The Greek Cypriot singer who upset the British Love Island declares that she is ready to represent our country in the competition.

Invited to “Our Breakfast” and Fay Skorda, the Greek Cypriot singer Antigoni Buxton – known in England from her participation in the British “Love Island” – appeared and spoke about the claim of Greek representation in Eurovision 2023.

Antigoni mentioned her love for Greece, while when asked about her candidacy for Eurovision 2023, she answered: “I have prepared three songs for the contest, but one is my favorite! It will be a dream for me to represent Greece at Eurovision!”.

He also revealed that the song he has submitted will consist of both Greek and English lyrics!

In an interview with Britain’s Metro recently, Buxton said: “I submit three songs but one in particular is my favourite. It is an up-tempo, powerful, fiery and romantic track with Greek and English lyrics. The combination of modern sounds and Hip-hop production with Greek traditional sounds and melodies is my style.”

Antigone also said that it is very positive that Eurovision 2023 will be held in the UK instead of Ukraine because of the war.
