THE NETHERLANDS 🇳🇱
Eurovision 1975 winner Getty Kaspers added to line-up Het Grote Songfestivalfeest after public outrage. Talk shows and newspapers called it a scandal, and on social media, the announcement also led to backlash. But the outrage had a result: the festival organisers have finally invited the “Ding A Dong” singer to the show.

JUNIOR EUROVISION 2019 🇵🇱
The Silesian Theatre in Katowice will be the venue for the Opening Ceremony for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest. The theatre which is the largest in Silesia and opened in 1907, will play hosts to the participants from all 19 participating nations on November 18. The Opening Ceremony will begin at 16:00 local time, with a live broadcast via JuniorEurovision.tv. It has not yet been announced if TVP will be broadcasting the event on television, as has been seen at previous contests.

MALTA 🇲🇹
Back in July, photos emerged of Destiny Chukunyere at the filming of X Factor Malta. Now, as the series gets underway, the former Junior Eurovision winner revealed that she is indeed participating. Her audition is due to air tomorrow. The winner of X Factor Malta will go on to represent Malta in Rotterdam next year.

SERBIA 🇷🇸 We needed a bad song and we got it. Hurricane presented a bad mix of Balkan sound with disco tune in LOCO LOCO. Impossible to understand it, feel it and dance with it. Maybe the song presentation will change our minds. The Balkan banger was composed by Nemanja Antonić (also behind Hurricane’s Hasta la Vista) while Darko Dimitrov worked with him on the arrangement. Band member Sanja Vučić wrote the lyrics. 4 0
