Outrageous political statements??????? The Clash?!??!

um yr kidding... right?

hro seems like the only appropriate outlet for a story like this

NYT comment box poster OTM:

From this 9 page article, she comes off as a walking talking Che t-shirt, a mangled mix of confused politics, pop-hop and a blend of cheap fashion accessories. Her gross ignorance of the Sri Lankan conflict and outright support of a known terrorist organization is unforgivable.

This has become such a boring and repetitive affair. Another rich and extravagant pop star who munches on truffle-filled french fries, while sitting in posh Brentwood mansion, espousing grade school level geo-political ideas while praising war and violence in the name of 'justice'. This is the prototypical Che Guevarra t-shirt syndrome.

But at least her music is somewhat danceable.

i bet she's just really pissed that she's on her way to being another boring eccentric rich cornball mommy in Brentwood, the lamest, richest,yuppiest neighborhood ever

this nyt story is hilarious

outrageous political statements with a luxe lifestyle;

Idi Amin

she has many years of freaking the neighbors out while escorting her dogwalker around the neighborhood with her outrageous print dresses and jewelry

carles manages to eyeroll the original piece while picking out the bloggable bits: a tour de force:

Srsly. She made the situation in Sri Lanka even worse. She doesn’t even know what she is talking abt.

just saying that when she dies and they find the refrigerator full of music journos heads you heard it here first

thank god google shut down my music blog

but animated gifs COULD bring about peace in sri lanka

I blame truffles

this is just standard "you are too rich to actually care about the poor" sorta bullshit

i've never had truffle fries, are they good? i'm not even entirely sure what they are.

they're fucking incredible (french fries covered in truffle oil)

just truffle oil on fries nothing really special

xp nm

yeah, i'll have to find a place around here that serves them ....

fries made out of poor third world children iirc

yes they are, and im kinda amused that they're being held up as some sort of mark of the wealthy since i think i paid uh the princely sum of $5 the last time i had them

"The messages have mostly been from people trying to hook up with M.I.A.," she said. "If she wants to get together with John at Bard next week, I have his number."

lolll

hirschberg, cold as ice

fries w/ toppings I have eaten, ranked
carne asada fries
chili cheese fries
pastrami fries
truffle fries
foie gras fries

And wait! Breaking! M.I.A. has tweeted again. This time, she tweeted, "NEWS IS AN OPINION! UNEDITED VERSION OF THE INTERVIEW WILL BE ON neetrecordings THIS MEMORIAL WEEKEND!!!"

"I have no idea what she's talking about," said Ms. Hirschberg.

don't know if saltado de pollo counts, don't know why it wouldn't tho

But at least her music is somewhat danceable.

it's near the top

see, this is where that stupid stunt is kind of hilarious; because of how she worded that tweet, it sounded like it was her number so of course it's mostly going to be ppl going "zomg we gotta hang out, don't ice me bro"

carne asada fries, eh? what's happening there?

(sorry for being such a low class french fry guy, i don't live in brentwood ;_;)

basically nachos w/ fries instead of chips

so hungry right now

truffle oil is bullshit imo

carne asada, guacamole, some salsa, cheese, don't remember if there were beans on it or not

chili cheese fries are gross, tho

I was young and high and eventually full enough to forget the world

i support poutine when it comes to fries

this is just standard "you are too rich to actually care about the poor" sorta bullshit

I am not a "foodie" but I think I read something about how most truffle oil is "fake" truffle oil so yeah if you're paying $5 for truffle fries it's probably the b.s. truffle oil

eat yr fries

oh this is probably what I read:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/16/dining/16truf.html?_r=1&ref=dining

i like some mia records but "caring about the poor", really?

sorry it's not about pop provocateur MIA but it's actually pretty interesting

which still doesn't take away from the fact that giving out the journo's # was a total asshole move

eh probably. at the same time, it is funny.

but when you're reading that NYT article about synthetic truffle oil, please remember NEWS IS AN OPINION

from max's link:

And wait! Breaking! M.I.A. has tweeted again. This time, she tweeted, "NEWS IS AN OPINION! UNEDITED VERSION OF THE INTERVIEW WILL BE ON neetrecordings THIS MEMORIAL WEEKEND!!!"

"I have no idea what she's talking about," said Ms. Hirschberg.
