They tell us the I-G-G-Y is not the chick on vid doing the dirty &#8230; and they&#8217;re ready to sue over the alleged footage,&#8221; wrote TMZ.<\/p>\n<p>Azalea posted an additional denial on her Twitter account Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obviously I&#8217;ve seen the news feed today and i just want to say\u2026I dont have a sex tape,&#8221; wrote Azalea.<\/p>\n<p>Not content to simply deny her involvement in the recording, Azalea also ripped those who attempt to profit from the unauthorized distribution of others&#8217; intimate material.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Anyone who releases or attempts to make profit off someone else&#8217;s intimate moments against their will is a sex offender,&#8221; declared Azalea.  &#8220;It honestly makes me sick to see the media encourage any other attitude towards those sorts of people, we should want to protect our women.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I really hope that america will follow Europe and their laws to better protect peoples privacy and fundamental rights,&#8221; added the musician.<\/p>\n<p>Not simply relevant in the context of her alleged sex tape, Azalea&#8217;s words also resonate against the backdrop of the recent &#8220;Fappening&#8221; celebrity photo leak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27412,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1047],"tags":[1822],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Iggy Azalea Denies Sex Tape Claim;
