It’s been a few wild days for Iggy Azalea. The rapper, who’s engaged to NBA player Nick Young, is now in the middle of a scandal, thanks to Young admitting to cheating on her while on camera. The video was released and then, as expected, went viral, exposing their cracked relationship.
Azalea, who has been nonchalant about the whole thing, opened up in a series of tweets about the status of her relationship with Nick Young, now that she was made aware of his alleged cheating. In response to a Twitter user asking what her status was, Azalea replied, “Nothing really. I’m chilling for now.”
While that tweet could be interpreted to mean a number of things, another one directed at a different Twitter user made clear of Iggy’s stance on the cheating allegations.

Then, Iggy Azalea replied back to another fan who had this to ask the rapper, ” okay but….I mean…I guess I’m just….if a dude cheated and we was already in the s**t deep we could work it out…or nah?”
Azalea tweeted back that everything isn’t black and white .
Prior to her tweets about the cheating video, Iggy noted that D’Angelo Russell’s name was trending when the news broke of Nick Young’s infidelity. Lakers baller D’Angelo Russell was the “filmmaker” and took the video of his teammate, Young, admitting to his cheating on camera. Azalea surprisingly commended Russell for the “film.” So far it’s not known who released the video.
hmmm i see D Angelo Russell is trending… I actually liked his film. Thanks bro.

Coach Byron Scott hasn’t addressed the tape either.
“I haven’t talked to him, won’t talk to him. That’s an internal matter that our guys will deal with. The only thing that I’m disappointed about is that it got out. We’re a family, and we try to keep everything in house.”

During a press conference for the Lakers , Young said of the video, “I don’t want to get into my personal life right now. I think it’s best me and D’Angelo handle the situation we have in a private matter, outside of the media. I think it’s something we do need to sit down and talk about and that’s about it. What happened is what happened. We’ve got to work on it.”
Russell said, “I feel as sick as possible… I wish I could make things better right away, but I can’t.”
Prior to the cheating allegations, Nick Young and Iggy Azalea were blasting rumors that said both were getting cold feet after they pushed their wedding back.
A source close to the teammates told ESPN that the two are trying to deal with it. “Right now, they’re handling it by isolating him.”
What do you think of the viral video? Do you think Iggy and Nick will make it down the aisle?
