Hi guys, can anyone help me find where is this gif from? Please!

 

 

Sorry, I can't remember the scene.... hopefully @kreacher will help.

[Hero]

Was that in his London house? 

Maybe an old story?

I found the same gif posted on tumblr which used the hashtags #thevoice6 #ep4

 

( @Hero the tumblr post also said #londontoparis so you could be right about the London house)

 

I'm assuming then that the gif is from Series 6 episode 4 of The Voice France from 2017 when Mika was a judge. I can't find a full episode anywhere and I'm not sure if MFC ever saved episodes of The Voice 

 

Did anyone happen to save clips or episodes from that year?

Yes, I think it was a short documentary when Mika was waiting for a taxi in London to go to St Pancras train station to go to Paris. But I can't find it.

It's from the Voice Season 6, Episode 4, as others have said. It's from the extra, behind-the-scenes bit.

 

Eriko has it on her VK account here: https://vk.com/video232312753_456239475

 

It's about 1:30 into the video.

 

I don't see it anywhere else on youtube, etc.

I don't use VK anymore. It's a Russian platform and they ask now some additional identifications,

which I don't want to give them

Oh no, what are they asking for now, besides phone number?

I don't remember now. I tried to connect once a few weeks ago. Usually the login was automatic.

But now I don't want to give them even my phone number. I don't trust them anymore.

Hmm, they still just asked for phone number or email from me. I don't think I realized it was Russian, I just assumed it was Japanese or Asian, I guess because Eriko is using it. Now you've made me rethink...

From wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VK_(service)

 

 

Ownership[edit]

Initially, founder and CEO Pavel Durov owned 20% of shares (although he had majority voting power through proxy votes), and a trio of Russian-Israeli investors Yitzchak Mirilashvili, his father Mikhael Mirilashvili's and Lev Leviev[26] owned 60%, 10%, and 10% respectively.[27] The original founders then sold a stake of 39.99% to Mail.ru Group (formerly Digital Sky Technologies).[28][29]

On 29 May 2012, Mail.ru Group announced its decision to yield control of the company to Durov by offering him the voting rights on its shares. Combined with Durov's personal 12% stake, this gave him 52% of the votes.[30][31]

In April 2013, the Mirilashvili family sold its 40% share in VK to United Capital Partners for $1.12 billion,[32][33] while Lev Leviev sold his 8% share in the same deal, giving United Capital Partners 48% ownership. In January 2014, VK's founder Pavel Durov sold his 12% stake in the company to Ivan Tavrin, the CEO of MegaFon, which is controlled by Alisher Usmanov. Following the deal, Usmanov and his allies controlled around 52% of the company.[34] Shortly thereafter, the CEO of Megafon, sold his 12% stake to Mail.ru, thus allowing Mail.ru to consolidate its controlling stake of 52% in VK.[35]

On 1 April 2014, Durov submitted his resignation to the board; at first, due to the fact the company confirmed he had resigned, it was believed to be related to the Russo-Ukrainian War which began in the previous February.[36] However, Durov himself claimed it was an April Fool's Joke on 3 April 2014.[37] On 21 April 2014, Durov was dismissed as CEO, claiming he failed to withdraw his letter of resignation a month earlier.[38][39] Durov then claimed the company had been effectively taken over by Vladimir Putin's political faction,[38][40] suggesting his dismissal was the result of both his refusal to hand over personal details of users to federal law enforcement and his refusal to hand over the personal details of people who were members of a VKontakte group dedicated to the Euromaidan protest movement.[38][40] Durov then left Russia and stated that he had "no plans to go back"[40] and that "the country is incompatible with Internet business at the moment".[39]

On 16 September 2014, the Mail.ru group bought the remaining 48% stake of VK from United Capital Partners (UCP)[41] for $1.5 billion,[41] thus becoming the sole proprietor of the social network.[42]

In December 2021, Russian state-owned bank Gazprombank and insurance company Sogaz bought out 57.3% of VK shares, thus becoming the holders of the company's controlling interest.[43][44]

Definitely VK is the Russian platform.

I remember this one in English.

Heat magazine  2009

 

"I added £2,000 of my own money to the promotional budget to put the posters everywhere so the heartbreaker could not escape. I gave money to hammer them in one particular neighbourhood in London."

 

Thread about the original article in MFC.

Text of the interview on twitter.

I read it in a German interview recently. This one:

https://www.laut.de/Mika/Interviews/Lieber-albern-als-einfach-nur-schoen-17-09-2009-642

 

They're talking about being in love and heartbreak and he's being asked to elaborate. He says
"It happened when I had just released my first album. You know what I did then? (grins) I took 2000 pounds of the money the record company had given me. I used it to print extra posters of my album. Then I stuck them on every possible surface around the house of that person (laughs). I always do stuff like that."

 

I haven't seen a video of him talking about it unfortunately!

I'm looking for that iconic picture of Mika at Disneyland pride this year where he has the rainbow wings on and both arms in the air and he looks so happy looking at the audience. I know a lot of people did fanart of that picture too but I can't find it! 

 

Anyone have it? 😊

You can see it on YouTube but you would have to screencap it

Wasn't it one he reposted in his stories? Then maybe it's in the Mika updates thread?
