Iggy Azalea is enjoying the day.
During Sunday’s NFL game between the Houston Texans and the Las Vegas Raiders, the Australian rapper entertained the crowd. Iggy took the stage during halftime while sporting a skintight Raiders costume to perform favorites like “Fancy” and “Black Widow.”

However, not everyone enjoyed her performance. Iggy received some criticism from Tashan Reed, a staff writer for The Athletic who covers the Raiders.
Iggy Azalea performing at halftime and Allegiant Stadium trying to prepare barbecue will make me sad, he tweeted.
The combination of Allegiant Stadium trying to make BBQ and Iggy Azalea performing at halftime is gonna make me depressed

His post caught Iggy’s attention, and she sent back the ultimate clap by telling Tashan that she was paid handsomely for her performance.
She wrote, “If you think you’re depressed now, I’ll save you the tears you’d shed knowing what my paycheck was to come and jiggle a little ass.”

Tashan released a video of himself going to the gym while Iggy’s song “Fancy” was playing after Iggy supporters defended her. He wrote on Twitter, “The @IGGYAZALEA stans took over my timeline & gym’s music that’s crazy.”
By tweeting a screenshot of himself dancing to Iggy’s ex-boyfriend Playboi Carti’s song “Magnolia,” he also appeared to be disparaging her once more. He captioned it, “Song of the day.”
