Mika is set to change career - and swap pop for cartoons.

The ‘Love Today’ singer, who designed the vivid cover of his hit debut album ‘Life in Cartoon Motion’ in 2007, has revealed he wants to launch his own animation company.

 

The 26-year-old pop star also plans to be a full-time artist if he stops selling records.

 

He told Britain's The Sun newspaper: “I might continue making music until I die but there's also a chance I might quit soon. Theres a chance people think, ‘We're done with that Mika.’ In that case I'd start a cartoon company. I'm a good artist and designer."

 

Mika, who has been nominated for an MTV Europe Music Award (EMA), recently admitted he can be annoying when people first meet him.

 

He said: "When I first work with people they either think I'm the biggest idiot in the world and quit and go around spreading total nonsense about me, or they get me and stick with me.

 

"My band and crew will be with me forever."
