Hallelujah! Mika Considers Quitting Music

In easily the best news of the day, Mika says he might be quitting the music industry soon.

The 26-year-old 'Grace Kelly' singer is considering abandoning music to set up a cartoon company.

He tells The Sun: "I might continue making music till I die but there's also a chance I might quit soon.

"There's a chance people may think 'We're done with that Mika'. In that case I'd start a cartoon company. I'm a good artist and designer."

The pop star – real name Michael Holbrook Penniman Jr – designed the artwork for both his studio albums 'Life in Cartoon Motion' and 'The Boy Who Knew Too Much'.

He should! Maybe he'll be more trustworthy as a cartoon studio's boss, because he cut a poor figure as musician: he scheduled a gig in Rome and then he took back his word. Here he's a sort of a "gigolo" for middle aged rich ladies who follow and cuddle him everywhere, so just one gig in ****** Milan is sufficient to comfy Mika to make him sell lots of cds. He is become a too much expensive toy for many of his fans (including me).

"I'm a good artist and designer", Mika says modestly.
