No one was quite sure what to make of it, as the crowd at the 2016 Men of the Year Awards in Sydney was left shocked by Iggy Azalea’s acceptance speech for Woman of the Year!
Prior to that, there was no question that Iggy certainly had the attention of the room as she had turned up to the event topless under a black jacket and strategically placed fashion tape. So if it was a sensation she was trying to create, that she certainly did!
It was when the Aussie rap star stepped on stage to accept the Woman of the Year award that she shocked the audience and stunned her co-presenters.
On receiving the award, Azalea said…
“I’ve won a lot of awards over the last few years but this one means the absolute most to me because I can finally say that I have an award winning vagina.”
Then of course, Azalea thanked GQ and the still shocked audience, and she politely exited the stage.
Although no one would dispute the fact, only Iggy Azalea could get away with something like that.
The humor continued though, as the tone of the room was rescued by Mad Men star Jon Hamm who took great delight in referring to Azalea’s comments during his own acceptance for International Man of the Decade!
Jokingly, Hamm said;
“This is amazing for me. I got the best vagina in the world.
“I guess all you can say to that is, ‘Yes, this vagina is phenomenal.’”
