But Iggy Azalea has revealed she’s come a long way from her humble beginnings in Mullumbimby, NSW, as she shared photos of the rundown home she spent her childhood in.

‘Just found this envelope inside an old bag,’ she wrote. ‘It’s full of pictures from my childhood,’ she added.
She then shared a series of snaps of her childhood in the township with a population of 3,000.
They included her as a toddler dancing with her parents, as well as the rooms with exposed wires and no flooring.

Iggy was born in Sydney with the name Amethyst Amelia Kelly. She moved to Mullumbimby, about 20 kilometres north of Byron Bay, when she was a baby and her artist father built their home on a 12 acre plot by hand from mudbricks.
Sharing the photos, Iggy wrote: ‘I remember every speck of this house, and its so nostalgic and cool finding these’.
The Goddess singer has previously revealed how her bathroom was in an outhouse and she use to ‘run so fast’ back to the house at night because she thought a witch lived in the garden.

The blonde beauty left Australia when she was just 16-years-old and moved to the US to pursue her dream of becoming a famous rapper.
Back in the early Nineties she went by her birth name – Amethyst Amelia Kelly – and fantasised about escaping the town with a population of over just 3,000 for the bright lights of Hollywood.
Despite her humble beginnings, last month Iggy revealed she’d made an impressive profit after flipping her fancy home in the Hidden Hills area of Los Angeles.
After splashing $7.15million estate for a five-bedroom house just last year, the rapper has now sold it for an eye-watering $8million, pocketing a tidy $750,000 for the star.

Spread over 4289-square-metres of prime real estate in the glitterati-laden enclave that is Hidden Hills, the 32-year-old only owned the house for barely 365 days, buying the property in June last year.
The home, which was built in 1963, sits on a lot spanning 1.06 acres in a gated community.
While Azalea has not explained why she decided to list the property so quickly after purchasing, she spoke of being involved in a conflict with her neighbour over renovations.

According to Dirt.com, Azalea hoped to make even more money from the sale, initially listing the house for $8.5million.
The home boasts five bedrooms, five bathrooms and a total internal living space of 485-square-metres.
It also includes a grand living room with vaulted ceilings and a large fireplace, a master suite and a spacious pool and spa combo.
The home belonging to the musician is hooked up with a Sonos speaker system in the interior and exterior of the house.
According to the listing, Azalea has also acquired the permits for prospective buyers ‘to extend and remodel the front façade of the home and interior entry that includes construction of a front porch, complete hardscape remodel of driveway and motor court.’
The luxe enclave of Hidden Hills is home to several celebrities, including Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Drake and Madonna, among others.
