Iggy Azalea has admitted high school bullying led her to "self-sabotage" because she couldn't "tell the difference" between someone being "constructive" or cruel.
In a candid interview, the 29-year-old singer opened up about her school experience saying it impacted how she viewed people's opinions as an adult.
Speaking to RuPaul, she said: "There were people around me that I worked with who were like, 'We love you and we think that you self-sabotage yourself'.
"I knew that it was true and I think a lot of it was because I got bullied in high school and made fun of because I was always very ridiculous and over the top.
"So it was hard for me in my adult life to be able to tell the difference between somebody being critical and constructive, and somebody bullying."
The Australian rapper recently sparked worldwide debate after releasing a graphic image of her lifeless and blood-stained body up against a car to promote her upcoming album In My Defense.
In My Defense is the second studio album from Azalea and is set to be released on July 19.
The album's lead single, Sally Walker, was released in March followed by the second single, Started, in May.
