Eurovision favourite sends fans wild as Sweden’s Loreen branded ‘literally perfect’

Sweden's Loreen sent fans wild as she performed at the grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest.

Contest favourite Loreen, who won for Sweden in 2012, performed Tattoo for the Eurovision audience at the M&S Bank Arena on Saturday.

She wore a flesh-coloured outfit and danced in an illuminated enclosed space on the stage as she performed in hope to secure victory for a second time.

Fans took to Twitter to voice their support for the 39 year old, who first triumphed at the competition back in 2012.

Following her stellar performance, one fan exclaimed: "LOREEN WAS LITERALLY PERFECT!"

Another had already made up their mind about who should take home the trophy, saying: "Loreen Winner #Eurovision."

"I couldn't even focus on Albania because I was still processing Loreen. And still am lol," penned another.

In the past decade since bringing home the coveted Eurovision win, Loreen has enchanted audiences with her voice, unique artistic expression, and captivating lyrics.

Alongside her English tracks, the singer has also produced critically acclaimed music in her native language Swedish, and even turned her hand to acting in the film adaptation of Vinterviken.

Last year, the singer returned to her roots and brought another dose of electrifying pop music to the stage with her song Neon Lights, a track inspired by a modern day Joan of Arc.

Loreen is one of 26 acts performing at the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool to an expected global audience of 160 million viewers, according to the BBC.

Meanwhile, the UK’s Eurovision entry Mae Muller has received messages of support from the world of politics, as Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said “we’re all cheering you on”.

“Good luck to (Mae Muller) a Kentish Town local, at @Eurovision tonight!” Sir Keir tweeted.

“We’re all cheering you on.”

Labour Mayor of London Sadiq Khan tweeted: “Tonight we’re rooting for our fellow Londoner Mae Muller in the #Eurovision final.”

She will close the show with I Wrote A Song – a slot generally considered a disadvantage.
