This evening Europe’s top performer will compete for glory at the Eurovision Song Contest but in among all the European singers will be one competitor who may look a little out of place in this European competition – an Australian.
Why are Australia competing you ask? Is their entrant Guy Sebastian simply lost?
The Eurovision Song Contest has developed something of a cult following in Australia over the years so this year, to celebrate the contest’s 60th anniversary, organisers have decided to invite an Australian entrant.
An Australian jury panel will submit the Australian vote and viewers Down Under will vote just like the rest of us in Europe.
X Factor Australia judge Guy Sebastian, winner of Australian Idol in 2003, has been selected to represent the Aussies and bookies have installed him as one of the favourites to win.
The Malaysian-born singer-songwriter will sing ‘Tonight Again’ which you can see in the video above.
