“are you Hot?”. Like Madonna at the legendary 1987 Concert in Turin, Laura Puccini greeted the Pala Olympic crowd beginning with the second semifinals of the Eurovision Song Contest that determined the other ten contestants who would compete for the final victory on Saturday night. Belgium, Czech Republic, Azerbaijan, Poland, Finland, Estonia, Australia, Sweden, Romania and Serbia join Switzerland, Armenia, Iceland, Lithuania, Portugal, Norway, Greece, Ukraine, Moldova and the Netherlands, who already won Tuesday’s final. The Big Five France, Spain, Great Britain, Germany and Italy, with duo Mahmoud and Blanco, also have direct access to Saturday evening. for a total of 25 countries.

Emma Muscat from Malta, known in Italy for her participation in Amici, also stayed out.

There is also room to honor the Sanremo Festival, the putative father of Eurovision: “It’s Italian history, to be remembered.” So like the royal wedding in Great Britain or Thanksgiving in the United States, Sanremo – from Domenico Modogno to Manesquen – is the Italian tradition. Evening guest Il Volo, in a semi-virtual version with Gianluca Ginoble remotely because he tested positive for Covid. The trio pulled off Pala Olimpico with a rock version of Grande amore, which they won in Sanremo in 2015 and then participated in Eurovision. At 11.15 pm the usual salutation, but the elimination of Achille Lauro leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
