Media Release Thursday 23 January 2020 Media Release Thursday 23 January 2020 Eurovision royalty to grace Eurovision – Australia Decides 2020 Watch the Live TV Final on Saturday 8 February 8.30pm AEDT on SBS and cast your vote SBS and production partner Blink TV today revealed Swedish pop phenomenon and winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 Måns Zelmerlöw is heading to the Gold Coast to perform and be one of the Jury members for Eurovision – Australia Decides next month. Swedish singer, songwriter and TV presenter Måns Zelmerlöw masterminded one of the most memorable wins in Swedish Eurovision Song Contest history with his performance of the uplifting multi- platinum single Heroes. After winning, Heroes peaked at #1 on iTunes in 21 countries and his tour across Europe took him to 22 cities – most of them at sold out venues. In 2016, he co-hosted the song contest in Stockholm, Sweden where Dami Im made history winning the Jury vote and coming second overall with her performance of Sound of Silence. Måns Zelmerlöw said: “I’m so excited to come back to my favourite country to perform, and to be a guest judge on the National Eurovision selection show! Australia has sent great songs ever since they joined the Eurovision Song Contest and I think 2020 could be THE year. I might sing a line or two from my winning song from 2015 and from my newest single, Walk with Me, featuring the wonderful Dami Im. Can’t wait to see you all!” Joining him in Australia is Eurovision boss Jon Ola Sand who will step down as Executive Supervisor after Rotterdam 2020. Over the past decade, Jon Ola has become synonymous with the Eurovision Song Contest among the hundreds of millions of viewers who’ve watched him throw to the voting segment with the iconic phrase “take it away.” Jon Ola Sand said: “I’m very happy to be down under and a part of Australia Decides this year. Since first taking part in 2015, SBS has made a huge contribution to the success of the Eurovision Song Contest. Their excellent national selection show, which showcases the country’s best singing talent, underscores SBS and Australia’s place as valued members of the Eurovision family.” Hosted on the Gold Coast and broadcast live and exclusive on SBS on Saturday 8 February, the national selection, now in its second year, showcases ten well-known Australian artists, performing original songs, for the chance to represent the country at the Eurovision Song Contest. Revealed recently, the 2020 contenders from across the musical spectrum vying for the top spot are: Aussie icon Vanessa Amorosi, powerhouse entertainer Casey Donovan, rising First Nations artist Mitch Tambo, glam rock star iOTA, art pop auteur Montaigne, alternative artist Didirri, The Voice winner Diana Rouvas, Australia's Got Talent winner Jack Vidgen, 19-year-old emerging singer- songwriter Jordan-Ravi and Taiwanese-Australian multi-media artist Jaguar Jonze. The winner of the inaugural Eurovision – Australia Decides Kate Miller-Heidke will return to the stage where it all began to perform Zero Gravity, while powerhouse vocalist and Eurovision 2016 runner up Dami Im will take to the stage with a brand new track. SBS Commissioning Editor for Entertainment and Australian Head of Delegation Josh Martin said: “We’re thrilled to welcome Måns and Jon Ola to Australia for our national selection show. Normally, Australia heads to Europe, but in February Europe is coming to Australia! Måns is one of the all-time Eurovision greats and fans are in for a real treat. And it’s with a mix of sadness and excitement that we welcome Jon Ola to our shores as his stewardship of Eurovision approaches the end. Since 2010 he has overseen a phenomenal period of change and growth in the contest, and all of us here at SBS and around Australia will be forever thankful that we were invited to the party!” Creative Director of Eurovision – Australia Decides and Director of Blink TV Paul Clarke said: “Hej Hej, welcome Måns! He was a game changer at Eurovision when he won in 2015 and it will be like a Eurovision masterclass for our artists and audience to see him performing on the Gold Coast. It’s a dream come true for Dami Im to release a song with Måns, and their duet on the night will be one of the highlights of the show. We also look forward to hosting Jon Ola Sand at Australia Decides - he’s been a great advocate for Australia’s involvement in Eurovision over the past decade.” In association with the Queensland Government via Tourism and Events Queensland, the City of Gold Coast, Screen Queensland, APRA AMCOS, Moroccanoil and accommodation partner QT Gold Coast, Eurovision – Australia Decides will be presented at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre on Friday 7 and Saturday 8 February and tickets for the Opening Night Show, Matinee Show are on sale, with limited tickets available to the Live TV Final.

  • L'italia E L'eurovision Song Contest Un Rinnovato
    La musica unisce l'Europa… e non solo C'è chi la definisce "La Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2016 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area (l’anno scorso fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che quest’anno è stata nuovamente invitata dall’organizzazione). L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano: Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv. E oltre a questo, molto più prosaicamente, anche sperimentare una diretta in simultanea in più Paesi e promuovere il mezzo televisivo nel vecchio continente.

  • Btn: Episode 12 Transcript 17/05/16
    BtN: Episode 12 Transcript 17/05/16 Hello and welcome to BtN! Coming up today: Travel back to Ancient Greece to find out how our elections were inspired by theirs. New South Wales cleans up with a new recycling scheme. And why Meghan Trainor pulled her music video just hours after it was released. The Week in News You’ll see all that and more soon but first week one of the federal election campaign has come and gone so let's take a quick look at what went down. Aussie politicians were all over the country campaigning this week, meeting schoolkids, sharing pizza, even catching a ride. The Prime Minister has promised that if his party wins the election it'll give 54 million dollars to help young people with diabetes. It'll help to pay for devices which continuously monitor the level of glucose in their blood. Meanwhile Labor leader Bill Shorten's been making announcements of his own and has said that if Labor is voted in he'll make sure that all primary school students get free swimming lessons. To other news. The Cancer Council wants the Queensland government to ban smoking for anyone born after 2001. That means young people turning 15 this year would never legally be allowed to smoke. But the state's health minister says smoking laws in the state were just beefed up so it wants to see how they go before it thinks about an age ban. And Eurovision was held on the weekend and Australia's Dami Im just missed out on first place.

  • Culture Club Announced Alongside Jessica Mauboy, Dami Im and Paul Kelly for 6Th AACTA Awards Presented by Foxtel
    MEDIA RELEASE Strictly embargoed until 12.01am on Tuesday 22 November 2016 Culture Club announced alongside Jessica Mauboy, Dami Im and Paul Kelly for 6th AACTA Awards presented by Foxtel In the lead up to Australia’s biggest film and television Awards, the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts (AACTA) has announced that iconic UK pop group Culture Club will be performing at the 6th AACTA Awards presented by Foxtel, alongside Australian artists Paul Kelly, Jessica Mauboy and Dami Im like you’ve never seen her before. Culture Club’s performance at the Awards Ceremony will be their only televised performance and will feature the original band line up: singer Boy George, guitarist and keyboardist Roy Hay, bassist Mikey Craig and drummer Jon Moss. Culture Club are returning to Australia for an Encore Tour in mid- December, which will see them perform in some capital cities and several winery shows. Australia’s love affair with Culture Club continues and their June tour saw them sell out shows and perform to rave reviews. Boy George said he was “Thrilled to be coming back to Australia and to be performing at Australia’s biggest celebration of film and television.” The Grammy Award winning group will bring their own unique style and performance to the AACTA Awards. Selling more than 150 million records worldwide, with multiple worldwide number one singles including Do You Really Want to Hurt Me and the BRIT Award-winning Karma Chameleon, Culture Club are one of the true icons of the world music scene. ARIA Award winning actress and Sony Music recording artist Jessica Mauboy will return to perform at the AACTAs four years since her show-stopping performance at the 2nd AACTA Awards, where she also won the AACTA Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in THE SAPPHIRES.

  • Oddsen Inför Eurovision: Här Är Nationerna Som Riskerar Noll Poäng I Finalen
    Oddsen inför Eurovision: Här är nationerna som riskerar noll poäng i finalen Imorgon lördag avgörs finalen i Eurovision Song Contest och det åländska spelbolaget Paf har öppnat för spel på vinnare – och förlorare. Ska man tro på oddsen blir det Ryssland som tar hem segern med ett odds på 1.57 gånger pengarna. Samtidigt uppgår oddsen för att någon nation blir helt utan poäng i finalen till 7.00. På lördag avgörs den 61:a upplagan av Eurovision Song Contest i Stockholm. Utöver oddsen på vinnaren av Eurovision Song Contest 2016 kan man hos det åländska spelbolaget Paf även spela på om något land reser hem från finalen med noll poäng. Just nu uppgår oddset till 7.00 på att någon nation “nollas” i finalen. “Enbart tre bidrag har nollats i Eurovisionfinalen under 2000-talet, varav två under finalen i Wien 2015. Då kammade både hemmanationen Österrike med bidraget I Am Yours med The Makemakes och Tysklands Ann Sophie med Black Smoke hem noll poäng vardera. Innan dess var det Storbritannien, representerat av Jemini och låten Cry Baby som nollades i finalen i Riga 2003”, säger Mattias Lindquist, kommunikationschef på Paf. Allra högst vinnarodds i Eurovisionfinalen har Georgien. Nationen spelas för närvarande som vinnare av Eurovision till det skyhöga oddset 351.00. Näst högst odds har Tyskland som spelas till 251.00 gånger pengarna. Georgien och Tyskland är troligtvis därför de nationer som enligt Pafs oddssättare har störst chans att bli helt utan poäng i finalen. “Senaste och enda gången Sverige blivit nollat i en Eurovisionfinal var år 1963, då Monica Zetterlund med låten En gång i Stockholm inte tilldelades ett enda poäng”, säger Mattias Lindquist.

    INTERMISSION #55 Small E-zine by Ahrvid Engholm, [email protected] for EAPA. In Twitter, follow my newstweets from Nordic sf/fantasy/horror/fandom on @SFJournalen, and my private account @ahrvid. Typos due to autumn arriving, leaves and letters flying about... Early October 2016. I'll send this issue around a bit, hoping to recruit members to EAPA, fandom's oldest electronic APA. EAPA really needs you, so please consider joining! Minac is only 1 page - as a PDF – every second month. Ask me for details: [email protected] Edit-2-rially This Intermission is for EAPA's traditional open October mailing, so I'll do it in the form of a mini- anthology with the best (or least worst...) from previous Intermissions, November last year and on. Please note the message above! EAPA needs /m/o/r/e new blood. (Also a new Official Editor, as ther old one is resigning af6er doing his duty for a long time.) An electronic APA is a good idea, so one should exist. Instead of at a later stage reinventing the wheel, why not use the wheel that already exist! EAPA is a wheel that has rolled for 150 mailings, so let's try to keep it going. Membership doesn't really require much. You write something every second month (or every month if you whish) and press the command for “export as PDF” in your word processor.
