Caz those pics are fab!

Special shout out to my Fokkerz Iona, Sara, Dan and Caz and the lovely Jules and fabulous Deb. You have made my weekend very special. It was lovely to see Kev at the party too. Big love

Wow. Where to start. Like Caz, I had my reservations for last night's gig. Last October had taken the shine off of my Mika fandom experience and I felt that it would be my last. However, I had some of most favourite people coming, we had great tickets so I thought "#### it, I'm going to bloody well enjoy myself". The party beforehand was absolutely lovely. Everyone was friendly and the atmosphere was great. I had a few gins and really got into the swing of it and met lots of new faces. Many thanks to Deb for arranging this. She really works so hard to make sure everyone has a good time. I loved our big picture and as I said at the time, I really don't get on my knees for everyone We skipped the support act. I had listened to them on Spotify murdering Artic Monkeys and didn't think it was my kind of thing. We had fun with the MuMu girls and I had a couple more glasses of Dutch courage. We got to our seats and there were people seating in them. I guess they thought they were free, I would have probably done the same if I thought no one was going to use them. The theatre is beautiful. The set looked really good and I was ready. I'm not sure if anyone has pointed out to Mika that the M on his throne looks exactly like the same font used for Morrisons supermarket here in the UK. I doubt that he shops their though, I reckon he is more of a sainsburys man. Anyway, so after much anticipation the show started. I usually skip porcelain on the album but this rendition was good. Like really good. Mika's voice was on form. He looked confident, even with his eyes closed feeling the lyrics. Then bang! Big girl. Memories came flooding back. I was sitting next to BlueEyes and we first met in 2007 on the shoot for the big girl video. When shooting the video we were taught dance moves to do and during the 'ahah' bit it was a hand wave across to the right. So BlueEyes and I in unison did the ahah bits together. Standing in front of me, the cheeky grin appeared and it could have been 2007 all over again. I got really emotional. Not for the only time I might add. Talk about you and good wife were OK but you could tell that Mika and the crowd were enjoying themselves. I really liked Grace Kelly at the piano. I wish Mika would save this for his encore. I know he must be so fed up of playing it after ten years but it's Grace Kelly. Grace Kelly the number 1 hit. Just my 2 cents. Rain was fantastic. I've always enjoyed it and was so glad he chose to sing last night. Again dance moves were involved including what my fellow Fokkerz call the Double Mana. Those who know know. I think this is why enjoyed the gig so much. It felt old Skool Classic Mika (ooh good name for an album). Good guys and origin of love were good and I enjoyed singing along. Relax felt special. I loved his introduction explaining about 7/7. This is the first song I heard from Mika back in 2006. He was on the Scott Mills show on Radio One explaining its meaning. This has always stuck with me. At the London gig I felt it touched a lot of hearts, especially the UKers. Bravo Mika! I was a very happy Jemma at this point. Staring at the sun was a highlight, especially for the girls in the Royal Circle. I thought this was a really nice touch. I also admired the fabulous appliqué work in Mika's t-shirt. Isn't it funny what goes through your mind at a concert? By this point I was desperate for the loo so during underwater (how appropriate) I had to go to the ladies. I've never really enjoyed this song, although I know it's some people's favourite. The pronunciation of water or WATer bugs me. It sounds funny to my ears. So I ran, shoeless there and back as quick as I could. Lollipop and the introduction to it, I enjoyed. I must admit I miss the old band. I'm sure they are very pleasant and nice people but they don't have the interaction or stage presence of the old guys. I can't even tell you these guys names. I find this quite sad. Loved Promiseland. I feel this is the new album's saving grace. I'm so pleased he did this. It really is a crowd pleaser. Happy Ending was just fabulous. I liked the choir but their mics weren't loud enough to have impact. The crowd were louder. I've always enjoyed the interaction part. I think this is my favourite Mika song. By this stage I was totally back in love. The off mic but was a really nice touch. Mika's voice sounded powerful. He really is impressive live. Over my shoulder was so emotional. I loved that Alex sang with him. Their voices together and the chemistry between them to hit the notes in the right places was spot on. You can tell they've known each other forever and it really worked. Such a powerful song, I love it so much. It felt like a special treat. I didn't think the gig was going to get any better but then bam! We Are Golden! Bloody hell. Amazing. I lapped it up. I was feeling so spoiled by the set list. Absolutely fantastic. It just got better and better. This was the gig I was waiting for. Last party was really moving, I like Mika's voice and felt fully absorbed. The encore of Love Today was perfect. I jumped up and down like a loon. This had been such a good gig. I'm now going to mention the elephant in the room. No French songs. Mika I could kiss you. This was the gig I was waiting for and needed. It was the booty call at 2 o'clock in the morning from an old lover. I have my Mika glow back. It has made all the crap I had gone through worth it. For that, I am truly thankful. After the gig the world and his wife had gone to the stage door. There were so many people that they were standing in the road in the middle of a busy London street. It was mental. I saw a glimpse of him in his car and that was that. London is too popular to have meet and greets and for him to come out after. I actually feel that it would have put people's safety in danger. There are just too many people waiting, myself included. I thought that Mika's Instagram videos were a really nice touch and the video of him receiving the year book was just lovely. It's nice to hear that you're appreciated. Although I haven't been involved in a year book since about 2010 it made me realise how much I love the mfc and how dear I hold my friends that I have made on this crazy journey. Yesterday was probably one of the best days I've had for a very long time.

It doesn't.

I am not hating on you.

As myself and others have tried to explain this to you and you still don't get it, then perhaps just leave this topic alone? I said one thing in jest for five seconds of my life and now have to pay sacrifices for 6 months later. I've said sorry to Mika so please just stop this now. I was wrong but Mika in how he has lied and reacted, in my opinion is much worse.

So it's not his fault that people have been calling me a xenophobic racist? The whole thing has been blown out of all proportion. Mika can sing what he wants, it's his show. How I've been treated for shouting out something said in jest is totally out of order. I have received abuse on social media from people who have never interacted with me or heard about me before Tuesday. I'm sure loads of you have come into this thread to read the drama and then pm each other the latest gossip. I'm totally sick of it. I am not a xenophobe. I love France and my French friends. I'm not racist and if you knew me personally you would definitely know this. I am not a mean person. I'm not intolerant. I accidentally hurt the feelings of a pop star as I was hurt leading up to the moment. This doesn't give Mika the right to slag me off at a concert in France saying that I need more sex in my life and then 6 months later say on television that I'm mean & intolerant. This also doesn't give the right for anyone to abuse me. The last couple of days have been complete hell for me and I'm sure it's not going to stop anytime soon. That is Mika's fault.

Your pictures are what I would call "kissing arse" or "brown nosing" which are harsh compared to suck up

Being a " suck up" really isn't that bad. It means agreeing to impress. People at work suck up to me if they want something done for example. I would suck up to my boss if I wanted some time off. I don't know where you are getting those visual representations from. It doesn't convey what it means at all.

The fact that Mika said I need Boum Boum Boum in my life to thousands of fans really upset me and was uncalled for. I wasn't being mean or malicious as I said before. The last 24 hours has been absolute hell for me.

When Mika said "not everyone will understand"when talking about BBB I shouted out "That's because it's in ####ing French". I meant it in jest, not malicious. Yes I was angry. Yes I had a couple of drinks before the show. Should I have not been so emotional about a subject we had been talking about since 2012? I wasn't abusive. I heckled him a bit. I've known him a long time. He knows what I'm like. I wasn't intolerant. I wasn't bullying him. I've given my side of the story in my video. What has really hurt me is the FANS (some of them from this fan club) on Twitter calling me a rude cow, bitch, ****, pig etc and the "Mika can sing what he wants campaign". If he had a Japanese song would you like to here that instead of WAG in Germany for example? Now trolls leave me alone.

The four albums thing I said to a friend behind me not to Mika. As BBB started playing Mika was explaining that not many people understand and I said "that's because it's in French!" I was not being nasty, just vocal.

Ok so i heard what Mika said about me today. It really hurts. I made this video to explain my feelings on it. I'm so upset. http://youtu.be/2LJxr5siObs

So apparently according to Mika I need some BBB in my life. How insulting. I am so disappointed and upset by this. So low.

I chose the heckling route
