Alone For Once

the semi finals

Sitting on the couch of the green room alongside both the German and Italian entries, Alesha was telling the band to get ready for the little interruption to introduce the three first entries that were already in the finals.

"We are moments away from finding out which of tonight's acts have made it through to Saturday's final. Six countries automatically have a place: the Big Five, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK plus last year's winner Ukraine. And if you're wondering what makes them all tick? We're about to meet the first three of them now."

Immediately following her speech, a video introducing the entries was shown on the massive screens of the M&S Arena.

Clémence remembered shooting this little video but it confused her as to why only Germany's singer was on the recording meanwhile the three sisters were on it.

If you had one thing you couldn't live without, what would it be and why ?

While the Italian entry answered plants and the German singer said his kids, the sisters went for a little debate. Gab answered music and Clem immediately replied with "Music is not a thing Gab please!" The brunette rolled her eyes but didn't make any further comment. The oldest, Flo, laughed at their behaviour and simply answered "My guitar". The youngest went for a more basic answer with "my phone" that she pulled out from her pocket.

What is your first memory of the Eurovision ?

"Screaming 'Hard Rock Hallelujah' when I was 4 in front of the TV" smiled the redhead, owning a nod of approval from her two older sisters.

"I do believe it's also the first memory I have from the Eurovision." Flo added, "I think we have the video of that moment at home" She smiled.

Have you got any weird (or unusual) talents you can show us ?

"Clem can do all sorts of tumbling stuff," said Gab. "Yeah... I think it's the only thing among us three, to be honest" added the oldest.

Clémence understood that it was her cue to get up from her chair. The video cut to a wider image of the room, her sisters not in front of the camera. The room wasn't big enough for her to really do tumbling so she decided on a simple backflip which she landed perfectly.

"Here representing France we have The Warning, welcome!" Alesha started again when the video finished. The three girls were welcome with applause in the arena. "We heard that Clem has been fangirling over a certain British icon and we're not talking about Harry Styles or David Beckham ladies and gentlemen. We are talking about our amazing host Hannah Waddingham" The crowd cheered at the name of the Eurovision presenter.

The camera cut to Hannah with her hand on her heart sending the young girl a kiss from the stage which made Clem smile brightly. "I love Hannah, I think she is an amazing actress. She was incredible in Game of Thrones and I've been a fan of the show Ted Lasso and Rebecca is my favourite character. So when I learned she was presenting the Eurovision this year I freaked out a little"

"Not just a little" cut Gab with a smile on her face, "She ran into the apartment and screamed about how excited she was about meeting Hannah" Everyone laughed at that comment.

"Well let's take a look at your song representing France this is Disciple" finished Alesha before the camera cut to a short video of their last official rehearsal.
