M.I.A. is once again in the headlines for making incendiary comments about a fellow celebrity, but this time she's taken on a lofty target -- the "Queen of Media" herself, Oprah Winfrey. 

In a new interview with Time Out London, M.I.A. said Winfrey gave her the "cold shoulder" when they both attended the Metropolitan Costume Insitute Gala in May. "She was with Iman [Bowie]. Iman was always dancing with me, hugging and kissing me, but Oprah seemed really pissed off with me," the singer recalled. 

M.I.A.: The Billboard Cover Story

M.I.A. also took issue with the media mogul for complimenting Lady Gaga. "She made this huge speech at the ball praising Lady Gaga and about how she [Lady Gaga] is helping Americans to be the best of themselves. There's millions of other Americans who represent that for me.

"Is [it] about numbers? About how much you're selling?" M.I.A. continued. "Is it truly about the journey? Because [Lady Gaga's] journey isn't that difficult: to go from the fucking Upper East Side to a fucking performing arts school and on to a stage at the museum of fucking wherever. That journey's about four miles."
