Iggy Azalea deletes social media accounts and threatens legal actions over leaked nude photos

Rapper Iggy Azalea is taking some time away from social media after a series of topless photos of her, leaked online without her permission.

The 28-year-old deactivated her Twitter and Instagram accounts on Monday after racy photos from a 2016 GQ Australia Woman of the Year shoot began trending online.

The leaked photos, which were taken by photographer Nino Muñoz, show Iggy posing with her breasts exposed in nothing but a pair of white pajama shorts.

Deleting her accounts, Iggy Azalea then released a statement saying she feels "blindsided, embarrassed, violated, angry, sad, and a million other things..."

In addition to sharing her anger and embarrassment over the public's viewing of the photos she also declared her intention to press charges against the person(s) who made them available.
