Sheldon Riley took to the stage in Turin around midnight (AEST) last night for his first Eurovision rehearsal.

According to the official Eurovision blog, “Sheldon’s at the bottom of two flights of giant steps, and his outfit is the opposite of (San Marino’s) Achille Lauro’s – there’s ACRES of it, with a huge fur-trimmed white wedding train that drapes to the floor. He’s also wearing his silver sparkly face and hand jewellery, keeping up the 2022 Eurovision standard for incredible outfits.

“This is a powerful vocal performance from Sheldon – those big notes are blowing the roof off the Pala Alpitour right now.”

Australia performs in Semi Final Two which will be seen Live on SBS 5am AEST Friday May 13.
