Kriszti Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 someone has posted this article on DMFC, thought i'd share : http://sz-magazin.sueddeutsche.de/texte/anzeigen/32857 a photo from mika and zuleika when they were kids, aww, how cute!! :wub2: i had so hoped he'd once "officially" show some pix from his childhood, and finally we got one, it says it's from 1987: the other pic in the article is this one: the article is published in the category "fashion", and mika talks about his childhood, and his style now (that he has none ). i'm afraid i don't have time right now to translate, am busy packing etc., but i'll post the google translation for you and if i have time later will adjust it so it sounds right. (or maybe there are other germans online who have time?) "You should not look different to attract attention, but because you really are different " The singer Mika about his pop-cultural heroes, priests and ordinary Lebanese classmates. The photo shows me and my little sister Zuleika. We were living in Paris. My mother made clothes for children who have been sold, for example in the Galeries Lafayette. In our home worked day and night Schneider. There was anarchy and chaos. I could design my own clothing. I prefer wearing short pants, ruffled shirts and fly about, as my older sisters. Directly below us lived Madame Mitterrand, the wife of French president. Every time he came into the apartment, we were trampling wildly around on the floor in order to annoy his bodyguards. A strong sense of fashion I never had. Even fashion magazines, I have never read, but rather with toy guns and played fireworks. To buy the idea of fashion in an expensive store, bored just like the fashion shows, took me to my mother if she had no babysitter for me. I sat nose-picking in the Dior show, and hoped it was soon over. I hated it. But the singers Nina Simone and I have loved Barbara. Both had short, black hair, black painted eyes, a classic, timeless look. And their music was incredibly happy to be sad. The two were my pop-culture heroines. Men, I found what style was concerned, far less interesting. The only one who really made an impression on me with his clothes, was the Lebanese priest, who came three times a week for us. When we moved to London, I was the outsider in school. The cool kids were very mean to me. I wanted to hide myself, I clung to the school uniform. One day we performed cabaret. I played a heroin-addicted, self-destructive, totally androgynous announcer and drove it to the extreme tip. From then on, they let me alone. I had gone so far that it had received the people with fear. A Goth or punk, I never was. One should not look different to attract attention, but only because it actually is different. Trends mean nothing to me and I did not have their own style. I had never and I will never have. I have clothes that I like, that's it. --- Mika, 26, Lebanese-American pop musician, was also with his latest single, "Rain will" land again a hit. Of 20 to 30 March, he is on tour in Germany.

lollipop_monkey Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Aww! No way! And, taking care of his baby sister at such a tender age. Too cute. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I find it telling that the first widdle picture of him that surfaces shows him snuggling with a family member. Aww.

I have a 4 yo, i know wot these creatures are able to do.... When she was born, my middle one (a boy) who turns 7 next week, was 3 at the time, and we caught him peeling her hair and she was yelling in the livingroom in her craddle, so we asked him what are you doing and why, and he said he heard us saying "Oh this hair babies are born with is supposed to come off" so he started the process sooner himself...

Axie Dentelle Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Such a cute pic, I love it It looks very much like him especially his nose I think But I'm a little bit surprised as I thought Mika was fat and wearing his hair long as a child... And I can't see any curls... Next time I wanna see a pic of baby Mika naked in his bath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika4Life13 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 me? I've never liked to read fashion magazines too Yeah but Mika seems into fashion, as am I.
