M.I.A. has pulled out of this weekend's Glastonbury Festival.

The London-born rapper - real name Mathangi Arulpragasam - has not given a reason for her cancellation. She was due to play the Park Stage on Friday night. The Park Stage?

Presumably she, like DiS, has fallen foul of the welly shortage currently causing the capital's Glasto-bound hacks to seek out plastic bin liners and sheets of bubblewrap.

As yet no replacement act has been announced. Bothered? Nah. M.I.A.'s new LP, Kala, is released via XL on august 20.


so much for the duet with akala

that was never going to happen anyway


Is the Park Stage

too far away from the cider tent then?


in my experience

everything at Glastonbury is miles away from everything else.


An MIA Wurzles collaboration

would make my life complete.


Wouldn't...

that make anyones life complete...
