The physical move that is twerking has been around in numerous forms for a very long time - the actual word "twerk" and the specific terminology and use of it dates back to the early nineties in New Orleans bounce music, a sub genre of hip hop, to a performer named DJ Jubilee. It's a common dance move here under that…

"Izzy Azalea claims she's been 'twerking' for over two years"

Totally agree. Fat people are awesome because they're individual people with individual kinds of awesomeness, like being thoughtful or funny or hard-working or anything else a person can be. I hate the "fat vs. thin" mentality. Can we all just be people and stop using descriptions like "fat" or "skinny" as moral…

Sigh. Sorry she's too busy being treated for a serious mental illness to keep you amused. Them crazies is so selfish. Those sad, dangerous self-destructive antics of hers were so entertaining, too!

Aaaaaaand Iggy Azalea continues to be problematic and irritating. Cool.

That's what I found the weirdest about all of this. I confess, I had never heard of it before Miley Destroyed The Universe on the VMAs, so I went to YouTube and saw videos of people actually twerking, which, while not my cup of coffee, is pretty neat in the same "wow, the human body can do that?" way that gymnastics…

As if she invented tweaking in the first place... Big Freedia needs to slap her and say tweaking comes from Africa you stupid bitch

Laura, this video is crap. She bashes skinny women to make fat women feel good about themselves, and it doesn't do anyone any good. I don't care if this brings joy to fat women, it is insulting. I am not fat and I have big breasts, so her point is moot about skinny women being jealous of fat womens' boobs. I have been…

Ermmm, no.

Not to mention, neither one of them are actually twerking. Shaking your ass does not a twerk make.

Ok, fine Iggy, you invented twerking. I invented the idea of choreographed dancing. So, neener neener.

Eh. I'm fat and as sweet as the intention was, body shaming of ANY sort is no good ever.

Yes, the people who post private photos (pretty sure most people would define something between two people as "private") without the permission of the other person should absolutely be held accountable being a disgusting scumbag.

It's really good that this law has been created. Now the rest of the US and all the other countries need to catch up.

If you give a photo to one person to be seen specifically by ONLY that one person, and they upload it for the masses to see, then that is not voluntary.

no, cuz all brown-looking people don't look alike.

I want to be Nicole the Pole when I grow up.

Can we discuss Jezebel's unabashed love of strippers? The only Black women who get consistent ink spilled about them on this site are Kerry Washington and strippers.
