Why Did Iggy Azalea Leave Only Fans

Iggy Azalea, from Sydney, Australia, rose to fame as a rapper with her 2014 hit “Fancy.” Known for her bold style, blending hip-hop, pop and EDM, she earned Grammy nominations and garnered a global following. Despite her early hit, Azalea struggled to find continued traction with her music career. Her live shows were often panned by critics and poorly attended. In 2021, she announced her retirement from music, frustrated with industry constraints and inspired with desire for full creative control.

In January 2023, Azalea joined OnlyFans to promote her multimedia project Hotter Than Hell, marking a pivot in her career. On OnlyFans, the blonde from Down Under offered photos, videos, music and poetry for $25 monthly, quickly becoming a top earner, reportedly peaking at $30 million that year. Azalea’s content included voice messages, some fulfilling niche fan requests.

Despite her success, Azalea faced health challenges during this period, managing nerve damage and a chronic infection requiring a PICC line (semi-permanent IV line), yet she continued creating content. By 2024, she shuttered her OnlyFans account, citing a preference for genuine fan interaction over transactional relationships, as seen in her shift to Telegram.

This 2024 transition coincided with her entrepreneurial entry into cryptocurrency, launching the $MOTHER memecoin, and into mobile phones, launching Unreal Mobile. Iggy is actually a co-founder of Unreal Mobile, dispelling the image that she is merely a spokesmodel.

There is no doubt that Iggy was able to fund her crypto and wireless ventures with her earnings from OnlyFans. In retrospect, this move can be seen as a strategic reinvention, leveraging her fame to explore new creative and financial avenues and underscoring her ongoing quest for autonomy and innovation beyond music. While Iggy is no longer on OnlyFans, there are plenty of hot blondes on OF who deserve your attention including Mia Malkova, Gabby Epstein and Renae Erica.
