WARNING: The following contains spoilers from season 8 ofGame of Thrones.
Iggy Azaleais defending herself after fans called her out for sharing a majorGame of Thronesspoiler from the third episode of the final season.
On Sunday, the 28-year-old pop star posted an Instagram video meant to convey her excitement for episode four, which aired later that night.
Azalea shared a fan-made meme that was based on a clip from the new music video for her song “Started.” In the clip, Azalea opens the door for a guest, who kisses her on each cheek before exclaiming, “Yes, he’s dead!!”
Text above the footage read: “My reaction to Arya Stark killing the Night King,” a reference toMaisie Williams‘ character, who wasthe heroine from the epic Battle of Winterfell episodethat aired the week prior to Azalea’s post.
“Can it hurry up and be 9pm already!” Azalea captioned the post. “P.S. If you aren’t ‘caught up’ ‘just started watchinggggg’ or ‘didnnnt have time to watch yet’ cry me a river cause I didn’t watch on the dot for damn near a decade to not be able to talk about the episodes cause your ass is late. Suck a d—!”
“Y’all should be caught up. Cry somewhere else,” one user wrote, while another chimed in, “For real, y’all had 8 years to catch up. I don’t feel bad for people just starting it and complaining about spoilers. Also if you haven’t seen the latest episode you had a week.”
However, other commenters called her out for sharing the spoiler. “Iggy i luv ya gurl but I will never forgive you for this spoiler,” one person wrote.

Azalea isn’t the only musician to recently praise the youngest Stark sister.
At theBillboard Music Awardsearlier this month,Drakegave her a shoutoutwhile accepting the golden microphone for the top Billboard 200 album.
After thanking Billboard — and asking for a “glass of champagne” — he then offered props to Maisie Williams’ character. “Hey, shout out to Arya Stark forputting in that work last week!”
In an interview withEntertainment Weeklyafter the episode, Williams, who has played Arya since the series premiered in 2011, saidshe wasn’t sure how fans would reactto the development at first.
“It was so unbelievably exciting,” she said. “But I immediately thought that everybody would hate it; that Arya doesn’t deserve it.”
“The hardest thing in any series is when you build up a villain that’s so impossible to defeat and then you defeat them. It has to be intelligently done because otherwise, people are like, ‘Well, [the villain] couldn’t have been that bad when some 100-pound girl comes in and stabs him,’” she continued. “You gotta make it cool. And then I told my boyfriend and he was like, ‘Mmm, should be Jon though really, shouldn’t it?’”
