Mika could be the most perfect pop star we’ve seen in years: flamboyant, sexually enigmatic, outgoing, the owner of a racy background, and the writer of sterling pop music that is as catchy as it is smart. Since his debut (Life in Cartoon Motion) catapulted him into the public gaze, Mika has set a new standard in how our pop stars should deliver the goods: his shoes are designed by Christian Louboutin, his friends include Sir Ian McKellen, he rents s 30-room chateaux in the French Alps, he can spend £1,000 in less than 30 minutes, and he lunches with Stephen Fry. (Did we say he’s sexually enigmatic?)

Mika's latest album is called The Boy Who Knew Too Much.Well, it would be, wouldn't it?

Can't see that? Catch this
