Iggy Azalea dresses as White Chicks character for Halloween

Written by . Published: November 03 2014

Rapper Iggy Azalea proved her sense of humour was fully intact on Friday (31Oct14) by dressing up as Shawn Wayans' drag character from his 2004 comedy White Chicks for Halloween.


Cruel critics have long compared the Fancy hitmaker's looks to those of brothers Shawn and Marlon Wayans in drag, and Snoop Dogg recently hit headlines for mocking Azalea by posting one of the Internet memes on his Instagram.com page.


In the caption for the side-by-side snap, he wrote, "so we just gonna ignore that fact that iggy look like marlon from white chicks (sic)".


The Australian star took issue with Snoop's post, which followed another featuring her with no make-up, and accused him of cyber bullying, but the rappers subsequently put the feud behind them with the help of Azalea's mentor, T.I.


The 24 year old can now see the funny side of the fall out and on Friday, she embraced the comparisons in the spirit of Halloween.


Azalea covered her face in pale powder and donned a pink shirt, denim jacket and skirt, white gloves and a bad blonde wig to play Tiffany Wilson, the rich socialite Wayans' cop character Kevin Copeland transforms into for an undercover job with his brother, Marcus, portrayed by Marlon Wayans.


She recruited a pal to dress up as Marcus and together, the pair headed to Jennifer Lopez's Halloween bash in Los Angeles, where stars including Demi Lovato partied the night away.


The spook-tacular event also featured a flashmob dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller, led my a man dressed as the King of Pop in his iconic red leather jacket.


Taking to Twitter.com on Saturday (01Nov14), Azalea wrote, "@JLo Your party was awesome last night! The dancers!"
