She mentioned some “personal reasons”. This is how the Quebec singer representing France justified on Saturday April 15, 2023 the cancellation of her performance one month before the Eurovision 2023 final, on May 13 in Liverpool. Worse, the tricolor candidate even had to forfeit two events in which she was to participate, one in Amsterdam, during Eurovision In Concertand the second in London, at the London Party. “Unfortunately following a personal problem that occurred this evening, it is with regret that La Zarra will not be able to perform at the planned concert in Amsterdam”, reported the official Eurovision account on Saturday April 15 before driving the point home this Sunday April 16: “La Zarra, who had to return to Paris, will not be able to perform at the London Party tonight, regrets not being able to meet her fans and apologizes. See you in Liverpool on May 13.” Without much more details, a spokesperson for France 2, partner of the competition and the French candidacy, explained to the newspaper The Parisian that “This is a problem that at his request, I cannot disclose. She prefers to rest to be in shape on D-Day…”. What all the same to feed some concerns among the fans, a few weeks before the competition!

“Thank you for your kindness…”
But this Sunday, April 16, the singer finally gave some news after so much confusion by posting a long message on Twitter: “I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your messages of love and support received since last night. I would have liked so much to be with you all, but sometimes life decides otherwise. So I’m going to need a few days to deal with these difficult times. These moments of intimacy are going to be important to me. Thank you for your kindness. See you in Liverpool. I love you.”, La Zarra wrote from his account. She ensures her presence in Liverpool for the big meeting of Eurovision in a simple way to respond to the many concerns and fears about her motivation to secure her place in the competition for the French delegation. “JI’m not going to lie I have ups and downs compared to the competition”she told the daily The Parisian this same day when she explains that she lost her voice “during six months” and having only really found him for three weeks. For its part, the newspaper 20 minutes announces a “emotional exhaustion” of the artist. But let some be reassured, La Zarra will surely be in top form for his performances on May 12 and 13 in Liverpool. We bet that the title Evidemment will finally bring victory for France!
