MIA Gives Birth

Sri Lankan born singer M.I.A. went into labour just hours after the Grammys, and has given birth to a baby boy.

The musician revealed previously that she was due to give birth on the day of the Grammys, leading some wags to predict a spectacular is unusual performance. The singer had been nominated for Record Of The Year with 'Paper Planes', and performed the song at the ceremony.

The singer went into labour soon after the performance, giving birth to a baby boy. Predictably, the entire process was recorded in Myspace blogs. M.I.A. told fans that:

“SUNDAY NITE I CA M E HOME FROM THE GRAMMY'S STILL IN THE MOOD TO PARTY , I COUDA EASILY GONE OUT BUT I WENT HOME INSEAD , LUCKY I DID!! COZ MY EARLY STAGE LABOUR KICKED IN AROUND 2 AM ."

"MY BABY WAS BORN WEDNESDAY , HE IS HEALTHY , FINE , BEAUTIFUL AND THE MOST AMZING THING EVER ON THIS PLANET, OF COURSE IM HIS MUM!!!"

"ME AND BABY ARE PUTTING OUR TOUR DATES FOR 2010 TOGETHER AND MAKING MIX TAPES AND FIGURING OUT A WAY TO BREAK OUT OF THE HOSPITAL ! HOPEFULLY THE WORLD IS BEEN TICKING ALONG AND I AINT MISSED MUCH!”

Best wishes to M.I.A. from all at ClashMusic!
