M.I.A has rubbished Lily Allen's talent, saying she was born into success.
The Sri Lankan rapper believes the 22-year-old pop star - whose father is British comic Keith Allen - only made it in the music business because of her "lucky" family connections.
M.I.A, 30, said: "I really don't know what to say. I guess she is just lucky getting born where she was born, to who she was born to. You can't go wrong. She was born into a really well-set up record, basically."
However, M.I.A does have time for Lily's pop rival Amy Winehouse, because the 'Rehab' star sings from the heart.
She added: "Amy is really interesting. I once saw her in the street and she was really out of it, so I guess she is really living it up. I think Amy's thing is feeling really weird about what she does and dealing with that. It's cool."
