While addressing the situation, Iggy, 28, explained that the nude photos leaked were outtakes from a GQ photoshoot in 2016 and were never supposed to be released publicly.
“Today I’m a ball of negative emotions. I feel blindsided, embarrassed, violated, angry, sad and a million other things," the "Fancy" singer wrote.
"Not solely because I did not consent to this — but also because of the vile way people have reacted," she added.

The star then went on to discuss the comments that mostly men were leaving her on Twitter. "Sharing their thoughts and fantasies in regards to my body has honestly disturbed me," Iggy said.
“The outright wicked things people say is overwhelming and makes me feel like throwing up,” the blonde confessed.
Later, Iggy talked about her confusion regarding why the photos still exist in the first place. "There was no reason for anyone to have kept the outtakes from the shoot. I’m surprised and angry that they were not immediately deleted after the final images were selected,” she added.
Before telling her fans that she would be temporarily deleting all of her social media accounts, Iggy did reveal that she will be taking legal action and making sure that the person who leaked her nude photos are "accountable for their actions."
