#BIRTHDAY: SuRie from the UK is 32 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: Elhaida Dani from Albania is 28 today Do you think it’s only a matter of time before another country wins our favourite TV show for the first time? It could, of course, be this year. Our friends in Albania have never won, but they can get out […]
#BIRTHDAY: Laurent Vaguener is 74 today It must be something when you know you’re a country’s last ever entry at Eurovision. You’ll be the last word and you might even make those clip shows. And then someone comes along 25 years later… Today’s birthday boy Laurent Vaguener (né […]
#CZECHIA: Benny Cristo reveals his song for Rotterdam The Czech Republic has revealed the song Omaga that carries the country’s hope at the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam. Broadcaster ČT had already confirmed Benny Cristo would once again be representing his country, but we finally know what […]
#BIRTHDAY: Guildo Horn from Germany is 58 today Sometimes there are no words to describe a performance at our favourite TV show. They put on a show that’s so outrageous that you can’t help but watch for three minutes (and occasionally six or even nine minutes). Back in […]

#BIRTHDAY: Edsilia Rombley is 43 today There’s a small but exclusive club of performers who have done a certain other thing at our favourite contest – become hosts. The first was Corry Brokken in 1976. One more individual will earn their membership this year. So following Corry, Yardena, […]
#BIRTHDAY: Ajda Pekkan from Turkey is 75 today What’s the oddest subject of a Eurovision song you can think of? Many things have been covered, mostly about falling in love with someone, or falling out of love with someone. Today we have a song about fuel. No, not […]
#BIRTHDAY: Natasha St-Pier from France is 40 today Our friends in Canada keep trying to get in on the act, and who can blame them? One of its daughters even won once, so they, quite rightly, feel they have more claim to the winner’s podium than, say, Malta. […]
#BIRTHDAY: Vukašin Brajić from Bosnia & Herzegovina is 37 today We obviously would like to see more countries taking part in our favourite TV show. There are a few who have tried their luck in the past, but currently sit on the sidelines so they can point and […]
