M.I.A. might actually have some sense

March 7th, 2009 // 82 Comments

Latina.com reported on Friday that British singer M.I.A., who co-wrote and performs the Slumdog Millionaire song “O… Saya,” named her newborn son Ickitt, but later that day, the singer posted on her MySpace that the name was wrong. MSNBC reports:

“My baby is not called Ickitt, Pickit or Lickit, thank you very much!” the singer wrote. “I didn’t release the baby name because I didn’t think it was news. … Go pick on Apple, Satchel and Moon Unit!”

I don’t really have any idea who M.I.A. is, but I think it’s funny that some site just randomly made up the name Ickitt and thought they’d get away with saying that’s what her baby’s name was. Has that ever worked? Like in the entire history of time? “What’s that? A somewhat famous person just had a baby and we don’t know what it’s name is? Let’s just say she named it Banana Hammock. No no, I think it’ll be okay. This should work. I really feel like this is the year we finally get that Pulitzer!”

    #9 must be her one fan.

    #17 What a ringing endorsement! She’s getting old and therefore her dating profile is on your site?

    I think you must be the greatest advertiser in history! “Come to my dating website, we’ve got old ‘celebrities’ you’ve never heard of!”

    M.I.A. is nothing worth even mentioning. The music is very bad, child or no child, it certainly does not deserve any sort of nomination or even worth being compared with other greats such as Britney Spears.
