/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Last Tuesday “Victoria” music awards took place in Kremlin and among all the famous Russian stars, Sergey Lazarev was there as well. During red carpet, the artist was asked by dni.ru if he still wants to take revenge and bring ESC back to Russia!

“I can still impress, I have something to show. I have many qualities, including musical ones, which I maybe didn’t demonstrate at competitions in 2016 and 2019,” Sergey smiled. “I don’t exclude the possibility of going to Eurovision once again, but I declare with all responsibility: this will definitely not happen in 2020.”

As for now, Sergey is getting ready for a new grand show and its premiere is scheduled for the spring of 2021.

Next year, Channel One will be in charge of the selection of the participant for the competition. As always there are rumors that Alexander Panayotov, Olga Buzova or Zivert can represent Russia. But Sergey has a different point of view.

“In my opinion, should take part a new name, a new artist. I wouldn’t like to point out someone specifically, so not to be accused of partiality.”

Later this day it was released the first part of his EP “Ya ne boyus” (I’m not afraid), in which is included a bonus track in English. The song is called “Goddess” and it’s believed that this was one of the 2 other songs-choices for the contest, as it’s written by Dimitris Kontopoulos and it lasts less than 3 minutes.

Greek magazine TV Ethnos reports today, that Eleni Foureira will appear as a guest at the next Eurovision Song Contest in Israel.

There are no more details, such as whether we will see her in the final or in one of the semifinals, or whether she will appear on her own or with an other artist.

The great success of Elena Foureira and Fuego, especially among the fans of the contest, seems to have prompted the organizers to make that decision. However, if we see Eleni Foureira at Eurovision 2019, this will be the first time that a host country calls as guest the runner up of the previous contest.

Eleni Foureira, in the past few days, has been in Madrid, performing at the Los 40 Music Awards. She sang a different version of Fuego, equally impressive as the original.

The popular Greek artist, received also a platinum record for the sales of Fuego in Spain.
