Iggy Azalea – Black Widow ft. Rita Ora
In the Director X-directed video, Iggy and Rita seek revenge on an ex-boyfriend. Iggy is a diner girl serving Rita and her rude date (played by Reservoir Dogs‘ Michael Madsen). His BLT didn’t live up to his very high BLT standards, so he explodes. This leaves Iggy to day-dream about an alternate life of kicking major ass. Watch the mini-movie below.
