Mika

I was always told I was ugly. I still think I am ugly. I know I've got an odd face and you can't tell me otherwise.

I write songs to turn myself into something else. And then I become that, and I want to become something else.

In the past, it weighed on me because nobody in my family is gay. I had no role models so I had to find my own way.

I don't like to get in front of people.

I was really stuck in the whole Farah Fawcett hairdo long after it was past being in fashion.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
