Looky here, you gossip hounds: MIA‘s new baby boy’s name is not news-worthy. Still, someone at Latina Magazine felt it was and reported that the electro-hip hop diva gave her son, who was born only days after she performed on stage at the Grammys with Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, T.I. and Kanye West, the unfortunate moniker Ickitt. Other outlets picked the story up and quickly began bashing the star for the playground-beat-down-worthy name, but the problem is that’s not the name she gave her baby! She took to her Myspace blog to throw water on the name fire:
MY BABY IS NOT CALLED ICKITT, PICKIT OR LICKIT THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL THE HOLLYWOOD PRESS. HES A BABY , HE DONT NEED PRESS!
I DIDNT RELEASE THE BABY NAME BECAUSE I DIDNT THINK IT WAS NEWS!!!!
BUT I WILL BE BACK WITH SOMETHING NEWS WORTHY SOON , TILL THEN GO PICK ON APPLE, SATCHEL AND MOON UNIT.
LOTS OF LOVE STICKIT!!
