My hunny, One thing you have to understand aswell is I haven't seen Mika (I can't afford it 'cos I am at home on benifits with an illness :-() But Mika isn't here for the short term. We (You) will always have plenty of time to see him again! And when you do you'll wonder why you were so upset over missing him that one time.

Awww sweetie This is sad..But! Fear not for you will see loads and loads of other awesome bands. Sometimes everyone gets so wrapped up in Mika they forget about the other amazing bands and artists. And you have to think like this, what would Mika do?! I mean honestly if Mika had tickets for a festival and his favourite artist cancelled would he be devestated and not go! Sure as hell not! He'd grab his most colourful outfit and go and have fun! You do that! You go and be a Mika and show off and have a fantastic time...it would make him proud.

He is touring loads and yes I do feel like he may be overworking. The thing that interests me is everyone says he overworks yet after a 2 hour concert people still wait for him for autographs and pictures and whatnot. I'm sure if he didn't like it he wouldn't do it. But it always interests me that we get worried about his workload when we add to it.

Haha! Well thank you for supplying the content of my messed up dreams tonight. Can you imagine if it was like that, he gets on a plane followed by about 300 zombie like fans!

I haven't met him (or seen him live:shocked: ) at all! So you are not alone! God if Mika just spent a couple of days travelling around to meet us all just have a cup of tea and maybe sing us a song then we could all just relax and be happy forever haha! (My sister loves Earl Grey and I think we'd make him pancakes with chocolate spread on them instead of biscuits..not that I've thought about it or anything:biggrin2:!!)

well thats completely ridiculouse! I was so sure sara and akim would win! Or all you lovely people! Surely they would choose someone from the message boards! But on the bright side I feel as thought this thing helped me become somewhat of a member of the Mika community! so it's all good. :-)

Thank you for all the nice comments about our screentest, it is so much appreciated. Oh and we (all us Mika fans) will be told who will win next week !

Hello all, We are back, We travelled from Eastbourne to London it took about 4 and a half hours there and a bit longer back as dad's car is on it's last legs (we were trying to work out if it was the tyres, the brakes or the exhaust making the rattling noise all the way back home ) The (second) screen-test was great we were in there for about an hour and ten minutes. We got asked all the same questions but she also sneaked in a few more "what would you say to Mika if you met him?" etc. It was great fun, we talked until her camera run out of battery! I am convinced that she is my soulmate or something she is so awesome (she looks like Mika, anyone else think so?) At the end of the day whoever gets this deserves it, we are all awesome fans and I'm sure if they could they would invite us all 'cos lets face it. We rock! We love you all fellow Mika Fans:wub2:

Hi all, We (me and my sister) applied and I got a call from Arrianna today and were off to London on Thursday! She said 'They' want to meet us and whilst we're there we are going to have a second screentest. Now I'm not sure if we've been invited there because our first screentest was made at home and sent in on DVD or if we have a chance. But still all very exciting. I thought I'd fill you in. Oh and I mentioned about the e-mail problem and she says that she wasn't aware of it but she has been recieving e-mails.

Welcome Jackie, I can totally understand why a depressive chick would listen to Mika, I think his lyrics can be quite dark when you actually properly listen to them. I don't really know anything about The Cranberries, But you are welcome to send me a PM with some links and what have you's about them as I am always looking for new things to be obsessed with!. Aaaand Emoticons are awesome:thumb_yello:

Haha good point...But, I'm sure he prefers to be in the magazine's when his management has organised it not when fan's and people take pictures of him that he hasn't realised has been taken. It seems a bit intrusive. He is fantastic to his fans but it makes me wonder how much longer he will be if they're gonna try and make money off of him.

Do you all think Mika would like people making money out of his picture? I mean I'm not here to preach it just seems a bit...wrong.

What better thing to do than make money outta Mika! haha!

MIKA: 'MUSIC HELPED ME TO READ AND WRITE AGAIN' Pop star MIKA credits music for helping him to read and write again after a troubled childhood. The singer moved from a war-torn Beirut to London, England when he was a child, and his education soon began to suffer. The Grace Kelly hitmaker says, "A hard time at school early on in London led me to forget how to read and write. But music helped me." From Contactusic.com Can someone point out exactly where Mika said Music helped him read and write again? Haha gotta love 'journalists'. I know it's a small error but how long before Mika quotes are totally completely taken wrong. "I love Ice cream" will translate to Mika- "I have bought an island and I'm going to cover it in ice-cream so I will always be surrounded by my favourite thing of all time"

Hiya Siobhan, Welcome to the threads. It's great here, you're sure to love it. Great news about going to see Mika. You're very lucky!!!

Personally I believe, If this writer isn't a big girl then this article is total crap. How could this person speak up about whats offensive to bigger girls when they aren't one themselves. Unfortunately I think this is just a case of a 'journalist' (hah) saying things just to be different. I mean the UK press prettty much love Mika and this one obviously didn't want to go with the flow. And lastly am I the only one who thinks, if the writer wanted to know what Beth Ditto thought then he/she should have got an interview with Beth Ditto and asked. Aaand could it not be offensive that the writer has picked Beth ditto as the representative of all Bigger girls. It's not like were all in a union and need someone to speak for us. Haha.

Can someone tell me who the journalist is? I wonder if it's a 'big girl' it would be interesting to know wouldn't it.

I sent an e-mail last night asking what format they want the video in/on. As soon as they get back to me I'll post here.

John Cameron Mitchell is fantastically awesome! Jake Shears also loves Justin Bond who is equally as awesome (and was in Johns film Shortbus). Now the connection here is that Justin Bond actually had Grace kelly up as his song on myspace for a while. Bam!

Thats cute! Jake should take Mika on a date wouldn't that be sweet? It was Babydaddy who said the thing about Mika's music sounding similar. That was just a touch of jealousy as the sisters are huge in the uk and I think they just felt like they were being pushed out of their spotlight by Mika. Nothing a candle-lit dinner and a walk in a park won't solve. (Jake and Mika holding hands and the rest of their bands following with violins! awww)

Hi Veronica, welcome to the forum! You're sure to love it here.

Awww that was so cute. Thank you so much for doing that. You gotta love Mika cuteness!

Violet_sky I just have to say just how cute and funny I found this!. Me- "Well I've only watched Grace Kelly six times today and Love Today Twice" Mikafans- "aaand?" Me- ".....and a couple of interviews" Mikafans-"and what else?" Me-"Nothing else" Mikafans-Are you sure? Me- "Yep" Mikafans- "Absolutely?" Me- -Shouting- "Okay Okay, I spent 2 hours looking for new pictures of him aswell! And I read about 20 interviews, are you happy? Are you!!!!! And whilst I'm here can I thank everyone once again for being so nice! This really is like no other message board I know

Hi Liz , Welcome. I'm a newbie here aswell. I have got to say I love the way you write. Your words just seem to flow so poetically. I look forward to seeing you around the board.
