Iggy Azalea: Papa John’s Employee Allegedly Gives Out Iggy’s Phone Number, Singer Lashes Out On Twitter
Iggy Azalea and Papa John’s are in an apparent feud after the pizza giant allegedly distributed the rapper’s phone number. According to the Daily Beast, Azalea got into a public disagreement with the company on Twitter. First, she called out the account, but when the Papa John’s social media person responded with a pun, Iggy got straight up furious.
. @PapaJohns was my favorite pizza but the drivers they use give out your personal phone number to their family members.

Then, Iggy Azalea let Papa John’s have it. Clearly not satisfied with the response she got, Iggy requested that her issue be handled, and if the company didn’t do anything to rectify the problem, Iggy said that she will file a lawsuit.
@PapaJohns I don’t think data breach is funny. I expect you to contact me to explain how you are going to rectify your breach

@PapaJohns of my personal information in a satisfactory and professional way or lawsuit will be filed. — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) February 9, 2015
Of course, this got Papa John’s attention right away — and no more light-hearted jokes were made — but Iggy was faced with even more problems. Apparently she requested to see photos of some employees so that she could identify the one who delivered her pizza, as she believes that he was the one who divulged her personal information.
And the supervisors at @PapaJohns refuse to send pictures of their employess so you can identify who it is that steals your information — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) February 8, 2015
You know, to protect their privacy… Too bad they don’t value the privacy of their customers also. #DamnShame — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) February 8, 2015
Iggy Azalea found out about the Papa John’s incident through a text message. According to Us Weekly, a sibling of the delivery guy sent her a text asking if it was really her and saying that her number was given out by the guy who delivered her food.

As previously reported by the Inquisitr, all of this happened before the Grammys.
