The Voice coach Guy Sebastian has slammed Aussie rapper Iggy Azalea, confessing he “never liked” her when they worked together on The X-Factor.
LISTEN to Guy Sebastian detail his beef with Iggy Azalea.
Guy, 37, lashed out at Iggy in a chat with Kyle Sandilands and Jackie Henderson on the Kyle & Jackie O Show this morning
Talking of his past experiences on TV judging panels, Guy opened up to reveal the difficult time he had with one particular judge on The X-Factor, in 2016.
“I’m pretty honest, when I don’t like them,” he started. “Like, I never liked Iggy.”
“She was awful to me. Like I had stuff on with my kids, she made us all wait for like three hours or something and then lobs up and has attitude,” he said. “Like if I’m making everyone wait – which happens ’cause you know, I’m not the best with time – at least charm it on a bit.
“Go ‘oh I’m sorry I’m so late.’ Make up something.”
“Iggy’d walk in and be like, ‘My time’s my time, whatever. Get over it.'”
Guy recently told Stellar that he “hated” his time on The X Factor, saying, “It was just childish, with all the bickering”.
“You had guest judges who weren’t invested — and the audiences aren’t stupid, they can see that.
“Iggy wouldn’t rock up. And when she did, she’d just roll her eyes. I hated it. I really struggled that year.”
Iggy responded to Guy’s radio jibes with a series of now-deleted tweets where she asked: “How can you be late for a show that was filmed on LIVE television firstly… I’d love to know guy!”
“If you dislike me so much what’s up with all the interviews with you saying you expected to dislike me but that I’m really sweet and lovely?”
“Remember when half way into the season you started having ‘beef’ with me that was entirely fabricated by the show and you told me you were sorry but you wanted to go along with ‘upstairs’ requests to create ‘drama’ so you could make sure you remained a judge for next season?”
Sounds like this feud is to be continued!
