If you got $100,000 to perform at the MTV Awards after party would you take the money and: A. Buy like 300,000 stamps. B. Get a pimped out hybrid. C. Build two schools in Africa? 

Well if you’re British singer/rapper M.I.A you definitely would go with option C. That’s right folks! M.I.A is following Madonna and Oprah and building two brand news school in Africa with the money she made from one evening of performing. 

M.I.A revealed her plan from the stage at the after party, saying: ”They’re giving me $100,000. Not bad, eh? I’m going to use it to build schools in Liberia. It costs $52,000 to build a school for 1,000.” 

So go run, carpool or take a bus to the nearest record store and buy some of M.I.A’s music so she can build more schools!!
