🇱🇹 Don’t wait: Silvester Belt’s hope for Lithuania

Lithuania is taking a pop banger to Eurovision this year, and we’re here for every bit of it.

Michael caught up with out-and-proud singer Silvester Belt to dive into the meaning of Luktelk and his love of Australia’s Troye Sivan. They also talk about growing up queer in Lithuania.

🎵 Will we hear an English version of Luktelk?

🍆 Does Silvester actually sing about a medical condition?

🕺 What’s Silvester’s dance of choice?

You can see Silvester Belt perform Luktelk during Semi Final 1. Watch it on SBS:

  • Live on Wednesday 8 May at 5am AEST (and remember to vote)
  • Prime time on Friday 10 May at 7:30pm AEST

📺 See the full video podcast exclusively on Spotify Podcasts
