Iggy Azalea says she lost 15 pounds from twerking

Iggy explains that before her twerk-tastic music video shoot for “Mo Bounce,” she rehearsed the dance moves like crazy.

“It’s a lot — I went on a meal plan before the video because I knew I would have to be dancing fairly skimpily dressed,” she says. “I did a lot of rehearsals actually, and man! I lost 15 pounds in a week dancing to that song!”

She also admits that she had a twerking trainer who helped her master the technique.

“I never realized how flexible you have to be to do that stuff,” Iggy says.”My teacher was like ‘I really suggest you take yoga’ and I didn’t know you had to take yoga to be a twerker, but apparently you do.”
