M.I.A settles £10m Superbowl lawsuit.American football’s governing body the NFL has settled its lawsuit with M.I.A. after demanding $16.5 million (£10m) for her performance during the 2012 Superbowl. The NFL filed its lawsuit in September 2013, 19 months after the performance, when they were demanding $1.5 million (£910,000) and a public apology. They claimed that M.I.A. intentionally gave the finger as a publicity stunt. By March 2014, the organisation was seeking $16.5 million (£10m). M.I.A. issued a video statement when the lawsuit was first filed saying it was “a massive waste of time and money”. Follow us: @Pressparty on Twitter / Pressparty on Facebook.
