Well, I actually think that AUstralia 2017 was good for what it was trying to be - sure i'd change some things but
not surprised it didn't do particular well in televote, though 2 point was a bit too harsh

 

[BorisBubbles]

Lol Isaiah had immensely stupid staging that made zero sense.

 

[Preuss]

So considering the fact that it's only confirmed that SJB is doing two acts for now, I can't see her really mess it up at this point. Replay and She Got Me are pretty much in the same category as Fuego last year and as how I've interpreted it, Luca's also having his usual team on board

So I wouldn't count out that SJB will succeed with both her acts this year

How it would be your reaction if Portugal select Sasha?

 

[ESCada]

She is great!!!
Very talented, very particular and very visual.
However, I have to admit that besides Armenia and Georgia in 2016, the rest of these stagings could have been done by anyone and we wouldn't even talk about them.
She's like the Paulo Coelho in the world of Eurovision stage shows.

Pray to god that she doesn’t fuck up

Okay I’ve been stalking Sacha’s Instagram for a while now and it seems like she’s giving Luca and Tamta a fair amount of time. Well done!

 

[Preuss]

I wonder if she'll sit with Cyprus or Switzerland in the green room this year because, quite symbolically, she sits with whoever most likely to succeed

 

[Preuss]

She appears confident enough to post pictures of herself with Luca and Tamta unlike last year so I believe she'll pull of two amazing shows and at least not worsen Luca's and Tamta's chances of doing well

 

[JonnyWest]

I'm surprised she's only responsible for 2 performances this year. I guess she charges much more nowadays

Perhaps she wants to maintain her status as Eurovision royalty but just do performances for $$$ and fail miserably

I'm glad ditched her this year since they had 2 crap stagings in a row

My heart’s bleeding 4 Jess I’d been able to stage it better

 

[Pawhlen]

Both 2017 and 2018 had terrible staging for

 

[Preuss]

I've been very excited to see Sacha's work this year after last year's unfortunate messes, and while I think she's definitely not hurt Luca and Tamta's chances to do well, she's not been increasing them either as I see it, which is perhaps what Luca and Tamta were hoping for in order to fight for the trophy in the end. From the rehearsal clips and pictures, I think that it looks entertaining, slick and professional done and that they will qualify with ease to the GF

So while her stagings are very respectable this year, it's not perhaps a "wow" staging that she's delivered the last years. I predict both Cyprus and Switzerland in the top 10 this year, but curious who she will prefer to sit with during the GF as the entries remain pretty close in the odds at least

 

[Preuss]

Okay the odds these days don't seem to agree with me lol
I'd feel very sad if they're not top ten at least
Not sure if she’s just out of ideas or if it’s just not good enough :? Personally I already prefer the little I’ve seen from Tamta’s performance to Eleni’s

 

[Ezio]

Marvin Dietman >>>>> SJ Baptiste

Having second thoughts about; perhaps it's not bad if Sacha fails this year with her acts in order to make her acts better in the future because right now it just feels like she's doing business :?
So perhaps it's better when she herself contacts delegation to do their staging as some of her best work is when she asks the delegation to do their staging as I think she did with Kristian and Eleni

 

[Preuss]

Poetically Sacha will sit with Luca tonight and he’s gonna do quite well because after having watched Tamta and Luca’s performances after another some times, Luca’s staging’s much more captivating, fun and interesting and he’s a better dancer than Tamta. Not saying this because of Luca’s return with the bookies but he’s got a full package and staging is like a mix of Fuego and Dance You Off (with the colours they used in the melfest version)

Although I slightly prefer Replay it’s a shame if it’s gonna bomb completely but she’s got some points from Greece and Georgia I believe
