Lizzie Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 These guys are credited on Mika's album as backing vocalists and they are all Pennimans so can anyone tell me what relation they are to the man himself. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairyFeller Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 well, I think he has a few brothers and sisters (not sure how many sisters)...so at least one of his sisters may have done backing vocals...as for the other ones...I dunno, if not sisters, cousins, maybe?

Cautionary Wife Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 According to the Sunday Herald, Mika has a brother Fortuné and three sisters Yasmine, Paloma and Allegra. Maybe Zuleika is his 8-year old cousin - unless they have made a mistake about Allegra? CW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pica_mica Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Zuleika is Allegra and Allegra is Zuleika. Simple because her name is Zuleika Allegra! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Zuleika is Allegra and Allegra is Zuleika. Simple because her name is Zuleika Allegra! My God this is old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelloKitty Lucy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Paloma is a strange name but is very poetical:actually,it's the spanish word for ''dove''. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sariflor Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Paloma is a strange name but is very poetical:actually,it's the spanish word for ''dove''. Paloma is a very common name in Spain, and yes, it does mean "dove" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelloKitty Lucy Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 is it common?I've asked girl but she said that's a little bit unusual... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 How are their names pronounced? I know how to pronounce Paloma and Yasmine, but is Zuleika pronounced like Zoo-lay-ka, and Fortune like For-tune-ay? Not that I'm ever going to need to speak their name, but I'm curious.

Hannah Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Mika actually got off easy with a 'normal' name like Michael! Yasmine, Paloma, Zuleika, Fortune and... Michael. If that's not middle child syndrome I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAK1 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Yasmine, Paloma, Zuleika, Fortune and... Michael. If that's not middle child syndrome I don't know what is. In an interview I watched recently, he said that his dad wanted to call him Michael, but his mum didn't like the whole junior thing so he is called Mica. Wouldn't like to try calling him Michael, he may get a bit tetchy about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LebAngel Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Yasmine, Paloma, Zuleika, Fortune and... Michael.

Hannah Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I hate having a 'normal' name Me too. My name can be spelled the same way frontwards and backwards, though, so I guess that's cool. It makes me laugh how, though I've had this name for 18 years, people still insist on pointing out the fact that my name is a palindrome, as if I hadn't noticed. My children are going to have very unique names. I've already picked them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anto Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Paloma is a strange name but is very poetical:actually,it's the spanish word for ''dove''. The name of my cousin is Paloma but I don't like it cuz in spanish (the language of my country) is dove yes and the little kids in the school to be a nuisance for her! and her nick name is "Palo" , in my country it means "Stick" in english. It's normal for me, bah in Argentina it is. All the names of my brothers and sisters can be strangers to you my name is Antonella and my sisters name are: Agustina, Belen, Natalia and my brother Gustavo.
