Keeping cool about it, the singer posted a shot of herself on set with franchise stalwart Rodriquez and titled it '#Fun' while shooting.

Ironically, she's following in the steps of Rita Ora who appears on Azalea's latest single, Black Widow.

The 23-year-old Brit had a bit part in the last Fast And Furious movie- the sixth - which was filmed partially in her home town of London.

The two beauties may have been sharing tips on the set of the cinematic video clip to their new track, which has been shooting in downtown LA recently.

It has already been a massive year for Iggy, who had her first No.1 in the US with her track Fancy with Charli XCX, off her debut album The New Classic.

She was also announced as the host of MTV series House Of Style, which will begin filming later this year.
