Australian-born punk icon Brody Dalle has publicly decried Iggy Azalea and Jennifer Lopez's joint single Booty, and its controversial film clip, as "horrendous".

The track — the video for which has attracted fierce debate — comes at a time when body positivity is at the fore of much music-industry discussion, spurred on through the recent release of decidedly celebrated works such as Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass and Nicki Minaj's comparably butt-focused Anaconda.

But where those songs have been almost uniformly welcomed, Booty has caused quite the furore since its release last week, reaching a head when Dalle expressed her confusion over the clip on Twitter yesterday morning.

"I think JLo and Iggy Azalea have lost their heads up each other's big butts," she wrote.

"I'm trying to understand what the point of their horrendous video is but I can't find one."

Dalle rounded out her fiery critique with a thinly veiled shot at Chris Brown, one of Booty's several co-writers, who was famously convicted of assault against then-girlfriend Rihanna and sentenced to five years' probation back in 2009.

Dalle released her debut solo album, Diploid Love earlier this year. You can watch the clip for last month's single, Rat Race, below - just don't expect any butts.
