    Ok, I didn't watch last night and I don't know when that pic up there is from, but Jesus Christ. Why didn't I appreciate this woman when I was like 15? Has she actually gotten more attractive now that she's 48 or whatever?

    I will forever remember M.I.A's Grammy Performance as a Great Moment in Feminism. She rapped alongside "the boys" 9 months pregnant and she didn't do it in some flowy maternity piece of shit, she wore a polka-dot leotard and rocked the shit out of the stage. She was a badass. I was proud.

    The only thing that would have made it better was if she had brought someone with her whose only purpose was to drop to the floor and put their hands out underneath her, ready to catch, every time that she stopped.

    And this my friends is why you never want to become popular with hipsters. Once you become popular amongst the unwashed masses, the hipsters will turn on you.

    I just realized: by making MIA part of the "rap pack" thing, the Grammys managed a way to present "Paper Planes" without having to air the gunshot hook.

    I just looked it up.Yesterday was MIA's actual due date, which for those who don't know is actually 10 months (pregnancy is 40 weeks)...


    I am completely in awe.


    I am 37 weeks pregnant right now and must take a nap after just watching that comfortably reclining on my sofa with a handful of pudding pops...


    And I don't even see a noticeable waddle. I am going to buy copies of all of her records immediately.

    @zee: Wow, congrats Zee. Do you know what you're having or is it a surprise?


    With all due respect to MIA, there are 4 million births in the U.S. each year. 75% of these women work. So, I think MIA looked great, and "rocked it", etc. - but let's face it - that is her job, and there are millions of women out there doing theirs for a lot less pay, TV time, and hair & makeup staff.


    She had to show up for one night and do a performance for a few minutes. Plenty of us did 8-hour days, plus a commute, and listened to our bosses whine "how long until you think you would be available by phone?" until the contractions started.

    40 weeks in 9 1/4 months.

    @CaptainFantastic: Thank you for pointing that out. Continuing in the helpful/TMI spirit, I will add that a full-term pregnancy is actually 40 weeks minus 2 weeks, since they date a pregnancy from the first day of your last period, not the day you conceive.

    @zee:


    Thanks, we're having a boy.


    Also, sure it's her job, but dancing about on stage while shouting out lyrics on your due date is not something anyone in any movement oriented profession tends to do and to do well. That is most likely why you do not see many knocked up Sugarplum Fairies prancing about.


    And no matter the math of it all (and we can also throw in that it's all an estimate, etc...), at that point in time, it feels like a lot of weeks and all the fun stuff is over.


    I merely pointing out, that the woman is WAY pregnant and she did a great job, not to discount at all the millions of women who have also been pregnant.


    And yes, there are still pudding pops...mmmm, but also make some pudding and stick in the freezer. Good stuff, too and highly recommended in a pinch!
