The 2 minutes for Celine?  
If I were Celine, I wouldn't participate.

We don’t know if the 2 minutes is accurate… there’s no way they are only giving her 2 minutes for a hypothetical performance, they would give her more time. 2 minutes is certainly a video message. Maybe they are holding out 2 minutes FOR SURE for the message and if she’s able to perform they’ll scrap the 2 minute message and add more time for a performance.

Frankly, I’m posting things I’m seeing just to get it on here for reading, but I’m not believing anything at this point.

Does this mean she will announce Swiss points? As the spokesperson usually announces them outside of the venue with the crowd.

That sounds like the final confirmation of a video message only

It’s all so odd… it’s like we know less about her condition now after the documentary/ and interviews. So weird, she’s fine to sing in Saudi Arabia, but now not so much. It’s all strange,

[Shamrock_1982]

I’m unable to listen to the interview at work.

So… based on the tweet.

Is this a video message?

A live satellite link up like the 90’s?

Or is she performing in Basel from an outside location?

[anewdayhascome]

If they literally confirmed something that includes her that is happeninng outside the stadium, then singing can be already ruled out as all singing is taking place on one stage.

I also don't get the Saudi Arabia. I mean normally I don't care about Eurovision and under regular circumstances back in the days I even wouldn't like to appear there (and given her silence about it and negative attitude towards NPPSM even more).

BUT the Eurovision MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE than Saudi Arabia because not only is it connected to her own career, but more importantly it is not any Eurovision (like Timberlake did his performance out of the blue), it is exactly in the country for which she won and you know how rare it is for a country to win again in this contest. So she really should do it if she could do Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia was a (playback) show, but Eurovision is the biggest music show in the world with millions of viewers worldwide. So Celine has to deliver.

[anewdayhascome]

The Olympics was with billions of viewers so Eurovision is way less important. Again is she could do the Olympics and Saudi Arabia last year, nothing (but her health) could prevent her from participating.

And people do sometimes playback in the Eurovision too

Or she really doesn’t give a crap about Eurovision and didn’t want to say plain no, so now Everytime they turn something down they have the excuse (though legit) to say health permitting.

I don’t really remember Celine really caring about it since she won. Just saying.

[anewdayhascome]

True but IF (and it's a big if) anything was really brewing, they need big exposure. They already lost the momentum after The Olympics, so this is their second chance. There isn't any other really big event that could bring her back in the spotlight.

Unless there is literally nothing coming because again if she was healthy ENOUGH to do anything musically (a song, an album, a performance, an interview, let's forget about a concert for the time being), why would they keep silence for a whole year? Almost a deafening silence. There is no other logical explanation for it, none. She could do musical things without doing a concert/residency/tour.

But will Celine fly to Basel only to announce the points for Switzerland from the outside?��

I dont think so

[stevo]

She went to Saudi and lipped clearly only for the pay check, so that had nothing to do whatsoever about making any statement. Non-fans and people who don’t follow the Fashion industry won’t have seen that that even happened

[KyleVan41]

Saudi Arabia paid her huge money.  Only driving factor in my opinion.  Sad but true

[No1IrishFan]

Interesting from the podcast - looks like the being in Basel but not at the venue comment just means she could be in Basel but decide health wise she isn’t up to it on the day. Plan sounds like it’s still the main show but totally tbc if she’ll do it

Maybe but honestly, I think she cares about the fashion houses more than Eurovision as sad as that may be. I actually thought the probability of the MET would be higher than Eurovision, time will tell since she skipped one already.

[KyleVan41]

Ok I just listened to that podcast clip and to me , she’s going but they’re not confirming it for hype and the possibility of her health.

Crazy !!! My guts are a mess lol

[mirage]

I don't get why they just won't confirm her onstage performing appearance, with the side note 'she can cancel if her health doesn't allow her)

Instead of all this 'maybe she is there' 'we are still in talks'
I mean the surprise factor is already gone, so why not make it all clear for all of us.

My contact at Eurovision tells me the same for now.
Only the video message was clear, but whether that's part of plan A or B, he doesn't know.

I think it’s on their interest to keep the hype around this “mystery”… a lot of people are writing articles, tweets… they say it in the podcast, they are glad about the rumors and speculations.

Could be why the keep this notion going that Celine could be there, for all we know she could’ve turned it down but they want us to keep wating to build up hype and ratings. I’m not holding my breath, personally waiting for Celine’s gravy recipe still.

I know, but in my opinion confirming her makes the same amount of press and interest.

I agree

[ryba]

Why would she be in Basel if she won't appear? That doesn't make any sense. Also, remember that she was in London recently. So it's not unlikely..

[Nmj]

What’s London had to do with anything?

Here’s the more random crap they are posting….
This crap is laughable…

Nobody better say it’s an Easter egg, and that “May Flowers”  means something is coming, nope more random nonsense I assure you.

I seen your tweet to get answers about the year long silence, do you have anyone who could help with that? At least if they could reach out to management and ask for a update of any kind?

[Shamrock_1982]

I was hoping for more fan comments to it to get more views but I tagged aeg vegas in it like I did with the apple tweet.

I still have hope that we will get some type of update by this time next month but if not I have a few email addresses to try and reach out to .

The Olympics was not odd in my opinion. They all lipped. Celine lipped in 1996 at her prime vocals, which says it all.

The Saudi Arabia was odd because other performers sang live, and that show wasn't really that important that it had to be perfect. Was actually a great opportunity to try sing live and see how it goes.
