UNITED KINGDOM – The Black Eyed Peas star has suggested that sending The Voice champion would be a surefire way to give the UK a great chance of taking the crown once more.

Speaking in an exclusive interview to launch The Voice Kids, he said: “How comes the winner of The Voice doesn’t automatically go to Eurovision?

“You know what I’m saying? That would work.”

The rapper may finally have landed on a great idea after Michael Rice, with no profile, came last with a paltry 11 points in this year’s competition held in Tel Aviv last month.

It was the fourth time in 17 years the UK had finished in last place.

AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 Australia's Eurovision star Montaigne has released her entry 'Technicolour' on streaming services; announced a live performance this weekend; and will share a pop video shortly. Written and produced specifically with Eurovision in mind, the banger combines upbeat pop stylings with catchy anthemic hooks. The Sydneysider co-wrote her Contest track alongside songwriter and producer Dave Hammer. Montaigne will give her first live performance of Technicolour at the 2021 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, which is available to stream live on Saturday 6 March at 08:00 CET (or 18:00 AEDT) on SBS On Demand. Those kind people at SBS will be removing the geo-block for international viewers, so we might not be getting Australia Decides in 2021, but this does mean those of us in Europe still have the opportunity to enjoy one Eurovision reveal over brunch or breakfast. 6 0
