It seems like I've missed lots of posts. I'm not very active on Twitter and didn't know about the discussion. I'd like to say a few things as I'm France representative (and proud to play this role).
I'm glad to hear French fans are welcome here. I expected lots of them to join us because of The Voice. Unfortunately, they haven't Too insecure about their English? New members of the French forums only? Maybe a bit of both. (I agree with you, Guy (post 3068). I hope more French fans will join us!
Thanks for encouraging them to come here Melanie!
@Melanie @Rose: Antoine (Mikawebsite admin) and Ysa/Maggie (MikaFrance mods) are MFC members too and communication is ok between the 3 forums. Ysa and Antoine were really helpful and enabled lots of us to watch recordings of The Voice
Deb did try to get tickets to go to The Voice but she couldn't get any. A couple of tickets were available on Mika's FB. Deb did all her best I also appreciate all what the mods do for all of us here and would like to thank them.
I agree with 99 % of what Guylaine said (posts 3005 and 3048). Extreme behaviours make me freak out. The remaining 1% is about the private gig.
I wouldn't have gone to meet him at the private gig either but as it wasn't really a secret (he let the cat out of the bag), I don't blame anybody for having tried. If I were famous, I would be careful with what I say because if I tell my fans I'll be at an event, some of them would turn up to see me. (I think like Mellody (post 3011) and Treasa (post 3014))
Mika pie was a very good metaphor!
It took me a long time to read this thread, I've got to go now. My kids want their supper.
