Iggy Azalea Canceled Her Tour Because She’s a ‘Psychopath’

No one ever accused Iggy Azalea of being subtle.

The "Trouble" rapper went on record with 97.1 AMP Radio to discuss her recent decision to postpone her Great Escape tour dates, leading to one frank confession:

"It is bumped back because I am a psychopath," she said on air. "It's my first arena tour and it's a big undertaking and I'm doing a lot of the creative direction, which I do for everything. It's tough when it's your first time working on an arena situation."

Azalea's label Def Jam confirmed on March 10 that the tour was pushed back due to "tour production delays," putting a stop to rumors that ticket sales were low and that Iggy and her management were not seeing eye to eye. Unfortunately, both of her tour openers, Nick Jonas and Tinashe, had to leave the bill due to spring scheduling conflicts.

Later in the radio interview, Iggy detailed the logistics behind setting up a tour, from production to sets. "To get the stage done in time [for a spring show] I would be making a lot of sacrifices and kind of cuts and changes and compromises would have to be made to get this thing done in time," she said. "So I really considered what [I wanted to do]— keep and honor the tickets and this dates for the fans but not have the show I that I envisioned or kind of promised them...or do I want to move it and have the absolute best show, the show that I envisioned. Obviously I've chosen to move it."

Well, there you have it.
