On Saturday evening at the Sanremo Festival, Italy selected Mahmood and his song “Soldi” for the 2019 Eurovision. Mahmood, whose real name is Alessandro Mahmoud and is of Egyptian descent, will include a few lines in Arabic in the mostly Italian song. While the winner of the Sanremo Festival is not required to appear at the Eurovision, Mahmood immediately confirmed that he will be attending this year.Also on Saturday, Montenegro selected its Eurovision 2019 contestant: the group D-moll, who will perform “Heaven.”While Iceland has yet to pick its act for this year’s competition, one of its top contenders is already making headlines.Hatari, a techno band that has already qualified for the finals of the Söngvakeppnin show which picks Iceland’s entry, challenged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a wrestling match. Hatari said it was challenging the Israeli prime minister “to a friendly match of traditional Icelandic trouser-grip wrestling, or glíma.” The band said the match would take place “on May 19 at the time of your choosing” and include a “neutral UN-sponsored referee.”The prize? If Hatari wins, it will be allowed to “settle within your borders, establishing the first ever Hatari-sponsored liberal BDSM colony on the Mediterranian [sic] coast.” And if Netanyahu wins, “The Israeli government will be given full political and economic control of South-Icelandic Island municipality Vestmannaeyjar.”Netanyahu has not publicly responded to the challenge.
