SUNDAY MIRROR 11 February 2007 CAUGHT LIVE! MIKA Siobhan Grogan In Berkeley Square, London IF you like your music serious and fun-free, look away now. Mika Penniman has already attracted disapproval from certain dour critics unsettled by the fact they weren't required to give permission for the 23-year-old newcomer's runaway success. Regardless, Lebanese-born Mika's rise to stardom seems unstoppable now. He came from nowhere to Number One on downloads alone with the brilliant Grace Kelly and is currently enjoying his third week in the top spot while the rest of the country wonders just who this deliriously joyful newcomer is. Just a handful of the curiou…

For those of you who don't have Myspace Mika sent this message to his "friends" Hi and thank you from MIKA (in San Fran) I just wanted to send out a huge thank you to everyone who has supported me on here over the past few months. I know exactly where the bulk of support I’ve been getting has come from. I have just received a text message telling me that the album has made number one in the UK. I am sitting here in my hotel room in San Francisco, its 3:00 am, I’m totally jet-lagged and everyone is sound asleep. Funny how things pan out. So I sit quietly elated, gorging on the junk food in the mini bar. Thank you, to all of you. Mika xx (jus…

I don't know if this has been posted somewhere, but just in case i'll post it again. Your childhood seems to be filled with adventure, could you tell me maybe a story or two growing up? When you come from a family where you move around a lot traveling certainly doesn’t become an issue anymore apart from money of course. Ill never forget on the several occasions where my mother and father had an enormous fight we left for Portugal and another time in Rome…and another time in NY. Anytime that he would blow the fuse with my mother we got a free holiday out of it and we would go on these adventures. When you consider I come from a family of 5 children thatâ…

THE INDEPENDENT By Simon Price 11 February 2007 Outside the giant tent erected in Berkeley Square, the trees are illuminated pink and officers of the Metropolitan Police are holding back scores of fruity freaks in veiled toppers, ballgowns and feather headdresses. Inside the big top, circus sideshows (acrobatic tumblers, a silver ring juggler, an aerialist on a giant ribbon, a balloon sculptor) and unlimited free toffee apples, popcorn, candyfloss and booze have been laid on. But they're superfluous: even without them, the carnival atmosphere would still be here. There's a tangible crackle in the air that you only encounter when you're in the presence of an artist w…

Article: http://www.andpop.com British pop star MIKA was nearly forced to scrap his hit single GRACE KELLY after he was threatened by an imposter pretending to be the late actress' son PRINCE ALBERT OF MONACO. The singer, who currently tops the UK singles chart with the track, was shocked to receive the warning on February 1, because on the same day Kelly's daughter - and Albert's sister - PRINCESS STEPHANIE OF MONACO gave the song her seal of approval. Mika says, "I received a letter from the prince saying if I didn't change the title I wouldn't be let in the Principality. I called my lawyer to say, 'This is serious.'" But the 23-year-old had nothing to w…

THIS IS LANCASHIRE By This Is Lancashire reporter 09 Feb 2007 CHART TOPPER: Mika confounded the critics with single His debut single shot to number one in the charts - confounding talent spotter Simon Cowell, who thought Mika didn't have what it takes to be a star. The singer spoke to us, ahead of his gig in Manchester on February 27 about his rise to fame. Mika isn't a conventional musician. His incredulous life history to date, five-octave vocal range, unruly hair and neatly manicured nails ensure that he isn't your average pop star. When Simon Cowell says he's "strange" there's a part of you that has to agree. "He told me that my songs were strang…

Hmmm... Mika appears to have become anti-size 0 icon, and himself little more than a slip of a boy... CW. ---- RADAR TALK OF THE TENTS By Sarah Horne 02/06/07 At the Max Azria show Monday night, hot Parisian DJ Michel Gaubert raised a middle finger to the fashion industry's feeble attempts to encourage "healthy weights" by blaring a tune from British artist Mika. Strains of "Big Girl (You Are Beautiful)" filled the tent as a troupe of ultra-skinny Flavias and Magdalenas did their thing, prompting laughter from the front row, where un-big It-girls Leigh Lezark, Tinsley Mortimer, and Olivia Palermo looked on. Sample lyrics: "Big girl, you are beaut…

I didn't even know I was going until 3.30pm yesterday and was on the train at 4.20pm! (you might think so what you had plenty of time, but I would like to inform you that I had to dress in a carnival fashion!). Unfortunately I was on my lonesome so did what I do best when I'm in a queue, talk to strange randoms about Mika! The sight of the big top was awesome and was lit up with pink fairy lights. After receiving my exclusive…

There's a Mika CDR promo that I just got, which isn't an album promo, but it still has 11 tracks on it. Here's the tracklisting: 1. Love Today 2. Grace Kelly 3. Your Sympathy 4. Happy Ending 5. Billy Brown 6. Ring Ring 7. My Interpretation 8. Stuck In The Middle 9. Any Other World 10. Relax 11. Gave It All Away That's right... 3 (!!) tracks that aren't going to be on the album. Well, 2, if you don't count 'Ring Ring' which is a UK bonus track. Cool stuff, hopefully the songs will end up as a b-side to a single some day. The track 'Satellite', which will be on the UK 7" release of 'Grace Kelly' isn't on it BTW.

Hi, guys! My name is Sawako and I love Mika’s music. I think he’s a kind of genius and a gifted musician. I live in Spain, and nowadays there’re only a few journalists in this country speakin' about Mika’s first album. But I think he’ll be an idol for spanish fans. Here I send you a link with an article in Spanish,written by my husband, who is critic in a spanish newspaper. http://www.guzmanurrero.es/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=43&Itemid=38 Bye, Sawako

THE INDEPENDENT 07 February 2007 Monday was a weird day for the musician Mika, currently atop the singles chart. He was at the heart of a rude exchange between Queen guitarist Brian May and rock critic Alexis Petridis. The journalist panned Mika's album; May urged the "w**ker" Petridis to quit. Judging by his beaming grin on Monday night, Mika enjoyed the altercation. Playing a T-Mobile Street Gig in a big top tent in posh Mayfair, the eccentric delighted a crowd of clowns, cowgirls, monkeys, drag queens and someone dressed as a fly. But the concert was nearly scuppered by noise inspectors hours before. "We were trying to sound-check," Mika said, "and lots of…
