Singer reveals her due date is February 8

Fresh from the news that she has been nominated for Record Of the Year at the 2009 Grammy Awards, MIA has revealed that she may not be there to pick up the gong, should she win it.

The pregnant 'Paper Planes' star took to her Myspace page to tell the world that her baby is due on February 8, which happens to be the same night the Grammys take place.

In a post entitled 'Baby + Grammy' the singer writes: "IS DUE THE SAME DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, so either way i figured ill win."

She goes on to say that if she wins, she will 'never diss the Grammys' ever again.

According to the post, she is currently "in the studio on the grind".
