sonjalovestoday Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I have never heard him mention him. Perhaps a subject he likes to keep private. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKateisaKate Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 He's talked about his family somewhat, so I think it's alright to a certain extent. Pictures and things like that, really personal stuff would be unfair, IMO. http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6551 http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/outlook/news/story/2007/04/070420_mika_uk.shtml But as far as his father now, I don't know. He's talked about him in a few interviews. He wanted to name Mika after him (Michael Jr.) but Mrs. Penniman said "Over my dead body!" and went with Mika. That was in another interview somewhere. I know which one, I think, but I can't find it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kk448 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I have thought about this a few times - that many members of Mika's family have been spotted at various Mika concerts but never his dad, at least not that I can remember. Though, isn't he sorta in a high position at his job or something like that? Anyway, from what Mika has said about his dad is all I know. If Mika wants to share more, he will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has definately been at some of the concerts- I believe he was at Birmingham??? He was chatting with one of the MFCers whose car was broken into (sorry- it was too long ago now to remember names!)

Anyway, I just know that he's not really talked about as much as the other family members. By the way, my car has been broken into before....not fun.

Lolliepop_girl Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 He said "My mother's the boss." ROFL Mika O_O! My mum's the boss too! I read in an article that "his mother is a clothes designer and hes father an international banker" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I heard either at GMA or in an interview somewhere Mika mention that he lived in his parents basement. He said parent's plural so I am guessing his father is still around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Jennie- Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 He has definately been at some of the concerts- I believe he was at Birmingham??? He was chatting with one of the MFCers whose car was broken into (sorry- it was too long ago now to remember names!) Yep, his dad was in Birmingham. He was up in the balcony filming the whole thing and then walking around the family and friends bit we got into with his camcorder for a bit. I think Holy Johnny is the only one to really talk to him (It was his and Big Girls car that got broken into and he was helping them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sariflor Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 As far as I've heard, his parents are not divorced, but I do think that we shouldn't really talk about his dad or anyone else in the family who is not really making themselves a 'public person'..... If Mika wanted to give info about him, he would, so let's assume that if he's not speaking much about his dad it's because he doesn't really want people talking about him My opinion!

Sarina Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I think the same...maybe he doesn't want to talk about his father but I'm wondering why! We know that all his family except for his father follow him during his concerts and stuff...maybe his father is too busy with his job?? Another question, is Mika's family rich? I just learn reading here that Mika's father is an international banker.. I'm wonering that because must be expensive to make music and all things linked to this...(but maybe I'm wrong) He lives in parent's basement...cutie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babspanky Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I have also seen his father at a concert other than Birmingham. Are they rich? Depends how you define rich, but in my book, most certainly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarina Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 sorry...my bad english...I meant if they were rich before Mika's success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babspanky Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Oh yes, he only started to be successful from February this year, I would be surprised if much of that money has even filtered through yet. And there is nothing wrong at all with your English! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
