Nick Young jokingly called his fiancé, Iggy Azalea, a “Becky,” after she went on a rant about how she thought being called a Becky was a racial slur. If you don’t know, this is part of the fall-out from Beyoncé’s “Lemonade.”
I love my Becky but she be tripping lol

So, Iggy got back at Nick by revealing that if it weren’t for her, he would’ve had “BORN REBLE” tattooed on his back, with ‘rebel’ misspelled R-E-B-L-E.

She said, “Nick can’t spell…I came in halfway through his tattoo, and noticed ‘BORN REBLE’ looked different than the way I remember it…he really is lucky I mentioned it to him, I was gonna be petty and not say.”
To prove it, she posted a photo, where Nick has the words stenciled on his back. Apparently, it’s either half-done, or is just drawn on his back before actually being tattooed. In any event, she caught it in time.
Nick Tweeted back, “Noooo!!!! Okay you won…It wasn’t my fault, my Twitter been hacked. I would never call you the Becky word. LOL.” We assume he’s joking about being hacked.
Also, this whole thing could be a joke. It’s really hard to believe ANY tattoo artist is unfamiliar with the word ‘REBEL.’
