Headdress

Joan Franka appears on stage with a large Indian outfit during her participation in the Eurovision Song Contest, despite criticism of the outfit. This became apparent on Tuesday in Baku, where the singer rehearsed for the first time.

The ornament that 22-year-old Franka wears is larger than the one she had on her head at the National Song Contest. The headdress reaches up to her buttocks. Joan previously said that she always wears a feather in her hair. “The feather represents the freedom to be who I am.”

The rehearsal also made it clear that Franka plays a white guitar. She is accompanied by four musicians and a background singer.

Franka will sing her self-written song You and Me next Thursday during the second final of the song festival. The grand final is two days later.
