Even though she just gave birth to a baby boy less than a week ago, producers of the Oscars ceremony desperately want M.I.A. to perform at Sunday’s Academy Awards, even if it means singing lying down.
“She’s eager to perform,” said Oscars producer Laurence Mark, “We’ve said things like ‘We’re willing to have her enter on a large bed.’ We’ll make it as easy for her as we can.”
AR Rahman, her collaborator on “O Saya,” which is nominated for Best Original Song, insists M.I.A. is enthusiastic about being a part of the ceremony. “She wants to. In fact, she said she’ll do it with a hologram. She has all these ideas,” AR said.
If anyone can do it, it’s certainly M.I.A. This is the same woman who performed at the Grammys on her due date – and then popped out her baby boy just hours after her performance. She recently blogged that her baby boy was “the most amazing thing on the planet.”
He certainly has a tough act to follow! His mama never stops! [Source: Guardian; Photo: Getty Images]
