Ukrainian singer Tina Karol, who represented Ukraine at the Eurovision Song Contest in Athens in 2006, surprised the audience with her simple look. Amidst all the bright performances, seeing the star without makeup, wearing jeans and a hula hoop from the 2000s was unexpected for many Euro fans.
The artist sang the song "Roses" while sitting on a chair and got very emotional. The performance was shown during a broadcast recorded on February 2.
The artist appeared in her usual stylish wide-cut jeans and a black sweatshirt with her hair tied back.
Tina Karol wore a laconic hoop on her head, which was popular with fashionistas in the 2000s, and not a gram of makeup on her face. The artist didn't even add any accessories that would set off her look.
"The song tells about deep feelings that reflect the social drama of today," Suspilne wrote.
"Respect that she came out without makeup. She came on stage as she was found at home. It was not planned. But it's so cute," "It was so nice to see Tina and Yulia together," "Maybe Tina for Eurovision?" users wrote.
Tina herself later commented on her unexpected image, assuring that it was a challenge for her.
"Real sincerity! It was my challenge/choice/desire to perform without makeup and concert outfit on the air of the National Selection for Eurovision. I wanted to focus only on the piercing vocals and the deep meaning of the song," the artist shared.
We'd like to remind you that Jerry Heil and Alyona Alyona, who have the best chance of winning, according to the bookmakers, sang "Teresa & Maria" and almost split the jury.
