Sweden victorious, France finish 16th

Four hours of show, a Swedish triumph. Saturday evening May 13, Loreen offered the trophy to her country, with the title “Tatoo”. “It’s crazy, it’s surreal, I’m so happy, full of gratitude”, said the winner of Eurovision 2023. A victory hailed and celebrated by Swedes who had been waiting for the event for years. And Loreen is not at her first attempt. She had already won in 2012.

Liverpool paid tribute to Ukraine

Sweden is none other than the queen of Eurovision, with a seventh trophy to its credit, launched by the title “Waterloo” by Abba. The tube that has become global will celebrate its 50th anniversary next year. The 2024 edition will obviously be organized in Stockholm and not in France. Because Saturday night, La Zarra finished in 16th place. A little later in the evening, it pitches in the Quebec candidate. At the distribution of points, a gesture is controversial on social networks. La Zarra seems to give a middle finger. She explains herself at the end of the show: “It’s just a gesture of disappointment, which we use between friends”, she justified herself. Eurovision also paid tribute to Ukraine, with the Liverpool anthem “You will never walk alone”.
