umm...that would make sense...they've been seen out and about...

Yeah, I didn't think so before, but she is always with him (radio shows, filmings, after parties, etc) more than any other mascot, and he always wants people to meet her and see how cute she is, etc.

--Jack

After seeing that video, I actually do think that maybe they're dating.

This site has a ton of great screencaps in the gallery.

*HAHA*

THATS REALLY STRANGE!!!

 

WOW!!! :biggrin2:

i didnt know MIKA was a vegetarian...IM ONE!!! :thumb_yello:

well i have been for 6 years now and all my friends are too!!

 

But im pretty sure i read somewhere that MIKA relaxes by eating a bucket of chicken nugets!!??

 

He's not a vegetarian, he just doesn't eat beef. :-)

How DID he guess that it was Mika's?

JackViolet-> I dunno. I have this fascination with the whole otaku subculture, i guess. And knowing that Mika spent a few hundred pounds for a japanese robot (maybe Gundam or Evangelion or other Mecha) kinda makes him an otaku in my book

 

I know that most japanese think being called an otaku is an insult but I think that otakus are misrepresentated sometimes. Like me I call myself MIKA otaku and L'Arc~en~Ciel otaku and I call Mika an otaku not in an insultive way but in the most endearing way

 

One thing that I kinda get from otakus are the fact that they don't really care about what people say about them, no matter how weird people think they are. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's our Mika right there

Oh, I didn't think you were trying to insult him--I was rather a bit of an anime otaku myself back in highschool days (I did cosplay! and I still have several thousand dollars' worth of now-totally useless anime vhs lying around), but I just think his interest in such things is likely more that of a casual/moderate fan with access to spending money than a trueblue otaku. :-)

Thanks Sou!

That was a rather smarmy interview voice though... I think by now I get a bit irritated when they really try to play his backstory up so much. I mean, yes, he was a talented kid and didn't have the usual upbringing, but his music is about the now. And they tend to be waaaay into painting him as something he isn't really, like they really want to make his childhood "weirder" than it was. (Like how they initially ran with the story of his dad being held hostage and kidnapped or whatever.) I'll be happy when these little profiles of him just mention that yes, he's had classical music training and experience, and then just move on from there.

Well, I did some surfing around the internet...seems like a good (albeit early) time to line up is 6 am or so... Though, we are MFC-ers, so I'm sure we'll all be there earlier.

Thanks for the research! I actually live in Jersey, so I guess I won't sleep much...

--Jack

Gosh, I bet you'll have to start queing at like, 5 am though... Well I will do it!!!

Wow, sold out? That means my sister won't come with me after all...

Hahah, but I guess that just means I'll be free to try and meet all you lovely people! I'd be worried about going to a show alone otherwise, but I'm sure I won't be alone!

--Jack

Wait what whoa?

Do you just show up? Man I will be there!

Whoa, thanks to this thread I went and looked up the Radio 1 podcasts with Mika, and goodness, they are hilarious! Mika's impression of Scott Mills is GREAT. I did not expect him to be that good.

Second link here, for anyone else who hasn't heard it yet.

It was posted already wasn't it? Hahah, everyone's so excited over this video! I'm happy that it comes out so soon.

--Jack

True, we all know that every important matter of the heart is really determined by compatible taste in chocolates!

Or maybe it's the other way around? After all, if you both like the same candy, you'd always be trying to steal it from the other one! Maybe Mika's looking for someone who absolutely loathes kitkats, so that he can always get them all!

--Jack

That whole day sounds so lovely, even if tiring!

(By the way, am I the only person who thought that they SHOULD have had diet coke and pizza for lunch?)

Did you go to Radio1 too, or was it someone else? I wonder if Mika recognizes you now. Actually, I wonder jemmalee, did he recognize you at the shoot? You have met him a few times before, haven't you?

--Jack

Kitkats the candy bar?

Very smart of him; they are delicious! (sadly not vegan, but still delicious.)

--Jack

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!

Well, I do have to admit... I probably wouldn't. I tend to see elephants in bonnets and leotards. A tutu? That really is a bit of plain crazy.

--Jack

Why do you think he's an otaku? We know he loves tamagotchis and toys, so he'll definitely have fun there, but an otaku specifically?

Oh man, I hope he visits Harajuku and Shinjuku and gets himself some fun new clothing there though... he would love some of the shoes they have (or so I imagine).

--Jack

Goodness, of course he is not drunk!

It's just the glasses! I mean, who WOULDN'T see an elephant in a tutu?

--Jack

Oh, that's the extracted Calvin Harris video, right?

Hahah, I knew there couldn't be a video I'd missed! I kept well up on my Mika stuff yesterday.

--Jack

Hahah, some friends of mine were in Central Park yesterday and they saw that porterpotty and took a photo of it for me (they know I am obsessed).

I replied that I'd already seen photos of it, thanks to you guys and the lighting-fast speed at which Mika news of any stripe get posted here. :-)

I think that the next batch of fanclub wear should have the slogan: "Mika Fan Club: We know more about Mika than Mika--and that's no joke!"

--Jack

Okay now, all the NYC Mikafans--you gotta get your photo taken there!

All right, so, yellow curtain, harem... what?

Is there some injoke about yellow harem curtains?

sorry, found!!! just thought the do-ya-see thingie was about the myspace pics only (the ones posted on last pages:bleh: )

...found what?

Wait, what do harems have to do with it?
