#BIRTHDAY: Vasil from North Macedonia is 40 today Those performers selected for 2020 but ended up performing a year later. They were a patient bunch. And some must have thought they’d blown their chance when the 2020 contest was cancelled. Today’s birthday boy Васил Гарванлиев/Vasil Garvanliev had to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Blas Cantó from Spain is 33 today If you recall, it seemed like there were hundreds of performers who didn’t get the 2020 gig but were then kept on for Rotterdam 2021. Actually, the number was far less than that but it’s a nice thought to hold. […]
#BIRTHDAY: James Newman from the UK is 39 today Eurovision fans love a record breaker. The singer who scored the most points. The countries that have won the most times. The first song to include the word ‘unbeknownest’. They all have their place. Other records are less coveted […]
#BIRTHDAY: Sandro from Cyprus is 28 today That “missing” contest from 2020 will always be an enigma. “Who would have won?”, “How would the hosts have done?”, and “Who would have been the surprise non-qualifier?” are all questions we’ve asked since that time. One of that Class of […]
#BIRTHDAY: Victoria from Bulgaria is 27 today That class of 2020, eh? They keep amazing us with their also being the class of 2021. It was commendable of the various TV companies continuing to back them, and it was ironic the winners of 2021 weren’t there in 2020. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Arilena Ara from Albania is 26 today It’s another near miss today. You know, the contest that never was in 2020. Some could call it purgatory. And some managed to get out of said purgatory in 2021. And then there were the others… Today’s birthday girl Arilena […]
#BIRTHDAY: Athena Manoukian from Armenia is 30 today There’s that exclusive club of performers that was formed in 2020. So exclusive that only around a dozen acts are fully paid-up members. A large number applied, but lost out due to an appearance in 2021. This club is those […]
#BIRTHDAY: Elisa from Portugal is 25 today The year 2020 seems a long time ago now. It was the year some thought the world had ended, because their favourite TV show went on hiatus. There were, of course, far more serious things going on. But we’re hear to […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ben Dolic is 27 today You have to feel for the Class of 2020. Well, maybe not all of them as they got held back and became part of the Class of 2021. But those who ‘graduated’ in 2020 so they were off the scene a year […]
#BIRTHDAY: Samanta Tīna from Latvia is 35 today For some, taking part in our favourite TV show becomes all-consuming. They try, and try, and try to win that golden ticket to a city somewhere in or near Europe, desperately wanting the chance to show us all how good […]
