Azalea was recently asked about her show of support while promoting her third studio album The End of an Era in an interview with .
The Fancy hitmaker shared: "It's not about her dad. It's about Britney. I don't feel an allegiance to Britney Spears' father.
"I grew up watching her and I idolized her and I still do, and she's a really kind, lovely person.
"Beyond the fact that we collaborated together, she put her faith in me to produce that music video for her and develop the cover art and all these other things."
Iggy then said Britney was "the only artist that ever really gave me the opportunity."
The songstress claimed that many artists say they "'love your stuff so much', but none of them ever tried to hire me and let me have reign on that kind of thing. She did, and she's a superstar."
NEW MILESTONE
Britney shared the posts shortly after
The paperwork states that the singer "is entitled to have this Court now seriously consider whether this conservatorship is no longer required."
Additionally, the filing claims 's circumstances have changed "to such an extent that grounds for establishment of a conservatorship may no longer exist."
"As Mr. Spears has said again and again, all he wants is what is best for his daughter," the document says.
"If Ms. Spears wants to terminate the conservatorship and believes that she can handle her own life, Mr Spears believes that she should get that chance."
Judge Brenda Penny, who oversees the case, will need to approve the move.
A petition from Britney Spears' attorney to remove him was to be heard at the next hearing in the case on Sept. 29.
Britney’s attorney, Mathew Rosengart, told The Sun, regarding Jamie's petition: "It appears that Mr. Spears believes he can try to avoid accountability and justice, including sitting for a sworn deposition and answering other discovery under oath, but as we assess his filing - which was inappropriately sent to the media before it was served on counsel - we will also continue to explore all options.”
In a second statement, the attorney said: "This filing represents a massive legal victory for Britney Spears, as well as vindication.
"Having exposed his misconduct and improper plan to hold his daughter hostage by trying to extract a multi-million dollar settlement, Mr. Spears has now effectively surrendered. There is no settlement."
The attorney then shared his plans to continue his “investigation into financial mismanagement and other issues."
JAMIES DEMANDS $2MILLION
Jamie's filing came one week after in exchange for stepping down as conservator.
Explosive court docs from the pop star’s attorney labeled the Spears patriarch as “shameful” for allegedly attempting to get more money from his daughter in addition to the “millions” he has already received.
In court documents obtained by The Sun, Britney’s attorney wrote a scathing message for Jamie and his counsel.
“Although Mr. Spears has for more than a decade evidently engaged in abusive and bullying conduct while also elevating his own personal and financial interests above those of his daughter," the petition began.
He continued: “Regardless of the past, Mr. Spears and his counsel are now on notice: the status quo is no longer tolerable, and Britney Spears will not be extorted.
“Mr. Spears’s blatant attempt to barter suspension and removal in exchange for approximately $2 million in payments, on top of the millions already reaped from Ms. Spears’s estate by Mr. Spears and his associates, is a non-starter.”
Mathew also alleged Jamie is attempting to "ensure payments to certain third parties while he perceives he still has leverage to extract concessions, but the reasons for his audacious desire to divert conservatorship assets to himself and others are, at this time, beside the point."
JAMIE STEPS DOWN
Back in August, Jamie revealed his as Britney's conservator in court documents.
Court papers filed by 's lawyer state: "There are, in fact, no actual grounds for suspending or removing Mr. Spears as the Conservator of the Estate.
"And it is highly debatable whether a change in conservator at this time would be in Ms. Spears' best interests."
The docs - first obtained by - continue: "Nevertheless, even as Mr. Spears is the unremitting target of unjustified attacks, he does not believe that a public battle with his daughter over his continuing service as her conservator would be in her best interests.
"So, even though he must contest this unjustified Petition for his removal, Mr. Spears intends to work with the Court and his daughter's new attorney to prepare for an orderly transition to a new conservator."
'SHAMEFUL'
In response to Jamie's petition to step down on certain conditions of his own, Matthew slammed the conservator as "shameful" and claimed he "spends the overwhelming majority of his brief engaging in inappropriate attacks and finger-pointing."
“In trying to defend himself, he also looks back 13 years, improperly discussing his daughter’s 'mental health issues' while outrageously suggesting he should be 'thanked,'" the legal expert furiously said.
