In addition to Iggy Azalea, other inmates are vouching for Tory, saying he feels remorseful.

Iggy Azalea and Tory Lanez were reportedly hanging out with one another prior to the Megan Thee Stallion trial. Overall, some felt like this was a bit strange. After all, some thought it would be odd for Iggy to support Tory so publically amid such a huge scandal. Either way, it seemed as though their friendship had drifted apart as he began going to court. Subsequently, he was convicted of the Megan Thee Stallion shooting which has led to months of anticipation for his sentencing. The sentencing has been delayed on numerous occasions, however, today, it is finally taking place.

According to Meghann Cuniff, the courtroom is packed today, and many are making statements prior to the judge's decision. As Cuniff reports, Judge Harriford received a number of letters. These letters were in support of Tory Lanez, who is facing 13 years in prison. Overall, more than 70 letters were submitted, and one of them came from none other than Iggy Azalea. It has not been stated what the letter says, although we do know that she submitted one.

Moreover, it was revealed that some prisoners have said that Tory Lanez is showing remorse in prison. He also "talked in detail about the event and what he could have done to prevent it." These are all very interesting revelations that could have a huge implication on his sentence. However, it is clear that Twitter is preoccupied with Iggy Azalea and her letter. "Iggy Azalea is a disgusting person. F*ck her & those other people who rallied behind this nasty man. This is so disgusting," one person wrote. "They can deport Iggy Azalea’s nasty ass too!" said another.

Twitter Sounds Off

With the sentencing to come down within a couple of hours, it will be interesting to see how this story develops. If one thing is for certain, it's that this could very well be a massive misstep for Iggy and her career. Let us know what you think of all this, in the comments section below.
