Mika at The Brit Awards 2008 held at Earls Court. London, England - 20.02.08

The Grace Kelly hitmaker admits he is under pressure to pen a follow up his 2007 debut LP Life In Cartoon Motion but is determined to stand his ground and not start writing until he feels inspired - no matter how large the financial incentive.

He says, "People are trying to put pressure on me (to write a new album) but I'm not giving in. It will be ready when it's ready - expect the unexpected.

"I think some people see me as someone with a big pound sign on my head but I'm taking no notice. I've been going out a lot to check out weird visual theatre. I'm feeling very inspired."
