Rehearsals are now well and truly underway in the city of Tel Aviv, which will be hosting this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Today sees the first day of rehearsals, with the first half of the first semi-final evening taking to the impressive stage of Expo Tel Aviv.

Eight countries are all set to make their debut onstage, 9 days before the live show of the first semi-final. Following their rehearsal, a Meet & Greet session will be coming next. These countries are Belgium, Georgia, Australia, Iceland, Estonia, Portugal, Greece and San Marino.

Let’s… Wake up with the first rehearsing act of the day, who is none other than Belgium’s hopeful Eliot who is representing Belgium.

Eliot wears black skinny jeans with a dark blue jacket. The jacket has overlaying orange straps, which create a striking effect. This look can be described as both industrial, as the straps are almost like a harness, or tribal, as the overlaying effect creates an almost-ethnic looking pattern.

Eliot is flanked by two drummers/dancers, who both wear dark jeans and purple t-shirts with orange peace emblems on the front.
