Iggy Azalea stopped crowdsurfing because of sexual touching

Iggy Azalea has revealed that she stopped crowdsurfing because people tried to "finger" her.

The rapper told New York City radio station Hot 97 that she would often be inappropriately touched by fans when she ventured out into the crowd.

The Australian, who stated that women often do it more than men, said:

"I had to stop [crowdsurfing]...I'm only doing like 2000-seaters, but I still have to have barriers even if it's like 200 people because people try to finger me."

Azalea added: "I will get lurk tweets for like a week before my show, like 'I'm about to go to the Iggy Azalea show and I'm going to finger her', and I'll see it and be like, please don't! That's a violation. I don't actually like that stuff.

"Like, they think I'm real slutty, like 'Oh, she got a song called 'Pussy', I know what she wants. She wants these two fingers'. Why would I want a stranger to ever finger me? Buying my album for $12 doesn't mean you get to finger me when I come to your city."

The 'New Classic' star added that she had to resort to wearing extra underwear to protect herself.
