Olly Alexander, the talented musician from the band Years & Years, has finally opened up about his recent experience at the Eurovision Song Contest. As many of you know, the highly anticipated event took place this past weekend and saw Switzerland's act Nemo take home the trophy with their incredible performance of "The Code". Unfortunately, for fans of the UK, the results were not as favorable as they had hoped. Despite receiving points from other countries, the UK was left with a disappointing zero points from the public vote.
After hearing the news live on television and putting on a brave face, Olly, 33, has now taken to social media to share his true thoughts on the matter. In a post on Instagram, he expressed his pride in his team and their performance, calling it an "amazing experience" that he will be processing for a long time. He also took the opportunity to congratulate Nemo and praise their talent and kindness.
But what caught everyone's attention was Olly's comment about the zero points from the public vote being "iconic". While some may see this as a negative result, Olly has chosen to see it as a defining moment in his Eurovision journey. He has also thanked his fans for their love and support, which he is truly grateful for.
Moving on to the actual performance, Olly wowed the audience with his song "Dizzy" during the Grand Final. Despite the disappointing outcome, fans were quick to show their support for the artist and assure him that he deserved better. Many commented on his post, praising his performance and expressing their disbelief at the zero points.
The Eurovision Song Contest, which took place in Sweden this year, has sparked some controversy with Lorraine Kelly calling it a "scandal". At the Bafta TV Awards the following night, she praised Olly for handling the loss so well and assured everyone that he will bounce back from this "crushing" result.
