M.I.A. plays 'last ever show'
Posted:
Prone to hyperbolic statements she may be, but none other than the New York Times are reporting that M.I.A. repeatedly told her audience at Bonnaroo this weekend that the show would be her last.
“This is my last show, and I'm glad I'm spending it with all my hippies," CMU report her to have said from the stage in Tennessee, before pointing out that the singer also cancelled a series of festival appearances last week.
She was also recently engaged to Benjamin Brewer, guitarist and vocalist with NY indie types The Exit and son of Warner Music Group chairman Edgar Bronfman Jnr.
Maya and Benjamin sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes… Perhaps?

she didn't say it was her last show EVER
it's the last show of her tour, because she cancelled the rest of it

har
saying M.I.A. is "prone to hyperbolic statements" is like saying Bono "has a fairly good opinion of himself"
-
Uncalled for?
Yep. I'm as gutted as anybody she's cancelled the shows mind. WaaaAAAAA

no

OMG
I don't care? I'm just discussing what I think about MIA on the DiS message board. Shes pissed me off alot with this. She really should be concerned what people who buy her records (eg. me) think anyway... this has actually alienated me alot. She has a habit of doing it, its not cool.

Not really. I love her music
it's such a shame that she's cancelled on me twice >:(

...
Only a black-hearted cynic would make a correlation between her quitting her day job and her recent engagement to a man who has a very healthy trust fund indeed.
