Sam Ryder has issued a voting plea to fans a across Europe as he aims to pull off a shock win at Eurovision and bookies and fans still have no real idea just where he will finish on Saturday night.
Before he was even announced as the UK’s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest, Sam was already known the world over, having a following of over 12 million on TikTok, after he became something of a lockdown sensation. And he’s relying on fans who aren’t in the UK to send some votes his way as he goes for glory in Saturday’s Eurovision final with his track Space Man.
While some fans are still trying not to be too optimistic about his chances, the Eurovision final running order has put Sam in a strong soothing, with him performing in 22nd position, after well tipped entries like ones from Norway’s Subwoolfer, Spain’s Chanel, favourites to win Ukraine’s Kalush Orchestr a and Sweden’s Cornelia Jakobs and before the ‘dark horse,’ Serbia.
