And on what basis do you support him and say that he has none of these flaws. Do you know him well enough to refute these claims.
Mika is a celebrity and public image and behavior is what counts. His behavior has been nothing less than disgraceful and humiliating. For his lack of respect to women, the Rakhi Sawant incident is prime example. Not that Rakhi Sawant is someone I care for or respect, but if you look at the pictures he is clearly forcing himself on her. Just because a woman flirts does not mean she is open for physical attention in public.
Well let us assume that he was not at fault here. A respectable man would have apologized for having embarassed a woman, even if she was wrong. A respectable man would not utilize every opportunity to make fun of her and sling mud at her. A respectable man would know when to let things go and take a higher road.
Let us forget that in the past and look at Jhalak and the way he flirts with Urmila. Flirting is harmless. However, you can clearly see he is crossing the line. He is publicly embarassing a woman, who clearly dislikes his advances. How can one flirt in such an uncouth and pervese manner in public is beyond me.
Clearly his behavior in the past shows utter lack of respect for women. Show me an incident where he has treated women with dignity and respect and I will reconsider.
He is even disrespectful to his choregrapher. No doubt he may have valuable contribution, all contestants disagree with their choreographers from time to time. However, Mika appeared so rude and argumentative and full of himself.
He blatantly told of the judges. He did not want to receive criticism, he did not care for improvement, he flat out told them that he did what he wanted and did not give a damn about them. None one behaves that way towards people who are more knowledgible in a subject matter. There is a way of politely disagreeing.
Worst was his complete lack of effort. It was always like he came out there and threw a dance together. Completely lacklustre boring and apalling. While other contestants are sweating it off to learn and grow he is quite content being full of himself. He does not care that he got to stay while more deserving people were voted out. He kept on being big headed.
He did show improvement, but it was miniscule. Even his improvement was peppered with snide remarks.
Clearly Mika has a lot of fans, but what warped logic makes a person like Mika likeable is beyond me. Perhaps Mika fans can give us actual illustrations of him being a good person deserving of a certain amount of respect. Some concrete evidence rather than abstract statements. Then perhaps I might have to reconsider my stand on Mika.
