It's official! Olly Alexander, lead singer of Years & Years turned solo artist, has confirmed he is representing the UK at next year's Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden.
In a statement, Olly said:
‘I’ve loved watching Eurovision ever since I was a little kid and I’m beyond excited to be taking part next year. As a young boy I always looked forward to this incredible event of unbridled joy, the wonderfully chaotic mix of musical styles, theatrical performances, heartfelt emotion and humour. I really can’t believe I’m going to be a part of such a special legacy and fly the flag for the UK in the gayest way possible, it shall be an honour!
I’ve wanted to do this for a long time and it feels like the right moment to start releasing music under my own name. I’m determined to give it everything I’ve got and put on an excellent and unforgettable performance for you all!’
Naturally, we couldn't let this news slip past us, so Steven jumped on the mic for an emergency reaction episode. Here's what he has to say about it...
