“People think I think I’m ‘The Sh*t’ when I’m actually really hard on myself”

Iggy Azalea spills all in a fun, yet telling new interview with Vogue.

Departing from the usual Q&A format, the magazine tapped the ‘Fancy’ femcee for their latest 73 Questions feature.

Serena Williams strikes a pose for the April 2015 edition of US Vogue, shot by the photographer Annie Leibovitz sporting a dress designed by Rag & Bone.

The athlete rocks the publication sans any digital wizardry, baring all without the benefit of editing in a spread which sees her address tennis’ competitive  occasionally sinister nature.

She reveals:

It’s hard and lonely at the top. That’s why it’s so fun to have Caroline Wozniacki, and my sister, too. You’re a target when you’re number one. Everyone wants to beat you. Everyone talks behind your back, and you get a lot more criticism. God forbid I lose.
