No, she's not engaged to Diplo, sadly.

M.I.A. has got herself a new man….and he's got $$$$$$$$$.

The singer is dating the son of music mogul Edgar Bronfman, Jr.

Her man's name is Benjamin Brewer and PerezHilton.com can reveal that he popped the question less than a week ago.

Ben is also a guitarist for the band The Exit.

M.I.A. tells PerezHilton.com exclusively, "He is the best person in the world, and u sir are so hast. He only put a ring on me like 4 days ago."

We're still hoping her ex, Diplo, will win her back at the altar, like something out of a movie.

But, a millionaire's son isn't a bad catch either!

      last summer with diplo and her touring seaprtly when they both put out new albums last summer. God, she's marrying a music execs son I hope she doesnt end up completely selling out.

      Like she'd want that. You're an idiot Gwen, a simple google search would tell you that Brewer and his family are Canadians.

      Re: Brittn

      MIA is probly the largest influence on female hiphop right now and diplo is an amazing producer/dj who did a travel album last summer where he went to 3rd world countries getting their ideas on what hip hop is. Go look at the URB magazine website and search their names to get a better idea

      53

      M.I.A. was in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada last night.
      I was lucky enought to get tickets to her show. It was by far the best concert I have ever been too. Besides from being so very entertaining, she was very thoughtful and good to ALL her fans. I am a firm believer that if she can do what she did last night at every concert she plays- she will be the most successful person in the music buiss.
      Side note- Kristin Cavallri was there and super drunk! she was with a very hot man wearing a plad shirt and aviators…clearly not "try hard laguna beach" style….take that lauren!

    63. exande says – reply to this


      63

      If she is in love and getting married than I am happy for her because I like her so much. I just don't really know who Ben is, he seems alright from what I know. I also just hope that she is totally over Diplo and is not getting married to spite him or make him jealous or something stupid–but M.I.A. is not stupid so I don't think so. Finally, I hope she is not doing this just for her green card or some legal reason, that would make me want to puke. The cool thing is that Ben is artistic, so hopefully they can inspire each other. I also hope she "pops out some leaders".

      No clue who she is. Really.

      77

      Sooo… M.I.A. is marrying for a green card. This makes her a prostitute, exchanging sex for something of value. And Ben is no artist, he's a spoiled, filthy rich sycophant who fancies himself an artist. So in a way he is a prostitute as well. He gets some artistic cred for marrying MIA and she gets citizenship. Sounds like match made in a fancy brownstone with no shower.
