But what will they do if Sweden and Finland and Israel and Norway will also draw first half… oh wait, I‘m sure that won’t happen. They‘ll find a way to prevent this. ;)

Fans can get really ridiculous with their conspriacy theories. The halves are drawn on a live press conference after the semi-final. Everyone draws from the same pot. It's not rigged.
Why would they even rig it? The EBU has full power over the contest, if they wanted to fully determine the running order of the shows they would have done so already, instead of keeping on drawing the halves.

Not necessarily, 5 out of the last 8 winners came from the first half. The producers wouldn't dare to mess with a favorite, so they would likely place it near the end of the half (10-13)
For sure La Zarre will not sing at the beginning of the show but she needs enough time to organize her staging so maybe she will sing after the commercial break which is around 9th exhibition. But it all depends if the other pretenders Sweden and Finland will get 1st half. They both have complex stagings to organize. It will be curious who is going to gave the priority.
The most hilarious thing would be all pretenders packed in the first half, Sweden Norway Finland Israel and Austria.

Glad they stopped arriving the artists from cars and had them all arrived before the Carpet show, this has to go much smoother than before! (y)
