Singer-model Iggy Azalea has revealed she learnt twerking by watching dancers at strip clubs in Atlanta.
The 23-year-old perfected her dance moves at house parties before she found fame, and has revealed the performers in the strip clubs in the American city were an inspiration to her, reports contactmusic.com.
