Iggy Azalea takes aim at Snoop Dogg over offensive photo

Iggy Azalea has taken aim at rap veteran Snoop Dogg after he poked fun at her appearance with a mean post on Instagram.com.

The legendary Drop It Like It's Hot hitmaker took to his photo-sharing site on Sunday (12Oct14) and shared a meme of an albino woman with cornrows, which featured the words, "Iggy Azalea No Make Up".

The post caught the attention of the Australian star and she let Snoop know she was hurt by his sense of humour by firing off a series of message on Twitter.com.

She wrote, "@snoopdogg why would you post such a mean pic on insta (Instagram) when you send your body guards to ask me for pictures every time we are at shows together...?

"And everytime (sic) I've spoken to you, you've always been nice as hell. I'm disappointed you'd be such an a** for no reason."

Snoop has yet to respond to the posts, but he has since taken down the offending image.

Azalea's online reprimand comes days after she lashed out at a paparazzo and attempted to ram him with a shopping cart after he refused to leave her alone after trailing her all day.

She later took to her Instagram page to defend her actions, insisting, "I don't hate paps, just the really aggressive ones... I only treated him the way he treated me all day. Fair is fair playboys and girls. peace out (sic)."
