I know the Mika song but obviously not all the lyrics as I still can't think what the clue is referring to. I'll need to listen to refresh my memory.

Edit: Hmm see if you'd actually alluded to Grace Kelly and Freddie Mercury rather than just saying "my attempts to act like famous celebrities" I might have got it. I was trying to think for ages what that might mean.
