Born 18 August 1983, Beirut, Lebanon is a British singer and musician of American-Lebanese descent.

When he was still young, his parents left Beirut due to the war and moved to Paris. When he was nine years old, his family moved to London, where he entered Westminster School.

While studying at school, Mika developed dyslexia from being harassed and humiliated by classmates and a teacher, and he stopped talking and writing. At the age of 12, his mother took him out of school for home schooling.

Mika took music lessons from Russian opera singer Alla Ablaberdieva, who moved to London in 1991. Then he studied at the Royal College of Music.

After graduating from college, Mika worked for the Royal Opera House, writing music for British Airways and advertising for Orbit bubble gum. His debut single "Relax, Take it Easy", which appeared on the waves of the radio station "BBC Radio 1" in the UK, was immediately recognized as the "hit of the week".

On January 22, 2007, the new hit "Grace Kelly" topped the UK national charts (for the first time in more than half a century of chart history solely based on online sales) and spent five weeks at the top of the charts.

On February 5, 2007, his debut album Life in Cartoon Motion was released. Mika's second studio album "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" was released on September 21, 2009. In various interviews, the singer has repeatedly made it clear to journalists that he is bisexual.

On May 22, 2008 Mika became a laureate of the prestigious Ivor Novello-2008 music award in the nomination "Best Songwriter".
