At last! One year after seeing how Chanel Terrero became the star of the festival that precedes Eurovision, the Benidorm Fest 2023 kicks off her. For the second year in a row, the city of Alicante has hosted the RTVE music contest that will decide who of the 18 contestants takes the direct flight to Liverpool next May to try to win over all the Eurofans.
In recent weeks, the artists have presented their songs to us, they have shown us their covers and they have been rehearsing and leaving their skin on stage. Now yes! The Benidorm Fest 2023 begins.
The music contest has kicked off this Tuesday, January 31 with the 1st semi-final of the Benidorm Fest where nine artists will face each other to get a place in the grand finale on Saturday, February 4.
First it will be the turn of Sharrone, Agoney, Aritz, Megara, Alice Wonder, Meler, Fusa Nocta, Sofía Martín and the Twin Melody and, on Thursday, February 2, it will be that of Alfred García, Blanca Paloma, E’FEMME, Famous, José Otero, Karmento, Raccky Ripper, Siderland and Vicco.
Mónica Naranjo says goodbye to her long hair
The night kicked off with one of the presenters of the program, Mónica Naranjo, performing with an iconic song by Dana International, Diva. The artist has appeared on stage in a black tunic covering her hair with a hat and only revealing her face.
Monica has given quite a show on stage that has left the entire public speechless. But what has attracted attention has been the moment in which she has removed her hat and has let us see her great change of look.
The singer has said goodbye to her long hair and has shown her new haircut: short and platinum blonde. Is it a wig? The truth is that we don’t know, but as the title of the song says, she is a true diva on stage.
