Slovenia: Lea says ‘Hvala, ja’ to family

Lea Sirk is something different for Slovenia. Her song, Hvala, ne!, delivers a sound that we haven’t heard from the small ex-Yugoslav nation at Eurovision before. She also isn’t taking the whole thing too seriously.

Lea chatted with Michael about the pink hair and how her children have been an important part of her musical life.

She also explored her take on being a working mum.

See Lea Sirk perform Hvala, ne! in Semi 2 on Friday 11 May on SBS:

  • Live show at 5am AEST
  • Prime time show at 7:30pm AEST
