This Thursday, November 28, Mika was invited to the studio of Culture Media on Europe 1. He returned to the reasons why he no longer wants to do television in France.
A few days ago, Mika caused a surprise by making a radical decision regarding his career. Guest of Nagui in Taratata on November 15, he explained that he would no longer do television shows in France. “In France, it's over, I'm stopping all my TV shows in France“, he declared before justifying himself by assuring that he would still go on the sets as a guest to sing and to “come and talk“. Thus, Mika will not make his return in a future season of The Voice.
Mika explains why he no longer wants to do a TV show
This Thursday, November 28, the singer was invited to the studio of Culture Media on Europe 1 to talk about his role as godfather of Telethon which takes place on November 29 and 30. Asked about his radical decision, Mika gave a little more explanation. “I never got tired of TV, you know, before there was a little bit… I remember when there was really this snobbery around TV, let's say, in relation to musicians. And it's so old-fashioned, in fact, it's so stupid to say that now, so it's not that. It's that now, I'm entering a phase where I'm writing a new album and also, I'm very aware now that I've done a lot of TV“, he begins.
Mika explains what he looks for in television
The singer says he would especially like to see a revival on television. “I love TV and I love this conversation and this direct contact that we can have with an audience, with our audience, but when it's exciting, when it's new, when it's different and when there there is experimentation, there is something at stake, we feel this energy. And it's becoming urgent and I think that's it. What I'm more expressing is a desire for invention, reinvention and experimentation. So, doing the same stuff again, I don't really want to. Do something new… “, confided Mika. He therefore prefers to concentrate on more original projects.
