Iggy Azalea faces technical troubles at Jennifer Lopez gig
Rap newcomer Iggy Azalea's surprise set with Jennifer Lopez fell flat in Chicago, Illinois on Saturday (14Jun14) after her microphone failed to work.
The Jenny from the Block superstar headlined the B96 Pepsi Summer Bash and thrilled fans when she brought out the Australian performer.
However, as Azalea was about to break into her rap on Lopez's track
Acting Like That, technical difficulties shut off her mic.
The sound team at the event eventually fixed the problem, but
Azalea was furious when she left the stage.
Taking to Twitter.com, she wrote, "I was supposed to sing actin
(sic) like that with JLo at summer bash today but some idiot handed
me a microphone that wasn't even turned on."
Despite the incident, Azalea admitted she felt honored to perform
with a superstar like Lopez.
She added, "Watching this woman do her thing tonight was beyond
impressive. We had some technical difficulties when it was time for
our song but hey, I still enjoyed the opportunity to stand on stage
next to someone I've admired for a long time. jlo you're the most
down to earth diva there is, always smiling & a true class act.
wishing you so much luck for your album release!"
