Iggy Azalea is back in the sports news world.

The Aussie singer was out and about yesterday as she got to perform for fans in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium, where the Las Vegas Raiders were battling the Houston Texans. As far as the football being played was concerned, the Las Vegas Raiders had an overall fantastic game that had them securing the win over the Texans 38-20. As far as Iggy’s performance goes, she got a pretty good reception from the crowd at Allegiant stadium. Iggy Azalea performed a few songs while having backup dancers by her side.

She also danced a bit on her own, which is pretty standard for a halftime performance of this magnitude.

Watch Iggy’s Las Vegas Raiders performance below:

Not everyone was a fan of this performance, including Las Vegas Raiders beat reporter Tashan Reed who tweeted “The combination of Allegiant Stadium trying to make BBQ and Iggy Azalea performing at halftime is gonna make me depressed.” Iggy caught wind of the tweet and immediately responded to the Raiders beat reporter. She flexed her payday by saying “If you think you’re depressed now I’ll spare you the tears you’d cry knowing what my paycheck was to come and jiggle a lil ass.”

“If you think you’re depressed now I’ll spare you the tears you’d cry knowing what my paycheck was to come and jiggle a lil ass” said Iggy in her tweet. 

Following that exchange the two appeared to play nice.

Regardless of what you may think of Iggy, you can’t deny that she’s a name in the industry,  and clearly she was paid as such.

Whether or not the Raiders invite her back still remains to be seen. Iggy Azalea was last spotted dating NBA player Malik Monk.
