The controversial pop star went online to answer rumors of heroin addiction.

Media Take Out published an article saying a close up photo of Iggy Azalea had track marks in her hands similar to those of a heroin drug abuser.

According to Mirror, the rapper laughed at the rumors and said that the scratches were from a friend's "evil cat." The outlet added that the "Pretty Girls" singer was traveling to Australia with fiancé Nick Young.

"Just landed in australia and i am dying with laughter because nicks just showed me an article that says im a heroin addict. WHAT?! LOL," Azalea posted on Twitter.

"could be injecting heroin into my hands.... OR could just be scratches from @AleHerself's evil cat that attacked me the other week," the rapper tweeted another post to explain.

Azalea poked fun at the rumor as she retweeted a message from a fan.

"@LuisUnleashed @IGGYAZALEA she's in Australia because her cartel is going international," Twitter user yvonne said.

Now that Azalea is back in her home country, an article by Daily Mail states that the "Fancy" singer rented a whole theme park for a day on Tuesday so she could privately enjoy it with Young and her mother Tanya Kelly. It was also reportedly the day that Young met Azalea's mother.

The Sydney theme park in question was Luna Park. Azalea told her fans during an event on Wednesday that she rented the park after she learned that it was closed during her whole stay in Australia.

"I'd been talking about it so much to Nick and then when I actually looked to buy tickets for my whole group, I saw every day that I'm here it's not open and I didn't want him to not go," Azalea said.

According to the report, the three, together with family and friends, enjoyed the rides in the park. The singer said that she loved the Joy Wheel so much that she did the ride for many hours.

"I love that joy wheel - the little thing that spins around and you have to stay on," she told the crowd during the Wednesday event. "I'm obsessed with it still, so I did that yesterday for five hours."

In another report by the Mirror, Azalea revealed that Demi Lovato will be one of her bridesmaids during her wedding. The report added that Lovato will also be singing at the wedding.

"Demi Lovato's going to be one of my bridesmaids. She'd better sing at my wedding!," Azalea said during a segment on the American television show "The Late Late Show" hosted by Tom Snyder.
