Swedish music producer becomes the first reality musical star in the world

December 12 Mirja Lakso, 26 from Piteå, travels to America to create a million dollar miracle together with the world famous entrepreneur Donald Trump. The journey is a part of the first chapter that's being written in Mirja's reality musical POP HISTORY, the first reality musical in the world about the life of a human. The story is being created during Mirja's lifetime and the premiere will take place on Broadway in 200 years. Today the opening scene "Glitter and Spotlights" is being released on Mirja's Youtube-channel. "I understand if the idea can seam abstract, but in my eyes it's noting but magical" Mirja says. 

POP HISTORY

During a period of 2 years Mirja have been experimented, learned, prepared, composed and produced music in her apartment to her musical which she describes as her life's work and that she's staring releasing music from it today on her Youtube-channel (PinkieThePrincess). "I'm very nervous, but most of all I'm happy". Mirja says. "When I started with pop music in 2013 I knew so little about what pop was, I come from jazz and I had never in my life seen an audio interface, but I locked myself in my apartment and today I'm one of the few female music producer's in the world that gets her music played on the radio. It feels fantastic. But most important - I finally have my own musical - I have a home now. I have looked for a context, a framework for my music and for my ideas and I have finally found it. I really feel that I belong in my musical. I can do anything now, I can start over with music, do things my way and my music and my heart will lead way. That I will re-emerge on Broadway in 200 years is something I try not to think about, honestly it still feels weird even for me. I'm trying to live here and now, write my songs and just do my thing." Mirja says.     

Mirja explains that POP HISTORY is a philanthropic art project and that she today, under her new musical name "Pinkie The Princess", does everything from writing and producing the music to directing and editing the videos her self. She doesn't wanna work alone forever, but she explains that she needed to start over alone. In POP HISTORY Mirja gets to grow up in the world of pop music, on her own terms, far away from the academic ideals and prestige she was driven by as a child and teenager, and she get's to use all her talent and creativity to do what she loves most, help others. "Most people say that my ability to write hit songs is my biggest talent, but thats not true. Compassion is my biggest talent and that's the core in my musical." she says and continues "POP HISTORY is a philanthropic idea and many things can be said about me as a philanthropist; I have travled the world, I have seen a lot of things, I have met a lot of people that have touched my heart and changed my life. These people are the biggest purpose of my musical and will always be. Of course what I'm aiming for seams impossible most of the time, but like Nelson Mandela said "It always seams impossible until it's done". And I don't think that I can save the world, I just think that I can change it - any person can. I'm choosing to stick to what I believe in and just do my very best every day trying to be creative and trying to live a life that as many people as possible can benefit from. Sharing is my passion. It has always been." 

Donald Trump

Donald Trump has 2 songs in the first chapter that is addressing him, "The Million Dollar Prayer" and "The Song of The Miracle" that will be filmed in New York City together with the Emmy Award winning editor Bill Cammack. "I'm very excited about working with Bill and I'm also excited about my press conference also in Stockholm before my depurate. I'm excited about many things." Mirja says and explains that she has quit her job, borrowed hundreds of dollars to work on her musical. She has gotten offers from labels, producers, publishers and managements, but since july 2013 she has turned down everything and worked by her self developing and investing in what she believes in; her music and her ideas. "People think I'm crazy and I know that this is one of the biggest risks in pop history (meaning both her musical and the pop history of the planet), because if nothing good comes from this I will be homeless, I will have no where to go, but still this is what I truly believe in, this is just something I have to do. If Donald Trump was in my shoes and had my believes, he would have done the some thing. It's about daring, it's about really going for what you what, it's about believing in yourself and in your product, it's about risking everything you have to create your dream, to create your future. And people ask me why I chose Donald Trump. The answer is simple. We have the same vision; The world."

The Million Dollar Miracle 

The miracle Mirja wants to create is being described in her lyrics and her music and the plan of the million is based on her philanthropic ideas and the research she have done about other pop artist with the same passion she has. "I will turn to Madonna, Akon, Stevie Wonder and I will also anchor money in The United Nations through a Swedish scientist in Iraq. Together with Donald Trump we will give away money to people that need help; to blind people, to orphaned children, victims of AIDS/HIV and malaria, to homeless people and to people fleeing from ISIS in Iraq. I have written music about this, I have produced music about this, I have directed videos about this, I have edited videos about this, I have done research about this and I have made a plan for this. I didn't get the loan from Switzerland unfortunatley, but it doesn't matter, nothing can stop me. In 2 weeks I'm risking everything I got left, which is my apartment, and I'm flying to New York City to make this miracle happen. I don't even have a place to stay all of the time but I got something better than a problem: I got faith." she says.

Mirja explains that she will pray between 12 and 9 december 18-24 by the Christmas tree on Rockefeller Center, spend Christmas eve together with homeless people on the streets of New York and the 25th she will wait on the famous bridge close to the Plaza hotel in Central Park. She will wait there for a messenger. "I will do all of these things to build up to one of the most beautiful Christmas miracles in history." Mirja explains. These actions will also be described in the song she've written to Donald Trump "The Song of The Miracle (Donald Trump's Song)"

More music will be released on Mirja's Youtube-channel and on Spotify and iTunes before Mirja's departure to New York City. Mirja will also visit New York Times, The New Yorker, CNN and Al Jazeera as soon as she gets to America. I know I have all odds agains me, but if I don't sacrifice everything for what I believe in people won't call it a miracle on Broadway in 200 years and the people I'm trying to help today will be left empty-handed. My life is a musical and if I'm going to dress my self in all my dreams I need to dress my self in all my courage." Mirja says.
