Iggy Azalea's quotes

  • I hated school so bad. I only liked art class during high school. I was always smart.
  • I love purple because my name is Amethyst.
  • I naturally want to be provocative.
  • Music is art to me, and you don't censor art. You don't go into a museum and censor things.
  • I like 'Ab Fab;' I love the crazy stuff they wear. That's my favourite! I love 'Ab Fab.'
  • I think most music provides the same messages - whether it be 'I'm unhappy' or 'I love a girl.' I just liked the package of rap music.
  • For me, visuals are as important as the music. I just love escapism and giving people something to escape to. To me, that's what art is.
  • Luxury lives in the finer details. It's a cloth napkin at a dinner table. It's a mint on your pillow before bed.
  • I think that music is still art, even if it's commercialised.
  • I think music talks to you on an emotional level, regardless of where you're from. I guess I related to the tempo of rap, the aggressiveness.
  • Being talked about like a package - I feel like that all the time.
  • As far as people whose style interests me, I'd say Grace Kelly, Gwen, Spice Girls, Victoria Beckham, and that nanny called Fran.
  • My real name is Amethyst. It sounds like a stage name. My mom is kind of crazy.
  • I was a kid watching music videos, which were so cool and made me want to learn how to dance. I wish I could've gone to dance classes and learn, like, hip-hop dancing.
  • We don't really watch basketball in Australia.
  • There's an obligation to not lead people down the wrong path, but I hardly think me wearing short shorts on stage is creating monsters.
  • Not every artist is a role model.
  • I'd known since about eleven that I wanted to live in America.
  • 'Iggy' was my dog - he was named after Iggy Pop - and 'Azalea' is the street where I grew up; together, they have the right amount of syllables to make the perfect name.
  • I think you can say anybody uses anything as a gimmick. Is Adele's not having gimmicks her gimmick? It's hard to say, isn't it? Really, I think that everybody has something that people like or that's great about them.
  • I think stupid people are surprised that I'm Australian. It's a small-minded; we live in a global community, but I suppose some people still are small-minded.
  • People think I'm more wild than I am... I like going to theme parks, play sports or just hanging out with my friends.
  • My management team are all women. Most of the people at labels I liaise with are all women. It's pretty much all women all the time.
  • I'm irrational about all things creative, and I'm always late!
  • I started rapping since, like, 14. But I've been obsessed with rap from when I was 11. I heard 'Baby Don't Cry,' I'll never forget.
  • I love musk oil. There's something about musk that makes it memorable without being overpowering.
  • A lot of people heard 'Murda Business' and thought it was about killing people, trying to be tough and hardcore. If you actually listen to the lyrics, it's kind of silly and playful.
  • As a child, I remember my dad would sometimes drive me into town with him to play pinball machines together. It's a bittersweet memory but also a favorite.
  • There are many females in my life I couldn't function on a daily basis without who I've purposely put there that work with me.
  • T.I.'s my mentor; he's a really close friend of mine. I call him my brother like we talk on the phone all the time. He's helped me with my career.
  • I think some people think I'm, like, anti-label, and I'm not. I just wanted to sign a deal when the time was right. I'm anti being shot out of a rocket when you're not ready and the songs and image aren't there.
  • I really like 'Roar' and 'Dark Horse.' 'Dark Horse' I really like, and I feel I would sing that in the bathroom; I would buy that album, and I think Katy Perry's amazing!
  • I feel like 'Work' was a really good song for people to get to know me, as it's obviously biographical. With 'Bounce,' I wanted to make sure people know there's a fun side to me as well as the somber and serious one.
  • I've never heard a man in a suit tell me what to wear; that's not their forte. You hire your stylist; whatever someone's image is as an artist is what they've chosen to portray.
  • I've been a little bit Las Vegas and casino-obsessed. So, I love some trashy glamour... and I think nothing's trashier or more glamorous than a bit of a sheer number!
