MIKA is everywhere on the blogosphere. And he should be. I first heard about him in October and now I can't stop listening to him.
It has been said that "Mika is what you would get if you took the Scissor Sisters and made them into one person" and "If Rufus made you sigh, and Jake made you dance, Mika is gonna make you squeal!" I couldn't agree more. Other influences include Freddie Mercury, George Michael, Elton John, Prince...do you get the gist? Gay gay gay.
Check out his piano rendition of "Grace Kelly":
MIKA's debut album "Life in Cartoon Motion" will be released in the UK on February 5 and on March 27 in the US -- right now, you can get the song "Love Today" at the US iTunes:
MIKA is 23, from Lebanon (raised in France and the UK), and yes, he is a gay homosexual. Go gays!
I have been following his progress at Arjan's blog (where you can check out two recent videos from MIKA here and here). More info on MIKA at Hunk du Jour, Queerty, MIKAsounds, gay.com, wiki, and his myspace page.
Yeah! Go littlemissconcieted! He's not gay!

Oh drat, I really do hope he isn't gay. I have a crush on him and that just ruins all plans of seducing Mika. Haha!

Hey Craig, I got that from around the web. A few places say he refuses to confirm whether he is gay, so he may be a bit in the closet.
Gay.com UK had this to say: "I can tell you that he’s a bit lanky, a bit clowny, definitely a bit gay, and unapologetically joyful."

Thanks for the visit!

How do you know he is definitely gay?

Thanks for posting that clip.
I wasn't quite sure if his name was proncounced Mee-Kah or My-Kah.
Now I know.
