According to Pitchforkmedia, British (via Sri Lanka) pop star M.I.A. has been denied entry to the United States. She was due to come to America to record her second album with producer Timbaland. She posted the following message on her MySpace page:
"THEY TRY SHUT MY DOOR!

Apparently, M.I.A.'s lawyers are already on the case.
