Here's an example, I've just received a follow request from this account:
Doesn't use his profile pic or bio - that's good. But. It also doesn't tell us anything about the person behind the account. There's nothing personal. Could be a scam, could be a bot. Let's look closer. The account title. Why use "officiel"? To make people think it's officially connected to him? The bio text just states "MIKA" in capital letters, like his. Again, trying to make people think it is him? Let's check the account info. The account was created in March, but has 0 posts and just one follower. But is following 83 other accounts. That's suspicious. Finally the name of the account has been changed 4 times. That's a lot, especially if it was only created in March!
No, this account is throwing up too many warnings. There's not enough for me to definitely state it is scam, but it's possible. It could also be a bot. Either way, I don't trust it. R&B!

Had one last month who gave themselves away. They'd copied his official profile text: "Love music and Melachi and Amira".
Except they'd typed it all in lowercase, and misspelt Amira as "amari". 😏 Love a self-own like that. 😁 But don't point it out to them if you see mistakes like that, they're useful clues for others that it might be a fake account. Just report and block, and let them make the same telling mistake again.

never payed much attention since they are all usually insanely expensive )
That's WHY we should pay attention, so we know what to look for in the cheaper versions!

I'm always suspicious of so-called fan accounts that include his official profile picture. Or that say "fan account" but then copy his official profile and bio word for word. Why? Genuine fans are usually more imaginative, and include a unique picture or info. I suspect it's usually scammers pretending to be another fan, trying to build a following of victims for a mass scam attempt. Anytime you see anything that looks similar to, or reads like, his official profile, please be wary.

Hello,
I'm writing here because, some days ago, I have received on my Facebook this message.
I doubt this is Mika! Naturally I haven't replied. What do you think about it?
I Specific: In the message I have cancelled only my name on FB.
Anyway, on my Instagram too, I think someone that follow me has a fake profile. In the last time it's happening to me very often.There are many strange people that enjoy themselves in this manner evidently!

Yes, another scammer. Report and block.

I am getting a whatsapp number, and regular message, the artist speaking about his private life and he wants donation from fan urgently to replete his bank account, as he is in financial trouble, the number is +14252439076.
That is definitely a scammer. Report and block!

Wait what "smoking" moment? I haven't watched all of the battles, did I miss something??
But that's an interesting perspective and some good points you make, thanks!
Not sure if it was smoking, or smoke with extra emphasis on the e. 😅 It was his intro to the battle between Olema and Marie-Flamme.

True, why is literally everyone crying?!
Btw I've been meaning to ask... What do you all think of the current format of the battles?
I haven't watched The Voice in a long time and was really surprised by how different the battles feel now, especially with the coach's chair being on stage now. I found that really weird and while I enjoyed the blind auditions, I honestly couldn't get into it the battles at all. Would be curious is anyone else feels that way or if some of you like it this way and why?
It's an interesting angle to see the coach on stage with them. I guess being on stage puts them closer to the performance, so they might see things not apparent to the others. Also it seems to be comforting for the contestants to have them there as a (slightly) more active participant than just being judged, to me it's kind of reinforced the supportive element that the coaches play. And if the contestants get overwhelmed being watched by the judging audience and coaches, they can avert their gaze and sing to their coach instead. Of course that could play into their final decision, but it might relieve some stress knowing their coach is up there with them and they have that option.
Also, it gave us the "smoking" moment. 😍😄
The only thing I'm not keen on is the distracting whoops and yeahs from BF&O, and V to an extent. It's not your performance, shut up, sit down and listen! It's ok when they're sat in the chairs, but not on stage.

A teaser for the Cross - battles.

The Voice 2024 - Nouvelle étape samedi prochain, les cross-battles
Attention !
La semaine prochaine, on met le cap sur les cross-battles. Les coachs vont se provoquer en duel en opposant leurs talents.
La moitié des talents quittera la compétition.
Certains coachs pourraient perdre toutes leurs cross-battles et donc tous leurs talents.
The Voice 2024 – New stage next Saturday, the cross-battles
Attention !Next week, we're heading to cross-battles. The coaches will challenge each other to a duel by pitting their talents against each other.
Half of the talents will leave the competition.
Some coaches could lose all their cross-battles and therefore all their talents.
Hoo boy, they crammed all the emotions in that trailer!
So the cross battles are voted for by the studio audience? Do the non-playing coaches get a vote too?

I have no love for the RT, but it's an institution in Britain, that's great exposure! 😍

I'm still elated from the final duet, wasn't expecting that song but it was brilliant. ❤️❤️❤️

Ok, so obviously we're sworn to secrecy until it airs, but I can say, what a brilliant night, full of emotion. The finalists were all incredibly talented performers, and each one deserved to be there. You will not be disappointed!

So Mika has a cottage outside of Hastings! Is that where he is when he plays "30 Secondes" on the piano? Or when he's at the seaside with his dogs?
Yes, that all fits.

I don't know about deadly, but they're definitely dangerous! He's changed suit again! Love the shade of this one, the shoes and the brooch.

Oh, thank you Andrea. I couldn't find the Exchange Court on the Google Map - but it seems to be the name of the mall part.
That's right, it's an area inside the Arndale Mall. There's a map here:

I was checking yesterday on the Google maps where it is. I will try to find it. But it looks like it's a huge mall. I hope there will be some signs to find it 😜
It's here, the Exchange Court runs through both the Lower Mall and Upper Mall levels (basically ground floor and 1st floor). The ground floor is an open space, the upper area is enclosed.

Well, they got that wrong!
The final is in Manchester this year!
More than four stations too, wasn't it? They've just copy pasted the text from last time!

If they keep the same format, Mika and LL will each play a solo song at the start, then perform together at the end. The TV people won't want any risque lyrics, so that narrows the choice.
I could see GG as the finale, it has that uplifting group energy. But, who knows? I've learnt never to 2nd guess Mika.

Just seen today's Google Doodle in the UK is in remembrance of Etel Adnan, whose poetry Mika read for this installation.

From the UK, I'll probably travel down to Gatwick or Stansted for a cheap flight direct to Marseille, then get a train into Orange.
