A water fountain for Waterline
Baku, May 14 (AZERTAC). For the second year in a row, Jedward are representing Ireland. This year they perform the song Waterline, and are hoping to do as well, if not better, than they did last year with Lipstick.
Before they made a return appearance to the Eurovision stage, we caught up with the Head of Delegation from RTE, Julian Vignoles, to check on preparations before their first rehearsal in Baku.
"We are just getting everything sorted out, like make up etc, and the boys are getting very excited. We have a water fountain, and I'm very nervous to see how it works, and that everything moves when it is supposed to move, and that everyone is calm and takes it easy, I hope everything works well for the first rehearsal."
He continued "I think it is easier for the boys this year, as they know the ropes from last year, and we also have one of our backing singers back from last year."
Jedward make Irish Eurovision Song Contest history as for the first time Ireland sends the same act two years in a row.
