Anna Ko Kolkowska

I am not sure if the background voice is someone singing in the room or it's juste the male chorus from the original song.

Exactly. I thought the same

Just a few seconds with Mika VID_20220212_184233054.mp4

"Nikos Aliagas a accepté de nous livrer pour la première fois son histoire : depuis l'arrivée de ses parents immigrés grecs en France, son enfance, ses débuts à la télévision, ses succès, les doutes qui l'ont parfois traversé, les choix qu'il a dû faire mais aussi son rapport viscéral à la terre de ses ancêtres, cette double culture franco-grecque qui l'a façonné et dont il est fier et sa passion pour la photographie. De la France à la Grèce, des coulisses de ses émissions cultes à ses moments intimes, grâce à des images inédites et exclusives, découvrez 'Nikos en vrai' tel que vous ne l'avez jamais vu !", a ajouté la première chaîne. Jenifer, Patrick Fiori, Zazie, Florent Pagny, Jean Paul Gaultier, Arthur, Christine Bravo, Jean-Paul Rouve, Thomas Sotto, Stéphane Bern, Soprano, Mika, ou bien encore Marc Lavoine, ont tous accepté de témoigner au sein de ce documentaire, dont la narration est assurée par la présentatrice météo de TF1 : Tatiana Silva. English translation: "Nikos Aliagas has agreed to tell us his story for the first time: since the arrival of his Greek immigrant parents in France, his childhood, his debut on television, his successes, the doubts that sometimes crossed him, the choices he had to do but also his visceral relationship to the land of his ancestors, this dual Franco-Greek culture that shaped him and of which he is proud and his passion for photography. from his cult shows to his intimate moments, thanks to new and exclusive images, discover 'Nikos in real life' as you have never seen him!", added the first channel. Jenifer, Patrick Fiori, Zazie, Florent Pagny, Jean Paul Gaultier, Arthur, Christine Bravo, Jean-Paul Rouve, Thomas Sotto, Stéphane Bern, Soprano, Mika, or even Marc Lavoine, have all agreed to testify in this documentary , narrated by TF1 weather presenter Tatiana Silva."

Yes it's Mika's studio in Italy. The guy may be the young man from the previous story (with Amy the Owl and Harry Pottterrrr ) The same watch on the wrist? He was speaking French, so I suppose he is French.

It's 3 hours of music "Une carte postale de Laroie" with a "view on Mika". I am listening to the program so for the moment I don't know how much time is dedicated for Mika. https://ici.radio-canada.ca/ohdio/musique/emissions/5123/leffetpogonat EDIT: I found the playlist of this program. One Mika song. 11 h 13 Titre : GRACE KELLY Interprète(s) : MIKA Album : MIKA: LIFE IN CARTOON MOTION Compositeur(s) : DAN WARNER, MIKA, JODI MARR, JOHN MERCHANT Maison de disque : UNIVERSAL

Yes, as mentioned @Prisca it's illegal for everyone. There are big surrogacy clinics in Ukraine. As well in India. Used to be in Vietnam. Usually women from these countries "sell" their bodies for living. For single men and homosexual couples in France (well, maybe in other countries as well) adoption is quasi impossible. So if they want to have children they have to go to USA or Canada or Ukraine. It's a long process and it costs a lot of money. You have to pay for all medical care and usually the surrogate stops working and has to take care of herself, so the future parents pay all costs/charges for her. As it was said yesterday in the debate for ex. un USA there are many surrogates who are Christians and they just want to help others to have babies - it's not about the money. More than 50% of future parents are gay couples. The other rest are heterosexual couples with fertility or medical problems.

I don't know much about the surrogate pregnancy and my vocabulary on this subject is poor. So I will not go too deep into it. In most of European countries - like in France - this program is illegal. Some of you know that Marc-Olivier is Mika's friend for many years. He is gay and lives with his husband Francois. They have two daughters born in USA thanks to a surrogate program which is legal in certains states. In his book he tells his own story but as well stories of several couples - hetero and homosexual. He didn't write it for himself but for all there families and for those who are looking the way to become parent. Yesterday Mika was watching on France 2 a movie based on Marc-Oliveir's book. As we had our Insta Live I was able to watch only the second part. It was telling two stories: one - based on Marc-Olivier and Francois case - names were changed, the surrogate program was in Kanada not USA. The second story was about a couple which couldn't have their own children and they decided as well to take a chance in a surrogate program. From the book and from the movie we can learn about problems people have to overcome. We can see how they struggle with the system, with the law, but as well with their own psychological ups and downs while going through long months/years of the battle. When I read the book in 2018 I thought that it can be a milestone in the process of changes. And I think I was right. Now we have a movie followed by a debate in the TV studio with a heterosexual woman, a gay who made the same way as Marc-Olivier, a grandmother of surrogate pregnancy twins, an anthropologist and a woman - deputy in the french government. The conversation showed this big imbalance between point of view of the citizens wanting to have children and the government which tries first of all not allow the commercialisation of human body and children trade.

Moi, par exemple

I will write more tomorrow. It's late now. Today just two photos of Marc-Olivier Fogiel's book. And his thank you to Mika. The movie was based on his book "Qu'est ce qu'elle a ma famille ?" Which can be translated as "What problem do you have with my family?". Or in a different way "We have a normal family".

I think that he stays in fancy hotels while traveling in business. He has so many friends and family members in Paris that he doesn't need to spend money on Crillon hotel - one of the most expensive in Paris.

Mika wears more and more brown, brownish, ecru colors. I like it Camel related????

No no no. He isn't anymore in Toscany. He is in PARIS !!! YouCut_20220208_181329800.mp4

Yes, it doesn't sound very Mika-ish

Oh, so I am not alone. I didn't click on the link either. Just in case. I don't need any invoice (for the moment )

The video with the song. YouCut_20220208_172339969.mp4

Yes, I received it as well. Even checked if it's not a scam because not any email before. My e-tickets were sent in a separate email. I can see them as well in the TicketOne app.

You have forgotten: talking to camel, haven't you?

On TicketOne they mention as well the 12 February as the latest date of announcement. But not the date of sale opening.

@BigChiara96 If not the open sale starts tomorrow as well on Ticketmaster.it

There is only one king. Mika 🤣🤣🤣😕

I hope you will survive and we will meet in Firenze

Looks like she is in UK. But maybe she is there only for one concert and will be back to Florence?

Thank you. If necessary the next time I will use option "Stampa@casa".
