🇬🇷 Anxiety and shorts: Meeting Victor Vernicos

Comedy, Interviews, Music, Society & Culture

He might be young, but Greece‘s Victor Vernicos is full of talent. He took some time out to chat with Michael about the excitement of walking on to the massive Eurovision stage with What They Say, the song he wrote as a 14 year old. They chat about the first rehearsal and keeping secrets about eating too much, and there’s even a message for Australia’s Greek community.

🥲 How are emotions a big part of Victor’s performance?

🎤 Will we ever see Victor in a boy band?

🩳 What are Victor’s 2024 Eurovision staging plans?

You can see Victor Vernicos perform What They Say during Semi Final 2. Watch it on SBS:
