The number I break Maltese singer Destiny Chukunyere (18) is, if you consult the bookmakers, the favorite to win the competition next month. If she succeeds, she immediately has two beautiful victories to her name. Five years ago she won the Junior Eurovision Song Contest at the age of thirteen with the song Not my soul.

She currently has a 17 percent chance of winning, according to bookmakers. That may not seem like much, but it is the highest of all participants. Catchy and danceable I break in any case. It even looks a bit like Toy, the song with which the Israeli Netta won the competition three years ago. Both songs are about women who rebel against men who oppress and underestimate them. Lyrics like I’m not your baby on I’m not your toy, you stupid boy, are very close together.
