BEIRUT & MATHEW WILLIAMSON! MIKA BLOG!

Posted on July 26th, 2008 by Mika
Marhaba everybody from my hotel room in Beirut!   Apologize for not having posted anything earlier, to be quite honest its been a bit of a crazy day!  Arrived in Beirut this PM after almost missing my flight from Jordan.  Arrived and went straight to a press conference where I got swallowed up for a couple hours.     Just returned now from eating probably a third of the fish in the Mediterranean!  Fried, grilled, baked! The lot! At this amazing restaurant on the water. Its so good to be back in Beirut, I'm loving every second of it!    Check out my friend Mathew Williamson's shop window in London.  You all know how keen I am for anything based on the circus! Mathew recently made a beautiful jacket for the opening of my Paris show at Parc Des Princes.  Check out the window, its lurvelly!!           Gonna try and go to sleep now, once I freak out on the man next door to me at my hotel, who seems to be playing music louder than I do at my gig!! fff*&%$£$£^£^%ing hell!!!!!!!! MXXXXX!!!XXXXXXX!!!!XXXXX

Have you ever seen the Cirque du Soleil? As you like the Circus so much I think you have, but if not, you just have to see their show. It`s extremely beautifull, a different kind of Circus. They look after every detail, their music is live, and they even invent the language of the lyrics (if not, they sing in “espéranto”, I don`t know the word in english)!!!
You have to look at them and tell us your expert opinion wink.

Goodmorning dear “Mikuzzo”, this store is truly amazing!There is a similar close to my city, where in addiction to clothes and accessories “stranges” you can find the remains of the aircraft in Word War actual size, (one of them is even falls into the beaten inside the shop)remnants of war,unexploded bombs, (I hope!!), hair dryer shaped like a duffy duck,old vintage radio, gramophones, original paintings
ecc…but it is too expensive for me having 3 children to think about, if you want you can visit the site:www.gigole.it, I think you’d like this store, certain that if you come from me in ITALY ITALY ITALY,you may go to visit in person,good week, big kisses, MARI AND SONS.

Sort of like the Swarovski crystals that time.

Paris show at Parc Des Princes? I was there. It has been my first Mika concert and I found marvelous. The stage:  clown mouth, all those brilliant colors moving for everywhere. It couldn’t have been better. I met you after the concert. I’m the Brazilian girl (MFC member) who asked you when you would come to Brazil. I wished to congratulate you for the fantastic show but I’ve felt shy to keep talking because of my poor English.
And about the noise? … I hope you have slept well that night!
