The first time I met Mika at Nokia Theatre, there was a lot of people, and I was just so unbelievably thrilled that he was standing in front of me. Once he got to me, he asked me my name, I said Jackie, blah blah, then all I kept saying was " thank you so much..thank you so so much." he handed me back my sign,smiled and said " thank you LOVE! "
I nearly died and went to heaven.
The second time I met him, it was very just like hey! old friends, even though he probably didn't remember me, I think a lot of people feel that way if they get the chance to meet him more than once. It was on GMA, in the audience I held up the picture caption scarpbook, and he looked out while on stage ( not while on air of course) and goes what's that? and I yelled " A book for you! " i don't remember what he said but i remember him saying, or hinting something about me giving it to him after. So after he got off stage, the secuirty guard I was tight with cleared the way, which to me honest, didn't do much, but it sounds pretty cool, right? haha. Anyways, for the one second he wasn't talking to anybody, I said, " Mika! I have a gift for you!" and he looked up and smiled, and took the book, opened it to the first page, saw the picture of borat giving thumbs up and a picture of himself giving thumps up, looks at me and goes BORAT?!?! it was hysterical, and something I'll never forget. After that he said thank you very much, and I asked for a really quick picture and he said, sure it'd have to be really quick, not many people got pictures with him that day. I said thank you again, and that was it. I went up to him 10 minutes later to get autographs for my friends which I felt kinda bad about, but it was deffinetly worth it.
