Earlier today, just before the start of today's first dress rehearsal the press centre was honoured by a very special guest - one of San Marino's robots! Apart from dancing as you can see below, the robot can also speak ánd has a will of its own as first he was a bit shy and wouldn't move, but in the end the gathered press convinced him to give away a special performance.
Jessika and Jenifer are now wearing what are most likely their stage outfits. Jessika's red as her hair - and Jenifer wears a white jumpsuit with a red thin cardigan over it. The vocals are not on point everywhere, especially in the last chorus. Apart from that, San Marino are doing their best to make us laugh again with the texts on the cards the robots heard - now 'this is just a rehearsal' and 'justice for valentina'. What else will we get?!
OK, where to start with San Marino? Jessika is wearing a black cape which is taken off by two dancers, under it she's most likely not yet wearing her stage costume. The robots are back and even got company of a third one, and even better, some signs that cause huge hilarity - saying - "I am not your robot" and "Will you marry me?". Behind them on stage there are many flashing lights.
For the rap part Jenifer joins from under bridge, she looks relaxed but the rap doesn't sound very convincing.
Jessika is supported by backing vocals but it still doesn't sound all too convincing and the choreography by the dancers towards the end is ridiculously cheap. Suited for a workout, but not for a Eurovision stage.
However, huge round applause in the press centre, only not sure whether in the good way....
