My Spanish knowledge is non-existent, thought it was good evening. Love seeing him playing board games with his family. He sometimes seems so out of this world, with his expensive clothes and helicopter flights, VIP friends and a shelf full of vitamin pills, that it can get hard to imagine him doing just normal things. Well ok we could discuss whether doing that at 1am is as relatable as it feels on the first look, or still rather the "wild night", as he wrote, but it's a start, lol! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Buenas noches" is actually good evening, but he wouldn't be the first person to get confused with "buenas tardes" and "buenas noches". 9 minutes ago, mellody said: Well ok we could discuss whether doing that at 1am is as relatable as it feels on the first look Wasn't it about 9 pm local time when he posted that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Google translate yes but maybe they also say it to say “good evening”? Or are we wrong to assume @Mikasister? 13 minutes ago, mellody said: Love seeing him playing board games with his family.

Well, if you break it down: - helicopter is a means of transportation to get from A to B; - clothes are just clothes. I’m happy he’s even dressed! He doesn’t seem to have them on all of the time, for example at -10 degrees C - and friends are just friends I guess, although it’s enjoyable to see he also likes the company of the more regular person, may it be family or not ….but we only see what he chooses to show us, so maybe he’s either more normal than we think, or more extravagant than we think 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miami is considered the "capital of Latin US" for its many bilingual corporations, banks, and media outlets that cater to international business. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_language_in_the_United_States Or what do you mean? I know. It surprises me because he never speaks spanish, that's all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikasister Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 We translate "tardes" as "afternoon" so Buenas tardes, Good afternoon. But I don't know Mika, maybe for him, "tardes" it means, "evening" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first story shows to me as 7 hours ago, the 2nd as 4 hours ago. So if I count from 1pm CET = 7am Miami time, the 2nd story is even later than I thought, at 3am. 😅 Whether we can trust Instagram with the times is a different question. 25 minutes ago, holdingyourdrink said: but we only see what he chooses to show us, so maybe he’s either more normal than we think, or more extravagant than we think that, however, is true. Also I suppose not everyone thinks the same. And not everyone wants to see the same - some might think that a popstar needs to be extravagant, others (like me) prefer if he's relatable... and I suppose he wants to be both, as he said on his last tour, that he can be the superhero on stage but also the guy you'd like to go have a beer with. Guess it might not always be easy to keep the balance between these 2 sides of him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instagram is weird. I just closed and reopened the app, to see if that makes a difference, and now it's the same for me, 12 and 9 hours. So that would mean ca. 8pm and 11pm Miami time. Guess 8pm could count as afternoon in Mika's world. And happy that this confirms my first impression of a relaxed and relatable games evening with his family. So, good that we discussed it. Well, but whatever, the way he's traveling around the world, what do local times mean anyway! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, he mirrored the 2nd video before posting, you can see it also from the background. Well observed! That way he not only showed his hoodie the right way round, for marketing the brand, but also showed us his other hand, so we know that nothing bad happened (yet) to his hands while he was near the fireworks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
