After his online chat with his fans, Sarbel, the Greek representative in this year�s Eurovision Song Contest in Helsinki appeared yesterday on the famous show �OLA� on the Greek channel Antenna. The host of the show Themos Anastasiades asked the Greek entrant everything about his participation to the contest.

During the chat organised by ERT, Sarbel appeared on line at 18:00 local time and started the chat with a big “Yassou” to everybody and answered almost every question made by the fans. Esctoday.com was there and Sarbel answered our questions.Our first question was about the choreography and if there will be any tricks or if he is going to use any instruments like Helena Paparizoudid 2 years ago. Sarbel’s answer was clear: there will be no instruments on stage but there will be something very “warm”, while rumours are talking about Sarbel’s using fire and fireworks on Hartwaal Arena.
Afterwards,we asked himwhat would have liked to be if he wasn’t a singer and he told us that he would have loved to be a vet. In the question about which country he would wish to win the Eurovision Song Contest if he doesn't win it, Sarbel answered that he wishes for Cyprus to be the winner , after all, Cyprus is one of Sarbel’s favourite entries as he declared afterwards.
He also revealed that he is planning some concertsin Germany this summer and we also found out that his hobbies are swimming, tennis, windsurfing and girls. Finally, he referred to his absolutely great relation he has with ERT, the Greek broadcaster, his hopes to rank in the top 10 and, to our last question-dictatedby this reporter's sons-before the chat was over, Sarbel told esctoday.com that he prefers Batmanto Spiderman.
In the end, Sarbel, expressed his happiness and joy talking with his fans, thanked everyone that participated to the chat and promised to give his best in Helsinki.

Sarbel also appeared on the Greek show Ola last night. He said that his stylist in Helsinki will be Lakis Gavalas and not Nikos Apostolopoulos, giving an end to rumours this way. The Greek representative declared that he has no fear regarding his stage performance and one more time he admitted that he likes the Cypriot and the Bulgarian Eurovision entries. He never thought that he was going to be the winner at the national final since all the polls were predicting Christos Dantes or Tamta. But Sarbel’s appearances on the Greek television don’t end here.He is going to appear tomorrow morning, the 3rd of May,on Eleni Menegaki 's morning show on Alpha TV where he will performe his "Maria", whilein the afternoon on the Greek National Beauty Contest that will take place in Athens.

Sarbel will travel to Helsinkion May 5th, having his first rehearsal on the 7th of May. Greece is participating directly to the final due to Anna’s Vissi 9th place last year in Athens.
