M.I.A.'s Son Ikhyd Will Inherit $8 Billion!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 16 May 2009 12:06:00 GMT

M.I.A.'s infant son, Ikhyd Edgar Arular Bronfman , 3 months, is going to be one rich little dude - he'll inherit nearly $8 billion! Eight billion dollars - can you even imagine?

M.I.A.'s fiance and father to Ikhyd, Benjamin Bronfman, 26, is set to inherit the massive amount of money and it will be passed down to the couple's son at some point.

The fortune was accumulated by Benjamin's family, who are owners of a now defunct Seagram company - once the largest distiller of alcoholic beverages in the world.

A source said the Paper Planes singer doesn't "really care about the money. But it helps." Uh, yes, eight billion clams will probably come in handy!

Although M.I.A. and Benjamin are not married, that won't make a difference in their son inheriting the money and assets.

"They will do the marriage thing when time permits."

Singer M.I.A. welcomed her first child - son Ikhyd Edgar Arular Bronfman - almost three months ago, and she made a recent appearance at the Time 100 Most Influential People in the World Gala. I must say, she was looking awesome!

We got a sneak peek at her baby boy as she and fiance, The Exit singer and guitarist, Benjamin Brewer walked through LAX. That baby is gorgeous!

M.I.A. recently performed at Coachella, and during her set, she said to the crowd, "Can we get some order in the place? My baby's waiting!"

She might still love performing but now that she's a mom, baby comes first!

UPDATE: M.I.A. Did NOT Name Her Baby Ickitt!!!!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 12:04:00 GMT

Oh thank goodness! It was reported that new mom M.I.A. named her nearly-one-month-old baby boy Ickitt but that is not the case... whew! No offense, but that really is an awful name.

M.I.A. updated her MySpace to say:

MY BABY IS NOT CALLED ICKITT, PICKIT OR LICKIT THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL THE HOLLYWOOD PRESS. HES A BABY , HE DONT NEED PRESS!

I DIDNT RELEASE THE BABY NAME BECAUSE I DIDNT THINK IT WAS NEWS!!!!

BUT I WILL BE BACK WITH SOMETHING NEWS WORTHY SOON , TILL THEN GO PICK ON APPLE, SATCHEL AND MOON UNIT.

LOTS OF LOVE STICKIT!!

Ha ha... lots of love stickit... she's cute.

I guess she'll release her baby's REAL name when she's darn good and ready or maybe she won't.

Finally! M.I.A. Names Her Baby Boy!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 17:10:00 GMT

Well, I say finally, but to be fair, I'm sure hip-hop singer M.I.A. named her baby boy soon after his birth, but this is the first time we're hearing his name. She and Benjamin Brewer welcomed him on February 11, and their son is one of the most adorable babies I've ever seen... but his name? Uh, not, something I'd pick. Wanna know what it is?

Find out after the jump!

Ickitt. I don't know, maybe it has some special significance that we're unaware of? Sure, it's obviously her choice what she names her baby and really, he is a beautiful, beautiful baby, but the name...

As we all know, M.I.A. certainly isn't the first celebrity parent to give their child an unusual name.

Maybe it'll grow on us.

*Update* She did NOT name her son Ickitt......HERE!!!!!!

New Mom M.I.A. To Perform At Oscars In A Bed?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 13:05:00 GMT

Hip-hop star and performer M.I.A. welcomed her first child - a son - last Wednesday, and she was scheduled to perform this coming Sunday at the Oscars, however, will the new mom be up for it so soon after the birth of her baby?

Oscar producers Laurence Mark and Bill Condon are willing to do whatever it takes to make M.I.A. comfortable, in the hopes that she'll be performing at the Oscars Sunday evening, even though she's just had a baby.

M.I.A. is scheduled to perform her Oscar-nominated song "O, Saya" from Slumdog Millionaire, and producers are suggesting she perform on a bed!

Said Mark, "She's eager to perform... 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."

I'm thinking she'll do it - if the woman can get her groove on, up on the Grammy stage, when she's ready to pop a baby out, then this should be a piece of cake!

Hip-hop star M.I.A. and fiance Benjamin Brewer welcomed their first child, a son, Wednesday, February 11 and the 31-year-old singer took to her Myspace to talk about her new bundle of joy!

From M.I.A.:

"Sunday night I came home from the Grammys still in the mood to party - I could easily gone out but I went home instead - lucky I did! My early labor kicked in around 2 a.m. My baby was born Wednesday. He is healthy, fine, beautiful and the most amazing thing ever on this planet - of course I'm his mum!! Me and baby are putting our tour dates for 2010 together, making mix tapes and figuring out a way to break out of the hospital! My baby boy says hi!"

Next up - will M.I.A. be up to performing at next Sunday's Academy Awards? She's set to sing "O Saya," her Oscar-nominated song from Slumdog Millionaire.

She must have got things moving after her Grammy performance last Sunday - because hip hop star M.I.A. has given birth to her first child! So, did she have a girl? Or a boy, as she was convinced she was having?

It's a boy! She and fiance Benjamin Brewer welcomed their son on Wednesday, February 11.

Desi Hits asked M.I.A. what she hopes to teach her child: "I would teach my child tons of things. I want my child to see third world countries, and be humble about what he or she has, and have sound judgement."

Congrats! We'll keep you posted with more details as they become available.

A very pregnant M.I.A. took to the stage at the Grammy Awards Sunday evening, and she certainly delivered - well not her baby, but her performance! I was convinced her water was going to break! The hip hop singer, who is having a son, is convinced her boy will be a hip hop star too.

Video after the jump!

Before taking the stage Sunday night, M.I.A. said her little one is poised to be a hip hop star. "He's getting ready for Jay-Z and Lil Wayne. So far, so good.

"I just don't know what labor is. It's my first baby. So I'm not walking around going, 'Maybe this is it.' The baby is just moving around, getting his swagga on."

Pregnant hip-hop star M.I.A. will perform at Sunday's Grammy ceremony, which is awesome, but what's more interesting - is it's also the same day she's due to deliver her baby!

Says the first-time-mom-to-be:

"They say that you're often late the first time, so I'm planning to go. We'll see. People are trying to get me to relax and focus on the baby. It's like being in parallel universes."

Sounds like she's going to keep going until the very end - well, the beginning of her new life with baby!

M.I.A. , who is engaged to musician Benjamin Brewer, is up for two Grammy awards.

Good luck with the show and the baby!

British artist, songwriter and singer M.I.A. has been canceling numerous appearances and went into "retirement," and it's pretty obvious as to why - she's pregnant. Either that or she swallowed a good sized watermelon. I'm going with the pregnancy thing...

More pics after the jump!

M.I.A. performed at Disel party looking very much with child. The 31-year-old recently became engaged Exit member, Benjamin Brewer.

Congrats to the happy couple!
