Iggy confirming that she'll be moving onto "Trouble" - a Beg for It video is no longer planned (she cites the Jingle Ball concerts; not sure I'm buying that, but w/e):

What went wrong was not shooting a video prior to the premiere of the song. The original video would have been shot in late November, but then if it went through, it would be premiering right now. Bad timing all around. The best thing is to move forward.

She's a mess. I dunno. This cake at a bad time for her, I think her image is really taking a nosedive with the latest controversy.

Ugh. I wanted a video for "Beg For It." I don't understand why they didn't shoot a video before the song premiered. What a fucking mess. "Trouble" is also a bad single choice.

I don't think this whole "controversy" is affecting her image at all. It's strictly been blown out of proportion by cyberspace aka ATRL and other gossip sites. Everyone else could generally careless considering the more important racial issues going on throughout the country at this time.
Meanwhile, the entire handling of this single has been horrendous. If they knew there was a possibility things wouldn't work out since she's touring etc. they should have never went through with the re-release/EP or whatever this was.
I don't get the hate about Trouble being the next single. It's the most logical single from the songs left.

I don't know about that. It's definitely made some headlines and has received a lot of attention in the twitter sphere.

I don't consider Twitter to be a legitimate cite to prove people really care about this. Like, think about all of the "controversies" that go on Twitter daily that the majority of the world ends up knowing nothing about.

Not necessarily CNN and BBC and the like but it's definitely been in some news articles from places you've heard of. Be careful about making a statement about that before you've googled it.

I've heard of Bossip, Lipstick Alley, That Grape Juice, but does that make those sites relevant to the GP? Nah.

Yeah, but go ask 10 people if they've heard of the story and I bet you almost none have... it may seem like a big deal on Pulse, but the general public really doesn't keep up with this kind of stuff.

I don't think this controversy will affect her long term. I'm thinking a week or two it'll be forgotten. This is not the first time she's been surrounded by negativity regarding her authenticity, her sound really being hip hop or not, or if she's worthy to be put in that category, it's just on a larger scale now because she's become so big.
Good idea with moving on from Beg For It, consider it a money saver. She can maybe have more budget for the next project.

It's a shame they couldn't get a video out. This would've been a Top 10 hit on the Hot 100.

It's a shame this didn't go top 10 on radio. This is still the hotness!

PCA performance:
She also won the Favorite Hip Hop Artist award!
Good performance again, but shouldn't they be moving on from this song and taking advantage to promote the supposed new single?!
