Drag artist La Voix will announce the results of the UK’s national jury on Eurovision on Saturday .
The RuPaul’s Drag Race UK star, 46, whose real name is Christopher Dennis, said she was “absolutely over the moon” and would do her best to behave.
Dubbed the UK’s first Eurovision “spokesqueen”, La Voix follows in the footsteps of stars including Dame Joanna Lumley, Catherine Tate, Nigella Lawson and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.
La Voix, who was forced to withdraw from Strictly Come Dancing after an injury last year, said: “I’m absolutely over the moon to be announcing the UK jury scores at Eurovision 2026.
“It’s the one night where sequins are en masse, key changes are compulsory, and absolutely anything can happen – so naturally I feel right at home. I’ll do my best to behave… but no promises.”
Look Mum No Computer, whose real name is Sam Battle, will perform the UK song Eins, Zwei, Drei.
Battle qualified for the grand final as part of the big four, along with Italy, Germany and France, who contribute the most financially to Eurovision, as well as Austria as this year’s host nation.
Battle began his YouTube career in 2013 and has amassed more than 85 million views and 1.4 million subscribers and followers across his social accounts.
He is best known for his homemade musical instruments, which include an organ made from Furby toys and a triple oscillator synthesiser made out of Nintendo Game Boy consoles.
The musician told the Press Association earlier this week that it would be “absolutely amazing” to win but said he was mainly doing it for the experience.
Israel’s Eurovision entry Noam Bettan, 28, was booed by the crowd during his performance in Tuesday’s semi-final.
He made it to Saturday’s final after receiving a mixed reception from the crowd before his performance began, with some members of the audience shouting, and later booing during the quiet moments of his song Michelle.
A number of protests reportedly took place in the Austrian capital this week over Israel’s inclusion in the contest amid its action in Gaza, with Ireland, Iceland, the Netherlands, Spain and Slovenia all boycotting the event.
Earlier this week, human rights group Amnesty International criticised the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) for its failure to suspend Israel from the song contest, as it did with Russia after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, calling it an act of “cowardice” and a “blatant double standard”.
Israel’s 2025 entrant, Yuval Raphael, received the largest number of votes from the public last May, ultimately finishing runner-up to Austrian winner JJ after the jury votes were taken into account.
Two protesters unsuccessfully attempted to storm the stage and throw paint during her performance last year.
