The entry into the Eurovision Michael Rice does not think that Brexit will affect the United Kingdom

Since the referendum on Brexit, 100 years ago … oh, wait, three years ago (it 's a bit longer), there have been complaints that the rest of the world has not. Europe will punish the UK for the Eurovision Song Contest.

And after an invader interrupted Surie's performance in Lisbon last year, it seemed that the enemies were right.

Michael Rice, who will compete in 2019, does not think Brexit will affect his chances, even if he has not really thought about his chances.

The 21-year-old told Metro.co.uk: "What's happening in Brexit, but it's a music contest that brings people together, it's a way to get people together."

And in terms of his chances in the Tel Aviv standings in May, he said, "I have not really thought about it yet. Bookmakers have their favorites, but I focus on my best effort and the best performance I can give. "

Michael beat five artists, including X Factor star Holly Tandy, at You Decide to represent the UK with his song Bigger Than Us – an impressive figure with high and varied notes. The song of the winner of Think X Factor.

And the video just dropped to add more impact.

The sweet video sees two schoolchildren bound by their love of space and trying to maintain their friendship despite the disagreement of their families.

"The music video will blow everyone up, it's not what you expect from a Eurovision participant," said Michael. The song contains a big message and the video will take you on a journey. It's a question of who you are, no matter what your race, your religion, your baduality, whatever. "

Of course, the video will not be shown in the contest, but we hope it will give Michael an essential promo because it will not happen in the semifinals.

The United Kingdom being one of the "Big Five", as well as Spain, Italy, France and Germany, it pbades directly to the final. Although this may seem like a good thing, the Big Five often miss attention in the semifinals.

In fact, only one of the five big countries has won the last 20 years: Germany with Lena's Satellite in 2010.

"It's really an advantage," said Michael, "but I guess the numbers in the semifinals have a little more visibility, maybe.

"But I still have the performance of the jury and that of the press before the grand finale."

Michael will play Bigger Than Us at the grand finale of Eurovision on May 18 in Tel Aviv.
