In Solidarity with Iggy Azalea
Searches for pop star Iggy Azalea have spiked on xHamster in the past 24 hours, due to the leak of nude photos from a GQ photoshoot. While the photos have not yet appeared on xHamster, the site has said that it will vigilantly patrol user uploads to make sure that the photos do not appear on xHamster.
“While there’s nothing shameful about nudity, non-consensual photography or video is a violation of Iggy’s rights,” says Alex Hawkins, Vice President of xHamster. “As we have done in the past in similar cases, we will increase our patrol of Iggy and relevant keywords, and are asking our community to alert us should they spot the photos.”
xHamster has also reached out to Iggy Azalea’s management team to find ways to collaborate on Iggy’s defense, including blocking her as a search term.
