greta Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/playlist/view/27872/Mika-s-a-homeboy/?printer=1 FOLKS, don’t ever go mistaking Mika’s nationality. The wild-haired Londoner was introduced as an American/Lebanese singer when he collected a Best International Newcomer gong in France on Saturday. Mika, 24 – pictured at the awards with Best Inter*national Song winner Rihanna, 19 *– said: “I’m always getting called ‘Lebanese-born singer songwriter’ or ‘American this blah blah’, even French sometimes. “But it doesn’t matter where I was born or what language I speak, the truth is I’m British." what a news!

christy22 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Never understood why they kept introducing him as a Lebanese born singer or the Lebanese/American singer (it must be a marketing strategy...) ...MIKA IS BRITISH:wink2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

violet_sky Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Thanks for clarifying Now the next time one of my friends goes: "Ahh, MIKA, he's the one from Finland, isn't he?", I'm for once not forced to answer: "Okay, do you have 20 minutes? He was born in 1983 in Beirut, then moved over to Paris...blah..." but can just say "Nope, he's British." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
