M.I.A. wants to sing at the Oscars through a hologram.
The 31-year-old rapper - who gave birth to her baby son , just days after she performed at the Grammys - is so keen to sing at the upcoming award ceremony she is considering using a
computer-generated image of herself.
M.I.A. is up for an award in the best original song category for her
collaboration with AR Rahman on 'O Saya' - a song which features on the
soundtrack of the Danny Boyle film 'Slumdog Millionaire'.
Speaking about the new mother's possible Oscar performance, Indian composer
Rahman said: "She wants to. In fact, she said she'll do it with a hologram.
She has all these ideas. I don't know how it's going to be possible, though.
Having a baby is such an important thing in your life - more important than
winning an Oscar."
Oscars producer Laurence Mark is hoping to tempt M.I.A. into performing at
the annual awards by making her as comfortable as
possible.
He said: "She's eager to perform. we've said things like 'We're willing to
have her enter on a large bed'. We'll make it as easy for her as we can."
