Girls We Heart: M.I.A.

Not only does British/Sri Lankan singer M.I.A have the sickest fashion sense and one-of-a kind musical style, she also has a big heart! She recently performed at an MTV Awards after-party and announced that she would donate half of her $100,000 fee to charity. Her plan is to use the money to build schools in Liberia, where $52,000 will fund a school for a 1000 students.

In a recent development M.I.A just announced at the Bonnaroo musical festival that her performance there was to be her last gig ever. Let’s hope that this is just a nasty rumor because we definitely need musicians in the game who care about giving back.
