SuRie would like to return to Eurovision
UK Eurovision representative SuRie would gladly return to the Eurovision stage should the opportunity arise. However, there are no plans to return to the contest in the near future.
The artist worked twice as a backing vocalist with the Belgium delegation in 2015 and 2017 before she represented the UK in Lisbon. In 2015 she was on a Eurovision stage for the first time as one of the backing vocalists of Loïc Nottet. Two years later, she supported Blanche but on this occasion, she had a more direct role, working backstage with Blanche:
“I had more of a role backstage working one-on-one with Blanche. And I don’t know what job title we want to give that; psychoanalyst, guru, mentor, friend, supporter, I don’t know. But it was more responsibility than I had with Loïc.”
In an interview for The Euro Trip, SuRie did not hesitate that she would return to Eurovision if she had the chance to do it. Moreover, she shared that her Eurovision passion goes beyond these three participations. More than a decade before, SuRie recorded the song One Day Love Will Find A Way with the hope of participating in the Junior Eurovision. She submitted her entry but unfortunately, she did not get selected.
“It’s the most beautiful, brilliant show, produced and run by the most amazingly talented people. Why would you not want to work with those people in any capacity?”
SuRie represented the United Kingdom in 2018 with her song Storms. Her performance is also remembered for an incident with a spectator who invaded the stage and took SuRie’s microphone. Despite this disruption of her performance, SuRie carried on with her interpretation. She finished in 24th place in the Final.
