The rise of Iggy Azalea to stardom is unstoppable. News of her rap music, music videos, controversies in personal life being dug (divorce from common law marriage), and current online battle with Snoop Dogg sustain people's gaze on her as the new 'it' of Hollywood. Now, she just broke news of her being in a movie! Iggy Azalea in the Fast & Furious 7 installment, not on cameo role but with lines to deliver as one of Vin Diesel character's friends.
The Mirror article quoted Iggy Azalea's disclosure to Hollywood, saying, "I thought that I was just going to have to wave the flag and then I came [to set] and I got a car and I got some lines and then [my character is] friends with Vin. ..I'm kind of the head of this monster truck crew of people and I'm like the girl in charge and I have this big truck."
Iggy Azalea's inclusion in Fast and Furious 7 will add more glitter and hook on the controversial film. The action movie, which stars Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodrigues, was also the last movie that Paul Walker was filming before his death last year due to car crash. Accordingly, the movie was already 50% complete and was slated for a July 2014 release when the accident happened. The production was able to complete the film with the help of Paul Walker's brothers who made a stand in for the late actor.
Vin Diesel, said of Paul Walker's part in the Fast and Furious 7, "I must also say, that it was emotional and bittersweet... we all went above and beyond to make Pablo proud, but man, I wish he could see what we have created and just how far we have come."
Surely, there is a reason for the mishap and it was sad. But hey, it's Iggy Azalea that the rap crowd could look forward to when it finally opens in April 2015.
