Iggy Azalea said she feels 'worn down' and like she 'can do nothing right' in an emotional Instagram post on Thursday.
The singer, 28, told her followers she was 'exhausted' after she faced a barrage of criticism for continuing to sing after her backup dancer collapsed on stage in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, earlier that night.
The musician was performing her song Black Widow, when the dancer collapsed to the floor and suffered a seizure.
'I'm worn down. I can do nothing right': Iggy Azalea shared a troubling message saying she's asking herself 'what's the point' after criticism following backup dancer having seizure
After being slammed by fans for not briefly halting the show to seek medical assistance, she posted a message that read, at length: 'Sometimes I really feel exhausted by the world.
'It feels like ANY thing I do becomes an opportunity for people to tell me why I'm s**t, why my music sucks, my clothes are ugly, why I don't matter or why I'm a horrible person.
'I'm worn down. The last 4 years are just me existing in a world where I can do nothing right & it's hard not to feel like "what's the point" & keep motivated.'
She concluded with a call for her fans, and haters, to be 'kinder' to her and one another.

The Pretty Girls singer also used the social media site to clear up some misconceptions that arose from the incident, as she initially kept performing and requested a medic to the stage, not realizing the severity of the situation.
'I thought she had just fallen/twisted her ankle,' the Trouble singer said.
'And it may sound harsh but; you keep singing until the music stops & ask for a medic which is what I did.'
Iggy said she and her camp 'are all just really shaken up by what happened & just thankful [the dancer] is okay.'

Azalea then pleaded for her fans to not share pictures of the stricken dancer.
She wrote: 'I know it’s easy to make memes of someone ‘passed out’ but someone having a seizure isn’t funny, it’s really scary!
'So I hope my fans do not repost some of the memes i’m seeing about my dancer.'
The Australian performer was slammed on Twitter by fans who condemned the singer for her seemingly callous reaction to the situation.
User @lanakane was quite verbose in her response to Iggy's post: 'I have never seen a performer look dead at someone who clearly needs serious medical attention and... keep going.

'She didn't even stop the song so they could make sure the medic was actually present/get that poor girl off stage. yuck, what a gross person!'
Other users, such as @shishybaby, rebuked the songstress: 'Is she a psychopath? How can you see someone having a life threatening emergency and continue RAPPING (horribly) OVER THEIR BODY smh.'
However other fans showed their support to Iggy, with one writing: 'sorry, you don't deserve what happened.
'Stay strong Iggy', another fan typed: 'You are an incredible person, a wonderful artist, do not feel despised, do not blame yourself, you know how much bigger you are and there are people who cheer for you!'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
