Lithuania: 11th time lucky for Aistė Pilvelytė?

The songs and artists for the 2020 Lithuanian national final are revealed. And to our surprise (or not?) one of the contestants will be Aistė Pilvelytė. She is not quite new to the Lithuanian national final. The first time Lithuania had a national selection anyway, in 1999, she was one of the contestants. Another nine attempts to represent her country were about to follow. In 2008, 2010 and 2017, she came closest to Eurovision with a second place. Can it be 11th time lucky for her?

Another contestant you might recognize is Monika Marija. She became 2nd in last year’s national final.

  • Abrokenleg, “Electric boy”
  • Aika, “Paradas”

Vienna 12 points: Jonas Lovv Asked To Tone Down Performance

📷 EBU/Alma Bengtsson According to Norwegian broadcaster NRK, the concern was not about the song itself, but about parts of the performance being considered too suggestive for a family audience. VG reports that the feedback focused on repeated crotch-grabbing and thrusting-style movements, some of which were improvised rather than part of the planned choreography. Jonas Lovv will represent Norway in the second semi-final on Thursday 14 May. He is set to close the show as the 15th act in the running order. Therefore, the Norwegian team still has time to adjust the staging before viewers see it on television. The warning has not led to panic in the Norwegian camp. Lovv has reacted with humour, while also making clear that he takes the EBU’s message seriously. Head of delegation Mads Tørklep said Norway will follow the rules and make the number more family friendly. Lovv earned his Eurovision ticket by winning Melodi Grand Prix earlier this year. His entry “YA YA YA” brings rock energy, strong vocals and a highly physical stage presence to the Wiener Stadthalle. As a result, the performance has already become a talking point during rehearsals. For now, the changes appear to be small adjustments rather than a complete overhaul. Eurovision viewers should still expect an intense and confident Norwegian performance. However, with slightly less emphasis on the movements that sparked the warning. If Norway qualifies, Lovv will return for the Grand Final on Saturday 16 May. The situation adds another storyline to Eurovision week, as artists balance personal expression with the contest’s broadcast guidelines for viewers across Europe. source: NRK
