Iggy Azalea sex-tape rumors continue despite her denial

The Iggy Azalea sex-tape situation -- the one where the video may or may not exist -- is getting complicated.

Though the “Fancy” rapper declared unequivocally Thursday that no such tape was ever made, TMZ reported later that her legal team was saying, hey, maybe there is a video, but it might show their client when she was underage.

FOR THE RECORD

6:40 p.m. Sept. 14: An earlier version of this post misspelled rapper Jefe Wine’s name as Hefe Wine.

Vivid Entertainment porn honcho Steve Hirsch said this week he’d seen some explicit footage reportedly showing Azalea and an ex-boyfriend and was willing to make her a seven-figure offer if she’d allow its release. Of course, if the 24-year-old Aussie rapper -- real name Amethyst Amelia Kelly -- were younger than 18 in such a video, any release situation would get illegal pretty fast.

These days, Iggy is dating Nick Young of the L.A. Lakers.

“I believe there would be a huge demand for her sex tape,” Hirsch said, noting that Vivid was doing its due diligence to secure legal rights. In California, all parties involved must agree before a sex tape can be commercially released.

Think Kim Kardashian and Ray J? Hirsch has reportedly said an Azalea video would do even better than that couple’s moneymaker, which was shot in 2003, went public in 2007 and is still pulling in the cash.

The guy claiming to be the other party in the alleged Iggy Azalea tape seems ready to sign on the dotted line.

Houston rapper Jefe Wine, who’s managed by the same company that handles Azalea, told TMZ he didn’t leak the tape but did have his computer stolen a few months ago. He said he didn’t even meet Azalea until after she was 18 and that she knew they were being taped.

Jefe Wine’s new tune “It Ain’t Trickin,” which features Azalea, is slated for a Sept. 19 release.
