The taxman came knocking for Ms. Iggy Azalea.
The rapper was just hit with a $391,056.55 tax lien from the IRS, TMZ first reported. Documents obtained by E! News show Azalea failed to pay income tax in 2014, the same year "Fancy" came out and she bought a $3.45 million home with fiancé Nick Young.
She took to Twitter to defend herself.
Peep the way when one thing happens media scrambles to keep adding on to the storyline, like a soap opera. #IggyNovela

@FameKillz_ they exaggerate everything. the IRS gave the option to pay them monthly or lump sum. i picked monthly, who wouldnt?

Azalea tweeted that the story is just surfacing now because of the recent Young cheating headlines.
