Israel: Eden Golan disguised in Malmo!
Two months after Eurovision, Eden Golan reveals with a social media post, one more unknown aspect of the very different song contest we all experienced in Malmö. The Israeli representative had to disguise herself to get out of the hotel where she was staying in Sweden, revealing the complicated reality of being Israel’s representative in the contest this year.
In an emotional post on social media, Eden Golan revealed the dark side of her Eurovision experience in Malmö, Sweden. The singer, who took fifth place in this year’s competition, uploaded a photo where no one can recognize her at first glance and explains the reasons why she had to disguise herself every time she left the hotel:
I thought a lot about which photo to share and chose a moment that seemed strange and funny at first but no less scary and dangerous. Many people know that we were surrounded by the best security guards to protect our delegation, but they don’t know about those times when I had to disguise myself to avoid being harmed when we went out.

Eden Golan expressed her concern about the strong anti-Semitism that is growing worldwide, but also her hope for a better future.
It is sad that we are back to the time when a Jewish woman had to hide to avoid being hurt…I know better days will come. I pray every day that they will come!
Eden Golan after her victory in Hakokhav Haba, represented Israel at Eurovision 2025 with the song Hurricane, taking fifth place in the final with 375 points, almost all from televoting, where she finished second.
