This isn’t the first time a Eurovision winner has caught the attention of US TV chiefs. In 2017, Salvador Sobral received an invitation to appear on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Although eager to accept the invite, Salvador was unable to attend the recording due to poor health.
Since 2016, The grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest has been broadcast live to US audiences via Logo TV. The show was commentated by Ross Mathews and RuPaul’s Drag Race star, Shangela.
