#BIRTHDAY: SuRie from the UK is 34 today Sometimes performers aren’t always remembered for their three minutes of singing on that hallowed stage. Just occasionally, there’s an event outside their control that overshadows what they’re there to do. We won’t dwell on the incident that befell today’s birthday […]
#BIRTHDAY: Amaia from Spain is 24 today As you’ll know, we pick performers from all years when we celebrate birthdays here. You’ll relish the black & white of some, but equally you’ll enjoy the “4K HD-ness” of the more recent contests. As it happens, today we go all […]
