M.I.A. To Perform On Her Due Date

So, in case you didn't know, the Grammy Awards are this weekend. Sunday to be exact. Lots of performers at the show. Some I like, some like Justin Timberlake I could take a pass. Actually I will probably just take a pass on the whole show and watch the highlights on the internet. It's sad isn't it? Back in the day before TiVo and YouTube we actually had to sit through all of the awards shows to see the good parts which were few and far between. The only time you didn't have to sit in front of the television and watch was during the Video Music Awards because MTV played them 18 times a day for the next six months. Oh, and your other option was to videotape the show and then try and watch it in quick time and hopefully you would stop it in time to hear the good parts and also that you got around to watching it before you decided to record something else over it.

Well, performing this weekend at the awards will be M.I.A. The funny thing is that her due date is also the day of the show. I'm guessing she won't be doing a lot of dancing up on the stage. I do know that she seems to realize that the life of an artist is small and you may never be invited to perform at the Grammy Awards again so she is taking advantage of it. I don't think anything will happen to her unborn child and if she gave birth right there at the show, people would remember her forever.
