Iggy Pop and his cockatoo Biggy Pop, who is so noisy the singer is often driven out of his home

Rock wild man Iggy Pop is being out-shouted by his crazy cockatoo called Biggy Pop.

The bird has such a mighty squawk that it drives Iggy out of his Miami mansion.

The Lust for Life singer seeks sanctuary in a second home – a bungalow in Little Haiti, nine miles away.

Iggy, 75, revealed his Moluccan salmon-crested cockatoo can hit 130 decibels – equal to a plane taking off or close-range gunfire.

The Stooges star, who has had Biggy for more than 15 years, added from his bolthole: “This is somewhere to get away from that bird!”

Biggy headbangs and dances to music, mimics sounds and has 109,000 followers on Instagram after Iggy tickled fans with social media posts.

In one message, Iggy – writing as Biggy – chirped: “I’m a bird, and a real wild one.”

That, of course, was a nod to Iggy’s hit Real Wild Child. The rocker is not the first music legend to have a quirky pet.

Michael Jackson had his monkey Bubbles, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash kept snakes, and Courtney Love had a turtle.
