If Rina was up for it and this was true, I really wouldn’t be surprised if the BBC got cold feet and put a stop to having a contender for the win as there’s no way they would want to host two years in a row.

Makes sense why they passed on Calvin then as well

I've seen so many people say this. I imagine a huge amount of those are people (possibly) joking but I just don't get it.

Based on how they went about it this year, and how much they threw at it, I don't see why they wouldn't.

The contest yes they did give it everything but the entry though felt very much going through the motions.

All the more reason to do it.

Discounting the live performance, I don't think the entry was that bad, and based on how it performed chart wise it seems a lot of people thought the same.

I still think it's worse that they chose Mae over Calvin and Ellie though at the last minute!!!


You keep repeating this over and over and over again as if it's a fact, but can you supply anything to back it up as being anything more than an idle internet rumour?

Calvin's denial seemed quite affirmative, as if it wasn't ever a thought that crossed his mind.

That person is not an Ellie insider, they were speculating and in the end accepted the theory was false.

That Calvin and Ellie rumour was complete and utter nonsense. End of story!

Anyway back to 2024 and I think the BBC need to get another management company who can get the major labels involved. It doesn’t work sending an act without a label as the staging has a small budget and we end up with two polystyrene trumpets and that was with a record label involved.

The BBC press announcement and Lee Smithurst's comments strongly suggest that the UK 2024 Eurovision entry was internally selected in the summer after receiving a lot of interest.
