Why did you choose this song, what does it mean to you?

I have always admired Loreen so much. Her songs always convey very strong emotions to me. Also, thanks to Fabrizio, I was able to make this version more 'my own' by singing it in my mother tongue.

 

What did you feel when you were nominated by your Fanclub to represent at FANvision?

It was a great surprise, before our last meeting I did not know there was this opportunity, I will always be grateful and enjoy every moment of this incredible experience.

 

Are you excited about coming to Hamburg?

I have never been to Hamburg, but I am very happy to have this opportunity and I can't wait to see this beautiful city! I would love to try the local food because I love to eat and try new things.

 

What are your personal interests?

I have been studying theatre for five years, and I was introduced to this art thanks to an audition I did many years ago for a musical you all know, 'Romeo and Juliet'. They cast me and I played the Prince of Verona.

 

What is your personal connection to the Eurovision Song Contest? Maybe you want to share your first Eurovision memory with us?

Of course, I have been singing since I was a child, everyone in my family (I have three sisters) is in touch with music and each of us has a different voice. When I was younger, I joined a choir, and my teacher decided to assign me a song to sing as a soloist and guess what song she chose? "Euphoria", I said it all. So, this is my first memory with Eurovision. The magnificent Loreen. After this discovery I did my research and at that moment it was the beginning of the end.

Is FANvision the biggest stage/ audience so far for you, what are your musical experiences, and what are your plans for the future?

Is FANvision the biggest stage/ audience so far for you, what are your musical experiences, and what are your plans for the future?
I have had the fortune to sing on various stages, won a few regional competitions and represented Switzerland at the 'Tour Music Fest'. I also have a group with which I enjoy entertaining people at parties. I don't know what the future holds for me, I was taught to keep my feet on the ground, so if my time comes, I will welcome it.

 

What do you do apart from being a Eurovision Fan?

I studied economics and currently work in a commodity trading company.

 

What’s your favourite Eurovision song of all time?

This question is too difficult! Surely one song I will never tire of hearing is 'La Forza' by Elina Nechayeva.

How did your club find your representative?

We chose Jessica Lipari through an internal selection.

 

Does your club bring a lot of supporters for your act?

We’ll try to involve as many people as possible.

 

What do you wish for your contestant?

Jessica is having her first experience at Fanvision but she has had many experiences before, on various stages of excellent standard, so I’m sure she’ll perform very well and people will appreciate her. I have one more reason to trust her, because I’ll present my lyrics through her voice.

 

Your club is in the race for winning FANvision, what’s outstanding about your club?

We are a tightly-knit group that convenes twice a year. The first meeting, held in spring, primarily focuses on voting for songs, while the second, in autumn, always features a Eurovision singer as a guest. Our group continues to grow in membership, and each gathering provides an opportunity to reunite with old friends, make new ones, and immerse ourselves in the Eurovision atmosphere marked by friendship, inclusivity, and enjoyment. We will certainly be pleased to host the FanVision in Italy next year in case of victory, likely at a seaside location.

 

What’s your favourite Eurovision song of all time?

There are many songs, my first choice is “Nel blu dipinto di blu” by Domenico Modugno of 1958, a planetary hit. In the latest editions I appreciated “Rise Like A Phoenix”, “La Forza” (Estonia 2018), “Zero Gravity” (Australia 2019), “Voila” (France 2021) and obiouvsly “Tattoo”.

 

What do you appreciate in particular in a performance in FANvision ? What would you want to see on stage and what might convince you to give a high vote?

First and foremost, I appreciate the skill of the singers in relation to the difficulty of the song performed. When singers manage to fully harness their potential, while also acknowledging their limitations, they have the foundation to gracefully leave the stage amidst applause. I envision a performance as a painting, with the staging serving as the frame and the singer’s voice as the heart of this painting. Then a beautiful painting is showcased at its best within a beautiful frame.
