This time, it's Australian rapper/hip hop star Iggy Azalea who is getting hilariously spoofed left and right. Azalea's ubiquitous summer hit "Fancy" is taking over the radio waves all over the world, so it just makes sense that sooner or later, the parodies would start making the rounds.
Editor's Note: A quick search shows that there are quite a few "Fancy" parodies on YouTube at the moment, but not all of them are as funny as they could be. We keep the bar raised pretty high here at About.com Web Humor! Here are the top three "Fancy" parodies on the web right now, starting with the video that is arguably the best song parody so far this year. Enjoy!
1. I'm So Pregnant
While Iggy Azalea sings about tasting champagne, this viral video focuses on the unpleasant side of pregnancy, from acid reflux to having strangers touch your baby bump.
The Los Angeles-based comedy group WhatsUpMoms uploaded this parody on June 4, 2014, and just after just six days online, the video has already been viewed a whopping 2,500,000 times.
This video stays true to Azalea's beats and lyrical style, but instead of sleek hip hop girls in bikinis, this video shows pregnant moms getting their groove on while in their ninth month of pregnancy. Here are some sample lyrics:
"First thing first I'm the roundest. They don't ask but the whole world feel it. Please don't feel it And I pee every 10 seconds. I cannot bend down - that would defy the laws of physics."
"I'm so pregnant, you already know. I'm in the last month. I can't even see my toes! I'm so pregnant. Can't fit in any clothes. Don't ask me the name. I don't know."More »
2. I'm Not Fancy
Pregnant moms aren't the only ones who are getting in on the "Fancy" action! YouTubers The Moms With Glasses have created their own version of the hit song, called "I'm Not Fancy."
The video features two moms (with glasses, naturally) who bump and grind along to lyrics about how uncool they have become now that they're mothers. According to their video description, their version focuses on "If Iggy was a momma and not so fancy. Motherhood never looked so funny, or messy, or gross, or wonderful."More »
3. I'm So Stingy
This lesser-known parody takes the opposite tact from Azalea's posh, swanky style, offering up the cheapskate's version of "Fancy." "I'm So Stingy" by GeekSlayer changes the lyrics to showcase the singer's... frugalness, shall we say?
Sample lyrics:
"First things first, I'm the cheapest. Drop cash and then I have to retrieve it. And I'm still in the '02 Civic. I can take you out, buy you a nice McDonald's breakfast."
"You should want a man cheap like this. Buying gifts at the dollar store, just like this."More »
