Iggy Azalea: 'Animals are so much more forgiving than humans'

Rapper Iggy Azalea has opened up about human behaviour in a new Twitter post following a visit to a horse ranch.

The 'Booty' superstar watched how an inspirational woman devotes her time to rehabilitating neglected former race horses and was so moved that she told her followers how she wishes people would be that kind to each other:

"I went to this woman's ranch today, she rehabilitates race horses who have been grossly neglected and basically left to die. I love horses. Anyway I guess seeing them friendly and healthy again reminded me how forgiving animals are compared to humans. Even tho we're all animals. (sic)"

Azalea, meanwhile, just told GQ magazine that she hopes to enjoy a long and successful career: "If I have a very long career and can be gyrating in a leotard at 35, that would be great. You never know how long you'll be in people's good graces, especially in this business. I hope it's long - but I could be here for three or four years and then be out, like most artists."
