#BIRTHDAY: Lotte Nilsson from Denmark is 60 today A duet. That chance to get two singers for the price of one. Sometimes there’s chemistry, sometimes not. That can be part of the appeal of the duet – do they really get on? Today’s duet is set around a […]
#BIRTHDAY: Morgane from Belgium is 50 today Have you ever thought that some performers might not want to be at our favourite TV show? Or that they might want to shed their image as a Eurovision performer when they turn their back on music for, say, a career […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sigga from Iceland is 63 today It’s repeat offender time again. You know the sort – They have a good/bad/indifferent result when they take part a first time. They get the bug and come back again. Repeat as necessary. Today’s birthday girl Sigga (née Sigríður Beinteinsdóttir) appeared […]
