The next artist to rehearse are Jessika ft. Jenifer Brening. We have just watched their first run through of Who We Are live on screen for San Marino and here is our initial reaction.

Staging

Jessika and Jennifer are joined by not just two robots but FOUR!!! On the one side are three of them and on the other side is just one with a sign saying “I’m Not Your Robot”.  Later the sign flips and says “Will You Marry me”. After this Jessika starts interacting with the robot. In the end, both form a heart with their hands.

Vocals

Vocals are like in the national selection. Solid, not super strong but works with the performance.

Costumes

Jessika is wearing a black cape in the beginning. When she drops it she wears a glitter top. Jenifer is all in pink and black.
