Iggy Azalea has leaked her own Instagram DMs, and revealed that she has been offered $15,000 (£10,000) for “conversation” by verified celebrities.

The Australian rapper exposed the offer on her official TikTok, in a video which saw her dance in front of screenshots of some of the many private messages she’s received.

“I know you got money and it don’t excite you but I know ya time is valuable so I’ll pay you for ya time,” read one offer, from a verified Instagram account with 8.9m followers. “I’ll give you $15k just to speak to me and have a conversation. Over the phone or on [Instagram] live.”

“Ha ha ha as if!?!?!” Azalea wrote in a caption. “Stay outta my DMs uglies.”

Azalea had scrubbed out the usernames and images of those who had sent her private messages, but fans have already attempted to identify the possible suspects based on their individual numbers of followers – which Azalea did not digitally conceal.

Another leaked DM included a marriage proposal, with an anonymous celebrity pledging to “protect [Azalea] better” than her ex-boyfriend Playboi Carti.

Others, from additional verified accounts with millions of followers, featured crude remarks about Azalea’s body.

In March, Azalea revealed that her forthcoming third album will be titled End of an Era, and that it will serve as a monument to the end of her twenties.

“Turning 30 made me really think back on the last decade of my life & I just wanted to take all the s*** I’ve loved and make a time capsule of it,” the “Fancy” rapper wrote on Twitter.
