50: This is the number of points awarded to France and Zarra by popular vote. However, this lower-than-expected number was quickly overshadowed by an image that was widely talked about on social networks and was still being talked about at the time these lines were written. While the Eurovision 2023 presenters announced the French candidate’s score thanks to voters around the world, La Zarra made a move that was interpreted by some as the middle finger.
“Absolutely not”, reassures French journalists in the press room after the final. Referring to its dual culture, it is simply a “negative generational gesture of frustration used among friends (…)”. Even considering the footage showing him leaving the Eurovision arena before the winner country was announced, it was denied. “We sit for long hours and my bladder is very small. And I had to get up to relieve myself”defends himself.
Despite La Zarra being disappointed not to make it to the Top 3 in the competition as she hoped, despite everything “To him, it’s a rather grandiose scenario that represents France”. He also notes that this experience that allowed him left a winner “open a door” that he intends to immerse himself in. And especially with certain artists encountered in this 2023 edition. “We’ll meet again. There are even those who book a flight to Paris. We will work together and we will have incredible new collaborations!”
The singer, who thanked Alexandre Redde-Amiel (head of the French delegation) for having surrounded and protected him so well during these long months, concludes his words by reminding another source of satisfaction after this adventure. “People sing Francophonie! they were singing Clearly when I don’t write easy sentences. Unbelievable ! I think we’re the winners with that.”she exclaims, smiling.
