M.I.A. Restraining Order: Rapper Banned From Leaving Brooklyn With Son

Rapper M.I.A. has been banned from leaving the borough of Brooklyn with her son, thanks to a restraining order obtained by baby daddy Benjamin Bronfman. M.I.A. was reportedly threatening to take their 4-year-old son, Ikhyd, to England, her home country, until Bronfman put the kibosh on that plan, court order style. Bronfman and M.I.A. were never married, and split up last year. They both live in Brooklyn, separately, and Ikhyd goes to school there. Clearly there is a nasty, ongoing custody war between M.I.A. and Bronfman. She has Tweeted in the past that her former partner and his billionaire family (they own Seagrams, Inc.) conspire to “to take my child away from me.” No comment from M.I.A. directly on this story, though.

You Want… What?!?: The 10 Most Ridiculously Random Celebrity Tour Rider Requests Ever!

Please and Thank You! During a 1982 world tour, Van Halen, a famous rock band in the 80′s made the now-legendary demand that all brown M&Ms be removed from candy bowls in their dressing rooms. Ever since, fans and critics have made a hobby of finding celebrities’ often outlandish demand lists, called riders; for what venues must provide them during appearances. This week, Super Bowl bird-flipper M.I.A.’s tour rider leaked and it was full of fawkery! Buried among requests for Vitamin Water and European cheeses is the demand for “three women between the ages of 20 and 25 to dance on stage wearing full-body burqas.” So here’s a look back at ten of the most ridiculous items on other celebrity riders…

Madonna on M.I.A. Middle Finger: Out of Place, Childish

Add Madonna to the list of those who thought M.I.A.’s actions during halftime of Super Bowl XVLI were stupid and childish. A few days after she anchored a mostly positively-reviewed show , The Material Girl called in to On Air with Ryan Seacrest and reacted to M.I.A’s action as follows: “I was really surprised. I didn’t know anything about it. I wasn’t happy about it. “I understand it’s punk rock and everything, but to me there was such a feeling of love and good energy, and positivity, it seemed negative. It’s such a teenager… irrelevant thing to do.. here was such a feeling of love and unity there. What was the point?” M.I.A. Gives the Finger In a separate interview, Madonna later told Carson Daly that M.I.A. did call her to apologize, but the iconic artist concluded of the action: “It was just out of place.”

3 Reasons Nicki Minaj Could Have Skipped The Super Bowl

Read this article:

The Super Bowl’s Half Time Show is always the spectacle when it comes to the big game. This year, 53-year-old Madonna proved why she is and always will be the Queen. She flexed her relevancy by sharing the stage with pop culture phenoms LMFAO, M.I.A., Nicki Minaj and Ceelo Green. LMFAO, Ceelo and M.I.A. all had their own standout moments, but what did our beloved Barbie get? Literally three seconds of grinding her booty on Madonna, 15 seconds of her signature face morphing rhymes and a crotch shot or two. Nicki’s used to being the spectacle, so why’d she get the shaft in this star-studded half time show? Here’s three reasons why Nicki could have saved the trip and watched from her couch. 1. M.I.A.’s Little Birdy We all know M.I.A. had her middle finger moment , and that’s what all the water cooler talk is about today. It’s no Janet Jackson nipple, but her cameo was as small as Nicki’s so M.I.A. made sure she was remembered in her performance with Madonna. 2. All About Ceelo Ceelo Green is having the best year ever. After his cult classic hit, “F*ck You,” this former Goodie Mobb vocalist is in high demand. Madonna let him take the spotlight from drum major to swathed in sequins and Ceelo drank every little shining second in. We almost forgot that Nicki was even a part of this show. Ceelo also gets a gold star for not lip syncing. 3. Cheers! Madonna had her own army of Minaj look-alike cheerleaders who got more stage time that Nicki. Something ain’t right when the extras get more play than the star. Do you think Nicki Minaj’s short appearance with Madonna at the Super Bowl was worth the trip?
