M.I.A. Disses GaGa

M.I.A is keen to grab a few headlines now that her song from Slumdog Millionaire has slipped from out CD collection, so what better way to do it than have a pop at the first lady of music, Lady GaGa?

Desperate for attention, M.I.A. said she encountered the Telephone singer at a ball in New York but wasn't impressed by her reputation. "[Oprah] made this huge speech at the ball praising Lady GaGa about how she is helping Americans to be the best of themselves," she explained.

"There's millions of other Americans who represent that for me... Is it truly about the journey? Because [Lady GaGa's] journey isn't that difficult: to go from the f**king Upper East Side to a f**king performing arts school and onto a stage at the museum of f**king wherever. That journey's about four miles."

Yikes, bitter much?
