I think the journalist in question is making much more of the song than is appropriate-- it's a pop song, for god's sake!! And ya know what? It's a fun song, and it's an affirming song. It's refreshing to hear something praising women of the larger variety. People need to realize that it's OK to be superficial sometimes (especially in pop music!), not everything has to be about how beautiful we all are on the inside. It feels good to be complimented on the outside as well, no matter how big we are.
Ughh! This article pisses me off more than anything I've ever read. I honestly don't think Mika is the type of person who would mock anyone, he seems like a genuinely nice guy. GAhh! I'm so angry I don't know what to do!
