Iggy Azalea is saying goodbye to Instagram - for now at least.
The 24-year-old rapper announced on Friday that she will be leaving her Instagram account in the care of her management team until further notice. Iggy's decision comes after months of defending herself and her music career on social media.
"Until further notice Iggy's Instagram will be run by management," the rapper's management wrote in an Instagram post, adding, "Iggy is taking a break from social media. She loves all her Azaleans!!"
The announcement comes a few days after the "Fancy" rapper posted photos of herself taken by paparazzi. In a lengthy caption, Iggy expressed her frustration with the paparazzi for invading her personal privacy.
"This is me standing in front of my home, which has a 6ft high blacked out fence around it," she wrote. "No one should be made to feel like their own home is a prison because even your garden may be grounds for a photoshoot. I really just want to urge my fans to be aware of what you are enabling when posting these pictures. It is illegal to post images of someone in their home or property with a long range camera. I'm asking in the nicest way possible to please think twice about that. You're home is supposed to be your place of peace. I just want mine to be that too same as everyone else."
In February, the rapper announced that she would be stepping away from Twitter, leaving it in the hands of her management team.
"But I also want to let my fans know I am taking some time away from social media," she tweeted on Feb. 18. "I need to be happy and it is too negative and draining."
