Thanks, meimei! I haven`t ever read this before. His music really is somekind of mishmash (pop, classic and a little bit of rock too), that`s why I like him SO much! He can be so various

I just can`t choose so I`ve wrote TwO phrases: Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man (Billy Brown) OR Anyway you want to, anyway you got to - love love me (Love Today) rarrr.... P.S. - Great idea!

Hello! I`ve already said that - this is the best place to get obsessive with MiKa! So enjoy!!!

Mika is going all around Europe and even further but will he someday come to Latvia? This is a small country but it makes me feel so fuc***g bad to read all the good things that you all have said about how cute and friendly Mika is. My biggest dream at this moment is to get that silly n totaly wonderful n handsome guy to Latvia! And I`ll do it! What ever it takes

Be welcome! And your cats too! Hope soon you`ll be as obsessive like we are...

Hi! Hope you`ll enjoy being here. This is definitely the right place to tell about your new obsession with our cute angel MiKa

I collect piglets. Last Christmas a friend of mine gave me a pink piglet whit two BIG eyes. I "taught" her to dance and shake her hipps. ...And that`s the way how started the Piglet`s era Now I have 12 little piglets and I`m not going to stop ...I love pooh too... it`s the cutest story I`ve ever read

hm... Jonnie? I don`t know anything about his parents... Well, it`s doesn`t matter, does it? Mika is the greatest anyway

Look what I`ve found! Hope nobody hasn`t put this interview here yet. Currently at the top of the charts with his single Grace Kelly, it's easy to see why the camp performer is already being hailed as the new Freddie Mercury. But the 23-year-old Lebanese-born musician started his career in a far more sedate fashion - as an opera singer. Britain's answer to the Scissor Sisters was a boy soprano with the Royal Opera House where, at 15, he showcased his five-octave vocal range in a landmark 1998 production of The Pilgrim's Progress by Vaughan Williams. Laurie Lewis, a music photographer for more than 25 years, was transfixed by the young man's performance. "He was a very sparky fellow and was definitely tipped for great things," he recalls. "It was as if he found his home on the stage - he was a born performer. I've heard his No.1 Grace Kelly and think it's great. "Moving into pop was a shrewd move because when a boy soprano's voice breaks they're often dumped on the scrapheap. "He has obvious talent - but it was still a surprise to see the wisp of a lad I saw back then riding high in the charts." Opera offered young misfit Mika everything he was looking for - an escape into a world of colour, fantasy and music. The singer says: "It opened my eyes to a world where people work all day long, for weeks, to create an illusion. "Most people's jobs are rooted in reality. But I always wanted to do pop music. It was just a question of getting there my way." Born Michael Holbrook Penniman in Beirut during the Lebanese war, Mika was evacuated to Paris as a baby before settling in London 16 years ago. HE was six when his father, a high-powered American banker, gave in to his precocious demands for loud, tailor-made outfits. "I was a show-off as a kid," Mika admits. "I was wearing bow ties and matching coloured trousers. "In France that made me the really special kid that everyone loved. When I came to London, I had that beaten out of me by everyone I was at school with." He was bullied so incessantly that for almost a year his mum Mary taught him at home. "I kind of broke down," he says. "I stopped reading, stopped writing and that's when my dyslexia really set in for me." Shunned by children his own age, and with only his four siblings for company, music became Mika's refuge. He wrote his first song, an "awful" piano instrumental called Angry, aged seven. At 11, a Russian music teacher discovered his awesome voice and by 12 he was bombarding record companies with demo tapes. "They'd take my calls because I was so young - 'Aw, we'd better talk to him or it would break his little heart'," he says. At 14, or so the Mika legend goes, he gatecrashed a party thrown by record giants RCA, ran to the piano and belted out five songs. Record executives were impressed but didn't know what to do with the teen who brimmed with talent but refused to be pigeon-holed. By then, he was getting used to wowing audiences. At Westminster School, where past pupils include Dido, Shane MacGowan and Lord Lloyd Webber, he often took lead roles in productions. He was acclaimed as "outstanding" in Benjamin Britten's opera Curlew River in 2001 and then, just months later, his performance in Cabaret was described as "strongly sung and wittily acted". He also used his "huge voice" to full effect by fronting a jazz band. At the posh public school - where he was known as Mica - he founded irreverent magazine Pink but was soon ousted by young readers who found it "dull and lacking that vital spark". Now using a "k" Mika capitalised on his classical training to compose jingles for adverts, including British Airways. BUT at 19, he decided to knuckle down and enrolled in a geography degree course at the London School of Economics. "I thought, 'I'm a nutcase. What am I doing thinking I can write funny little songs for a living?'" His bid to conform was shortlived and he quit on the first morning of term ever more convinced that music would be his vocation. The handsome lad had many doors slammed in his face before finally securing a deal. And Grace Kelly gives a lyrical two-fingered salute to all the executives who tried to mould him into the new Craig David. "Should I look older, just to be left on the shelf?" he trills. Despite Mika's coyness about his sexuality, the gay press has hailed the chart-topper as one of their own. And he's equally mysterious on the subject of his childhood as the son of a millionaire businessman. The biography on his official website notes: "When his father was subsequently taken hostage and held at the American embassy in Kuwait the family eventually settled in London." But when the Daily Mirror contacted the US Embassy in Kuwait a spokesman told us: "No one seems to have any such recollection. I have asked people who have worked here for more than 20 years and no one has heard of this." These days, visitors can't miss Mika's plush flat, below his parents' £3million townhouse in London's South Kensington because he has painted the door and railings pink. But no one should expect to be invited in for a cuppa anytime soon. The singer is obsessive about how his tea is made. "You've got to have a precise level of water in the pot and make sure the cup is in exactly the right place," he says. But for all his eccentricity, Mika is incredibly savvy. He has set up his own company, Dodgy Holiday Tours, which is apparently connected with an Irish accountancy firm that counts Noel Gallagher among its clients. And so it seems that his refusal to fit in - that once caused him to be friendless and isolated - now makes him the perfect celebrity. At last, being an oddball is finally paying off for Mika.

I think that Mika is the first of my obsessions. ...and probably the BEST for ever!!!

yeah, somebody please record it so we all will look and psych

Her in Latvia (in local radio) Mika`s Grace Kelly is THE 1ST!!! and Relax is 6th as far as i can understand - Latvian likes Mika a lot! ...so do I...

Hi! yes, it`s a little bit starnge... By the way - I`m from Latvia, so in general, we are neighbours

I`m a night person, totaly!!! But in the summer I love all 24 hours ...but if I would got a chance to meet Mika, for an example, at 3 AM, I definitely could get up even at 1 o`clock!!!

Mika in that kind of show??? NOOOOO!!!! I think peoples won`t even get the point of his song... no really, cause the biggest part of peoples are so obsessed with the stereotypes all around us (in music for an example). Mika MUST be different! He is! We all know that don`t we? ..cause that`s the reason why we love Mika sooo much

I JUST LOVE MIKA`S BRACES!!! i`ll definitely buy some, but nobody on the planet could look SO sweet and sexy and starnge and handsome like our MIKA with his colourful braces, am i right?

It`s the greatest idea i`ve heard Sivan! I know you will be brave enough to give it to MIKA ! ...what`s the latest date i can send my letter to you? i want to write a good one so i will need a little bit of time, so i want to know how much i can hesitate.

OH MY GOD! ..no Oh MIKA!!! ...I tried a little Mika, I`ve got identity MAD!!! I want to see him SOOOOO much! In april he`ll be in Denmark(06.04.) and in Sweden(07.04.) ..I live in Latvia, it`s allmost between these two countries, so.. Mika will be above my head (flying in airplain) but he won`t be in my country! I`m so sad!... but anyway, you`re one lucky family, I`m happy for you! =)

Hi and welcome! I hope you`ll enjoy everything that we and MIKA gives to you!
