Every celebrity has a breaking point when it comes to getting stalked by paparazzi, and it looks like Iggy Azalea found hers this weekend. After being followed to a grocery store in LA, Iggy and a friend got into a heated argument with a paparazzo, who was allegedly taking pictures of the rapper while she was trying to do some peaceful late night shopping.
The footage starts as Azalea and her friend are leaving the store, at which point the photographer claims he was "assaulted" by way of being spit on by the rapper's friend. When the pap hyperbolically suggests that he may have contracted Ebola from the saliva, Iggy replies, "I hope you have Ebola, I hope you die. You're a fucking cunt."
Iggy then roasts the guy for going overboard in his attempts to get a story. "You're invading my life!" she exclaimed furiously. "You're in the store when I'm trying to buy eggs. Being a musician doesn't give you the right to sneak into a supermarket and take photographs of somebody buying eggs". The pap meanwhile insists that this type of media attention comes with fame.
Watch the shouting match below.
