So looking forward to Season 2 of Damages. Glenn Close is simply the best!
1Aww I don't M.I.A. to stop doing concerts, I haven't even see her live yet!
2I am so disapointed she is retiring. And all because she is getting married. I hope this guy didnt brain wash her. She is making a mistake!!!!MIA WAKEUP!!
3Ditto - I wish she weren't retiring from live shows. She's really, really talented. I would have liked to see her perform. But, she seems to play by her own rules, so I hope it works out for her.
4i'm too looking forward for Damages - season 2
5As much as I love M.I.A., she totally sucks live. I'm glad she'll still be recording, though.
