Lakers star Nick Young and his fiancée Iggy Azalea appear to be back on good terms after a few shaky weeks. This week with all the focus on Beyoncé on her latest visual album, Lemonade, Iggy managed to insert herself into the conversation AND share a story as to how she saved Nick Young from a tattoo tragedy.
It all started when someone called Iggy a “Becky” on Twitter. Remember all the controversy about the identity of “Becky with the good hair” on Lemonade. Iggy went on to explain how she believes being called Becky is racist – although she doesn’t think Bey is racist – and also went on to explain how the origins of “becky” is about white girls giving head. ::insert Nick’s confused question mark face here::
No i dont think Beyonce is racist nor do i think calling someone “BECKY” is the same as a racial slur. I actually like her and the project.

BUT, no i dont think its great to use stereotypical names to describe ANY race. I think we can all agree on that.

AND WE ALL KNOW “becky” started because you all think white girls just go around slobbing on everyones dick. Im good on being called that.

AND YOU WILL ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL DEAL. because unless youre planning on walking up to me and calling me out my name, it doesnt affect you!

For the record Iggy, “Becky” actually started with Sir Mix-A-Lot, proving once again you’re lacking the history and perspective of hip-hop. But that’s a conversation for another day. Plies had a song called “Becky” about that, but Sir Mix-A-Lot had Becky intro Baby Got Back.
Soon after Nick cruised into the timeline and called Iggy a “Becky”
Iggy’s reply was to expose a photo of Nick about to get a tatt with the word Rebel misspelled.
Ain’t online love grand!
