killings of Michael
Brown and Eric Garner. It later evolved into a confrontation about rap
and race.
Anonymous said it would not release the actual alleged video, because
the group has “values,” but will make public stills of Azalea’s face
that prove it has a tape. Azalea has said no such video exists.
