: Onlookers were stunned when singer M.I.A. took the stage over the weekend showing an obvious baby bump. But MediaTakeOut.com is hearing whispers that onlookers backstage were even more stunned.
Tells an insider, "Pharrell and [M.I.A.] were together and everyone was wondering whether he was the father ... She exactly his type [looks wise] and she's being very secretive about who the father is."
Not very much to go on, we know. But the above quote came from someone VERY close to Pharrell...
EDITOR'S UPDATE - M.I.A. is now telling people that the child is by her fiance - and not by Pharrell.

SMHatMTO Flag post WHOMP WHOMP
wrong again MTO.. how about lets research first b4 we report
shes engaged to a dude name Benjamin Brewer!!!!!damn even google knew dat!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lol...damn mto...get it together
MTO you guys absolutely do not have any integrity. Aren't you guys suppose to research a story before you put it up. SHE IS ENGAGED AND PREGNANT AND IT IS NOT TO PHARRELL. HER FIANCE IS AN HEIR TO SEAGRAMS LIQOUR. HE IS BLACK AND IN A BAND. I'M CONVINCED THAT MTO JUST PUTS ANYTHING UP WITH NO FACTS WHATSOEVER.
I was reading about her yesterday and as others have posted above, she's engaged to Benjamin Brewer, from the band The Exit. This is his groups Myspace: [link to external website]
For those saying "who is she", please stop confining your music listening to BET and garbage commercial radio stations that play the same 10 songs all day every day...
M.I.A. is an incredibly talented and dope artist...Her lyrics are socially and politically relevant and she has a cool way of blending hip-hop, dance hall and electronic....Galang was the shyt when it dropped and her first album was on a lot of "Top Album of the Year" lists...People can dis but this chick has more talent in her pinkie that a lot of these fraud birds dropping poppy tunes on the radio today....Add to that the visual art she does and the chick is a compelling artist.
As to the pregnancy, who knows...sounds like typical gossipy industry people....They see her pregnant and start speculating....Good luck to her regardless of who the dad is...
THIS HER BABY DADDY MTO [link to external website]
ANYWAY I LIKE HER SONG PAPER PLANES AND SHE BEEN OUT FOR AWHILE NOW...
Good lord that would be one crazy creative kid. Even though I don't believe it. Isn't some other girl pregnant for Pharrell? And she is FIRE Foxy90210 she sings that song Paper Planes the song that is sampled for Swagger Like Us with T.I. Kanye Jay-Z etc. Do all you guys listen to is BET? Damn this girl is talented um surprised more people don't know about her.
Well said @ esotericdredz! Seriously some folks really need to broaden their horizons on the music tip and get a clue... There is so much more out there than just that repetive bullsh!t jibberish played on the radio! I hadn't heard that she was married but she is engaged, she's had a very interesting life... She's from Sri Lanka & moved to London when she was young, her family had to flee the country because of political issues.
@ ESOTERICDREDZ, OK I WAS ABOUT TO SAY, "WHO IS SHE?" SO NOW I'LL CHECK HER OUT. I LIKE MUSIC WITH SUBSTANCE. OR JUST VARIETY. ALOT OF THIS STUFF IS SOUNDING THE SAME TO ME. LIKE A BUNCH OF 80'S SONGS. DON'T GET ME WRONG, THERE WAS SOME GOOD STUFF IN THE 80'S LIKE SOS BAND, MICHAEL J, MADONNA, ZAPP, PRINCE, CHERELLE, SHIRLEY MURDOCK, CHAKA KHAN AND OTHERS. BUT SOME OF THIS NEW STUFF SOUNDS GENERIC TO ME.
ALWAYS WRONG WIFF INFO SMDH AT YOU MTO The Real Story Goes Like This She is expecting the baby with her fiancé, the Exit lead singer Ben Brewer, who also happens to be the son of Warner Music Group CEO Edgar Bronfman Jr. She didn't reveal any details about the gender or how far along she is, but she did have this very important message for her young fans: "I got engaged first, then I got pregnant, kids."

"M.I.A. Confirms Pregnancy 13-Oct-2008 Written by: Marissa Willman
The singer confirmed rumors she was pregnant on Saturday.
After pictures from a performance on Saturday sparked baby bump rumors in the blogosphere, singer M.I.A. laid the pregnancy rumors to rest by confirming that she is expecting, according to People magazine.
“I’m creating a baby,” the 31-year-old singer told Pitchfork Media over the weekend.
"When I found out I was pregnant and 'Paper Planes' was in the iTunes top 10, it seemed like the whole world was reshuffled in one week, and all my plans went out the window," she said. "I've got two kids, that's what it feels like. And that's the lesson – you can't make plans."
The singer’s fiancé is Ben Brewer, the guitarist for The Exit. The couple chose not to reveal the baby’s gender or when the baby is due. M.I.A. pointed out that she was serious about their relationship and having children.
“I got engaged first, then I got pregnant, kids,” she said.
The singer said she is recording a few tracks for a new album, but first she will have to make the rounds with her family.
"I have to do the rounds – go see my family and show them the belly,” she said.
This is the first child for the couple. "
So I'm guessing it's not Pharrell's baby.
Man I had to join cuz so many whack niguz is trying to hate on my girl.
If you don't know who she is, type her name in, check out her music and break free from the shackles of force fed BET and mainstream media bullish.
I didn't know she was preg though, that chick was not only fine as hell her whole steez beats that of any of these hating brawds!
Dudes that applies to you as well.
