Iggy Azalea Announces First Aussie Headline Shows

Aussie-born, internationally-based rapper Iggy Azalea will perform her first run of local headline shows this October and November.

The dates will fall in and around her already confirmed support slot for superstar singer Beyoncé, who will be here for an extensive set of national performances. Iggy's headline shows will see the MC visit Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney - tickets go on sale Tuesday 8 October at 9am.

There's been a lot of hype surrounding the artist, who was born in Sydney, since she gained plenty of notoriety for her tracks Pu$$y and Two Times back in 2011. Her 2013 breakout songs Work and Bounce have cemented her status as one rapper to watch out for.
