BBC Breakfast 13/05/2022 BBC iPlayer - Breakfast - 13/05/2022 „It was written all over my face that I like the guy“ 🤣 Mika’s body language can’t lie, just like his reaction to the participant who budged into him, Ale and Laura presenting (and reading along from the teleprompter…), he can’t hide his emotion here. He‘s an open book, I really like that about him. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what's the point in writing a long article about an accident happened 12 years ago? Clickbait system? Horrible!

Yes, that's too much. As if no other announcer ever made a mistake ever. I'll bet Graham Norton has made a fair few. I can understand what happened with the Holland/Poland mix-up -- he was probably just reading the TeleprompTer and misread the name. In the moment, it's understandable that you're just operating on auto-pilot. They're also making a big deal of the fact that he pulled the microphone back from Ukraine -- as if he wouldn't let them talk. It was clear from the way he acted that someone talking in his ear told him there wasn't time. And then of course, there are those who are making a lot of the fact that he "mimed" or lip-synched. I had no idea there were so many perfect people in the world. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea there were so many perfect people in the world. The 850 + reactions to Mika's performance here ( Eurovision Song Contest) are overwhelmingly positive (jjust a few negative at the very end). I also found explanations of what might have been done for the Grand Final. Check out the screenshots. Edited May 16, 2022 by SusanT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the noise around him maybe he did not hear well. Because the name of the country is Netherlands not Holland. So on the prompter it would have been Netherlands - hard to make a mistake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen 2-3 comments by Ukrainians about Mika taking of the microphone from Kaloush lead singer. I haven't seen it on live. Mika even was not next to him.I didn't find it on the video on YouTube. So I decided not to concentrate on trolls spreading bad comments about 2 seconds of the program which maybe even did not take place.

I agree with this, it couldn’t have been written „Holland“ on the prompter (trivial fact: Holland is only part of the Netherlands, to be specific only 2 provinces of a total of 12 ) so it must’ve been through his ear. The excitement was high and the time was very very short. He handled it great with his dazzling smile and charm. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also very confusing, because one part of the band didn’t respond to Mika handing him the mic and then the one who did want to talk was too far away and responded when time was almost up. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end I saved Yo-Yo song as well. Maybe a premier in UK ? Mika is talking about his medley including Yo-Yo and an action with the whole audience. Mika at BBC2 2022-05-13 12.12.32.mp3 6.76 MB · 0 downloads The original replay is here, Mika from 1:41 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0016ys3 - available for 12 more days. Oh wow, they even did each show 5 times! I thought the 3 times with audience were already a lot, but 5, wow. That's 15 shows between Monday and Saturday. No surprise then that he didn't sleep much, I guess he might not even had time to party. Maybe that's why he's so quiet now, he's just sleeping for 2 weeks.

Kumazzz Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Culture Fix UK https://www.culturefix.co.uk/?p=22273 MIKA Returns With Brand New Single ‘Yo Yo’ Amidst Eurovision Song Contest Hosting Duties – Drops Official Video By Culture Fix / May 14, 2022 You have to hand it to Mika for adding even more to his plate this week. As well as taking on hosting duties of the Eurovision Song Contest in Turin, he also delivers a slice of new music with single Yo Yo. The track evokes Mika’s classic releases, brimming with a sense of optimism whilst playing with slinky club friendly sounds. Produced by Mika, Renaud Rebillaud and Alex Stacey, Yo Yo is penned by Mika, Wayne Hector and Renaud. Mika shares: “I wanted to write a song that could make you cry and dance at the same time. A song to make the world, in all its harshness, feel better. Something that will always be there to comfort you. I wrote this for you, as you listen in your room, or in a club: it doesn’t matter it’s just about you.” Mika is set to perform during the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest. It is thought that Yo Yo might receive its first live performance as part of the singer’s interval number. Yo Yo is expected to be the first taste of Mika’s upcoming new studio album.
