Magic Mika

Pop star talks new album, coming out and stripping down to his underwear

Celebrity Interview by Chris Azzopardi

From November 2012 (Page 32)

 

After years of speculation, Mika has finally confirmed it: He’s gay. Totally queer. One-hundred percent into men.

 

Now, moving on: The British performer’s third album, The Origin of Love, is Mika’s most self-reflective work, from opening up about his sexuality to the ebb and flow of love and the bullies that he fended off as a child. He even looks more GQ than Toys R Us kid these days.

 

Mika caught up with us to chat about whether he’s over talking about being gay (he’s not), his female alter egos and how tight jeans help with the high notes.

 

GC: So, you’re gay. Are you sick of talking about that yet?

 

M: (Laughs) The question before was, "Are you gay?" Now the question everywhere I go is, "What’s it like being a 29-year-old who’s gay?" It never irritated me, and it’s never something that has bothered me, so I’m not sick of it. It’s not essential to understanding my music, but I guess if you want to understand me as a real person – as a person with facets and different angles – then it is important. So no, I’m all right with it, and I’m still answering those questions. It certainly didn’t make them go away. If anything it’s becoming even more a theme for conversation in interviews.

 

GC: How do you respond to people when they ask you what it’s like to be gay?

 

M: I’m like, "What do you want me to say to that?" There are so many inappropriate things I could answer back. (Laughs) I’m like, "It’s not a color of a jacket that I chose that day." It’s how I’ve always been programmed. It’s my brain. It’s part of who I am. I don’t really know how to answer that. I’m like, "Well, what’s it like for you to have brown hair?"

 

GC: Do you think the public is too concerned about celebrities’ personal lives?

i read it before also... but still... Calgary? :aah:

 

Maybe it's just a chain of city magazines. Like GayNewYork, GayToronto, etc. and it was first published by one of the others. :dunno:

 

Besides every gay man knows who Mika is, even the ones in Calgary I would think. :roftl:
