Iggy Azalea appears with bandaged fingers after removing 'Live Love A$AP' tattoo

Australian rapper Iggy Azalea was recently seen in public with her left hand's fingers swathed in bandages, suggesting that she has removed the tattoo that was dedicated to her ex-boyfriend, A$AP Rocky.

On Thursday, the 23-year-old rapper was seen stepping out of Epione, a cosmetic center located in Beverly Hills, with her tattooed fingers wrapped in bandages, E!Online reported. She was seen in baby blue t-shirt, pants with star prints and matching white mules.

Azalea previously had the words “Live” and “Love” on two of her fingers, with “A$AP” on the third. After her break up with A$AP Rockyin 2012, she had got a cross tattoo on her fingers to cover up the tribute to A$AP Rocky, Celeb Buzz reported.

Last December, Azalea was spotted at a tattoo removal center, Dr. Tattoff in Studio City, California. It was reportedly her first attempt at having the ink removed to erase the permanent memories of her ex-rapper lover. Afterwards, she told Billboard that she was “getting [her] A$AP Rocky tattoo removed.”

“Everything gets so scrutinized now. We have so many outlets that it’s hard sometimes to be normal. Right now, I’m getting my A$AP Rocky tattoo removed and I know there’s paparazzi outside taking pictures of me having a conversation with you and I would prefer to do that in private. But someone’s going to sell these pictures to a blog so we can talk about it on Twitter,” she said.

The controversial singer is now engaged to Los Angeles Lakers player Nick Young . The two have been busy planning their upcoming nuptials and revealed that it’s going to be a Los Angeles wedding.

Young and Azalea started dating in October 2013, and earlier this year, the basketball player proposed to the rapper. The Los Angeles Lakers player said that he was surprised by Australian rapper’s true character, given the kind of music she performs.

Young said in a previous interview: “From her rapping, I was very surprised that she could do all that. She’s really a cool, down to earth person.”
