Except it really is. She's trying to say that people who are genuinely surprised that she's Australian are ignorant or narrow minded and I don't see what's inaccurate about saying that.

I learned she was Australian before it wasn't a big deal to when I found out and I'm not sure how one assuming that "she was a white girl raised in the ghetto" contradicts that. What? There are no ghettos in Australia? Nobody listening to rap music there? That goes back to narrow-minded, doesn't it?

The Bjork comparison is completely random. People think she's part Mongoloid because of her small eyelids and the makeup styling she uses. She looks a Saami person.

She's touring in AUS in a bit. So...

First you come here and say how immature we are or whatever, then post this? didn't you have Iggy in your sig the other day? or are you not liking her because its not cool? didn't you also buy WORK and post in the WORK thread ? bye

Exactly, anything could happen. It's stupid and small-minded to think otherwise these days. Iggy is not calling "stupid" anyone that doesn't automatically think she's Australian

And this is the first time she's said something like this. She's not complaining, she's giving her opinion just like you did.

Adele does not have a thick British accent while singing Iggy has a thick Australian accent in her interviews too.

What's that supposed to mean? She's special enough for you to dedicate that essay to her.

People also assume Nicki is pure black when she's mixed with lots of other things too.

Except it really isn't.

Surprised or not, she does not look like anything besides your average white girl raised in the hood. I have classmates who have the same image as her - she's nothing special, so saying your post, which implicates that it's so obvious that she's Australian is beyond incorrect.

You're acting as if when someone is surprised, they run and scream in disbelief - people could just go like "Oh, really?" < and that could be a surprise. It wasn't a big deal to me either when I found out, because it IS a possibility, but if I was surprised, it would make me ignorant/stupid? .


You clearly do not get that point of my post - when I say "a white girl raised in the hood" that OBVIOUSLY implies in America, not Australia .

I, and many others that I've seen, thought that she was of some Asian descent. Random or not, you proved my point - Bjork is Icelandic, and from what I read, that's basically European, so thanks for proving my point

.

People here are just using the ignorant "so she's calling stupid anyone that doesn't know she's Australian" type of comment as an excuse as if there's an actual reason to hate.

First of all, you are not Iggy's representative - do not speak for her when you do not know her real intentions. And as I said before, why should I think that Iggy is something else when she looks like nothing but the average white girl I see on a daily basis?

She can say whatever she wants - I never said that she can't say anything like this, but it does make her look not only ignorant, but immature as well. She needs to watch the way she says things.

And yes, Adele does and I am not a fan of Iggy. I said in a previous post that I just casually see pictures of her - leaving out me listening to her music was on purpose, because, I don't .

Sis, you know what I mean - don't play games. Don't start with those weak, snarky comments when I'm trying to have a civil debate with you . I'm trying to avoid using insults/sketchy comments, but we can get at war if that's what you please.

Another thing to add to my point - for the most part, Nicki appears black. For the most part, Iggy appears to be nothing else but a white girl - so why should we assume she's something else?

The excuse of "anyone could be anything nowadays" isn't valid .

people in this thread are proving her right... just because she's white and from australia she cant sound like that? some of you really need to travel more

wow theres so much ignorance in this its laughable

All black people are mixed with a lot of things. She's not any less black just because she has Indian or whatever in her. She is black.
