With the contest approaching more rapidly than we had anticipated (how exciting??), the information on which faces and voices will accompany our viewing has been trickling in at a faster pace in recent weeks. There are now a substantial number of commentators and spokespeople confirmed for Kiev’s rendition of the contest and you can find a handy list of each country’s presenters below.
Most notable in the list is the loss of Julia Zemiro and Sam Pang, Australia’s Eurovision champions for the past few years, having joined the commentary team in 2009 and continued through to Australia’s increased levels of participation in recent years. Myf Warhurst and Joel Creasey will take over.
Kati Bellowitsch, Douwe Bob, Wiktoria and Pavlo Shylko have all been confirmed as spokespeople for the jury voting, and are the most notable names so far.
