This is the problem isn't it! If more people had been aware of him, the way we are, because we see him on YouTube doing concerts and interviews, I think he might have won. If you didn't see the interview on 'the red carpet', I'll tell you that Mika said he'd been in bed for two days and only got up for the event. So he gave a brilliant performance, after having to rest for two days, to gain some energy. Yet no one on British TV have even mentioned him today. They mentioned all the other performers, but not Mika! It's an absolute disgrace! Love today, from Marilyn

There's a thread about Mika in The Sun, on the forum (entertainment section) I know, because I started it! I was watching TV this morning, and the EMA awards were mentioned on The News, and Entertainment Today. They talked about the people who performed, or won awards But was Mika even mentioned? Of course not! What can we expect from a British media who are more interested in a woman who is too drunk to sing, than a magical guy, who gives everything in his performances. The plain fact is, that if the media had given Mika more attention, he would have probably got more votes and might have won the awards, as he so deserved to do. The fact is... Mika had been in bed for two days before the awards, to gain back his strength for his performance last night. The man is killing himself performing live gigs night after night, and our media are not supporting him by mentioning his work. I believe that Happy Endings might have risen higher in the charts if it had been mentioned, and the video played, on shows like Entertainment Today, and I think it is a disgrace that no one even mentiones him, after all his hard work So I've started a thread in The Sun 'Why Are Our Media Ignoring Mika?' Like I said in a previous thread here, it's not about making Mika do more than he's doing. It's actually, about helping him to get more exposure, without him having to slog his guts out to get it. When Mika first came along, he was hailed as the next big thing. Other countries medias show his concerts, and videos, very often. Only Britain is lagging behind. If you want to have your say in 'The Sun', just go onto the website http://www.thesun.co.uk You go onto the entertainment section. You may have to register with them but it's very simple. Let's tell the media to get with Mika. Love today, from Marilyn

I've posted this piece of news on all threads about the event. It will only be of interest to his fans. No one else would care about it. I was able to see an interview with Mika on the red carpet. I got very upset, because when the interviewer asked him what he'd been doing in Munich, he replied that he'd actually been in bed for two days and only got up to come to the event. Of course, it didn't register with the interviewer that Mika is exhausted and has probably been ill. He only wanted to know who Mika had been in bed with! Mika, bless his heart, replied "sadly, by myself". He gave a fantastic performance! It is certainly not his fault that all of the attention this morning is on 'The Wino', and her lack of a speech! I don't understand why so many other performers voted for her! Oh... perhaps I can.... It's called 'the sympathy vote. Mika deserved to win those two awards! Still, we must move forward. But I hpe Mika slows down this crippling pace he's set himself, before he becomes really ill. Love today, from Marilyn

A lot of fans will not have seen Mika being interviewed on the 'red carpet' I did, and I got upset, because Mika said he'd been in bed for two days and only got up to come to the event. This told me that he's been either, exhausted, or ill. of course the idiot interviewer wanted to know who he'd been in bed with, and, of course, he answered "sadly, by myself". Mika performed brilliantly! More so, because he obviously hasn't been well. Love today, from Marilyn

Mika did fantastic, and I also saw him being interviewed on the 'Red Carpet', and I must say, I was worried. Why was I worried, you ask? Because Mika said he'd been in bed for two days and only got up to come to the event! Of course the interviewer asked who he'd been in bed with (cheeky sod) To which, Mika answered, "Sadly, by myself". This told me that Mika has been ill! He's been overdoing things with all these concerts. He really deserved to win the awards, but still, he gave a fantastic performance. Yet the only thing the media are interested in this morning, is 'The Wino', whom many other performers voted for (it's called the sympathy vote folks) and who couldn't even be bothered to give a speech. Never mind Mika! No one can survive on sympathy for long. One day the other performers will have to vote for you!! Love today, from Marilyn

Update on the NEW Spanish poll. Mika is up to 4%. Please keep voting. Love today, from Marilyn

Yes, I hope someone is trying to help Mika. His record company should be trying to promote him, no other singer-and-songwriter has to do it all himself, like Mika seems to have to do! Yes, I hope he gets nominated because he's the best there is today, and probably the best there's ever been!!! Love today, from Marilyn

What is this ban-thing!? Who would ban our Mika!!!!? He's done nothing wrong, he's a sweetheart! What's going on???????? Love today, from Marilyn

God bless Mika, today, and always!!! I hope he got the chance to have a good night's sleep last night, and is fighting-fit for his performance tonight! Whatever happens in the awards, his performance is sure to be spectacular. I'm going to be so nervous tonight, and I hope that Mika has a happy ending and brings home the two awards. Love today, and we are going to love tonight, from Marilyn

I'm not kidding. This is a new poll! It's the Spanish Sofeminine and, like the UK, Mika has started very low. He started at 1% and is now up to 3%. The link is here on the previous page. Please get voting and help Mika to conquer Europe with his sexiness!!! Love today, and may there be a happy ending tonight!!! From Marilyn

Update on the new site!! Depp 36%, Mika 3%!! Keep voting everyone. Love tonight, from Marilyn

Oh yes Happy Halloween to you too Alice, and to everyone else. I've been forgetting what day it is, because I'm so focussed on tomorrow. As the song (not Mika's song) says... It's only a day away. Love today, from Marilyn

Okay... I believe that Mika is very open and honest in his interviews. Yes, he keeps part of his life private, but that is his right. I actually think he's way more honest than every other celebrity, and doesn't even like to be called a celebrity. He's like two people in a way. The one we see on stage, the performer, then the one who we see in interviews. The child-like man... The boy next door... Affectionate, vulnerable, compassionate. We love him (in whatever way we say we love him) because he IS all those things. He's got the whole world spinning in cartoon motion, and he is out there, promoting his message of love and tolerance. But I don't think Mika actually realises the impact he's having on people, and that's part of his charm as well. He is a very unique individual. In fact... I'll stick my neck out here and say... there's never been anyone quite like him before, and probably won't ever be again. So we are all going to have strong feelings for him and want him to do well. We wouldn't be human if we didn't love Mika!!!! Love today, from Marilyn

Great idea to send it to the Spanish thread! Does anyone know if there are any more of these around. We need to find them, so we can vote Mika into the lead on all sites. He's up to 48% on the French one, so I think we should aim to get him to a nice round figure of 50% before the end of the week. On the UK one he's on 36%, and that can rise as well. It will give us something to do while we wait for the awards tomorrow. God... I'm going to be in such a state!!! Love today, from Marilyn

I'm not sure how to vote in this. Or if we can. I think we need advice. Thanks for telling us about it. Hope he wins!!! Love today, from Marilyn

Mika is up to 2% on the new poll! Excellent start!! Love today, from Marilyn

Right! Bring it on!!! We'll get him there. I think the polls stay open all november at least. Like you say, we're not voting in the emas anymore, so we'll get him there. We need all the links. I've already added this new one to my favourites so I can keep voting!!!! Love today, from Marilyn

We don't hear that much about him in Britain either. Not as much as we should! He certainly doesn't get onto any shows in this country, and only one terrestrial channel ever airs his concerts. Usually in the middle of the night. British women are being denied a real treat! They don't get to actually SEE Mika! Love today, from Marilyn

Yes SATU, if Mika wins it's mainly down to you. You got us the multi-links that were so helpful. I kept hoping none of the other nominees fans had anyone a smart as you, and that we were the only ones voting on all the links. Thank you for a brilliant job. Love today, from Marilyn

I've looked through the lists and I can't find Mika's name anywhere. It's probably me, I'd loose my head if it wasn't fixed on. What is he possibly nominated for? Oh God, I really really hope he wins. Will we be able to vote, or is it decided by a committee? Love and hope today, from Marilyn

Mika is a very safe fantasy. In other words, we're not cheating on our spouses, or boyfriends, but there's this gorgeous guy who makes us feel great! The only thing I would say, is, keep Mika as your fantasy, but don't neglect your real life. It's possible to find someone special in your real life, I did! I have a wonderful husband whom I wouldn't swap, even for Mika, and the fact is, Mika is two months younger than my son, so if I met Mika, I'm likely to want to mother him, but I know that I'd not want to sleep with him. That would be too weird really. But Mika has done so much for the world of music, and so much for his fans. He's like the ultimate party host and we are all invited. That's why we love him! Love today, from Marilyn

I think we'll be his official fan club now, guys and girls! But he could never be prouder of us, than we are of him! Love today, from Marilyn

Those articles are lovely! Thanks for posting them! Yes Mika is seducing all the generations. At 53 years old, I never thought I'd be a fan of a pop star, but there you go. However, Mika is NOT just a pop star is he! He's everything more. He's bringing the whole world together under his multi-coloured banner. The guy is a true ambassador for love and harmony in this awful world and we all love him so much! Thank God for Mika!! Love today, from Marilyn

Does anyone think, like me, that Mika is doing too much!! How many gigs have they given him!!! It's not like he's like Westlife, who spend most of their time on stools, or just standing still. Mika works so hard. No wonder there's nothing of him. Call me maternal if you want. I am old enough to be his mum, and I think they are working him too hard!!!!!! Mika, if you read this, listen to your own lyrics. "Relax, take it easy", you have absolutely nothing to prove to us! We just want you with us for a long time, and we want you healthy. Love today, from Marilyn

That's flipping brilliant!!!! I will be able to see it live but many will not, and if it's on T4 it will not be on in the middle of the night! Many people will see it and see Mika perform! Channel 4 (bless their hearts) are the only channel at the moment, who give Mika any airtime. God bless you Channel 4! I can't wait until the rest of our stupid British media catch up and get with the Mikamania!!!! Love today, from Marilyn
