MIA Wants To [gun noises], And [cash register noises] and Take Your Money…To Support Terror!

miavideo Now that retired musician and lover of visual ghastliness MIA suddenly has a song in the trailer to a teen comedy (and the current #3 song on the itunes store), it seems like the American masses are finally, finally starting to take notice. Specifically, the kinds of Americans that consult E! Online when they have a question. Mela in Los Angeles writes:

I really like that M.I.A. single “Paper Planes.” But I hear she supports terror. Is that true? Is she a terrorist?

I don’t know about you, but when I want to know whether or not someone is a terrorist I use E! to get my answers.

Anyway. Here’s a terrible video of some lamewads who were at least hip enough to catch on to this song last year:
