Oslo, Norway -

Hera Björk from Iceland was the last one to perform in Telenor Arena during Monday’s rehearsals. The disco song Je Ne Sais Quoi is closing the first Semi-Final in Oslo, and Hera hopes for an up-tempo knock out. At the rehearsal, she revealed a new, wine-red dress to be worn for the contest.

The performance of Je Ne Sais Quoi started with Hera standing alone, surrounded by smoke, with five backing vocalists in the shadows behind. For the second verse, two of the female backing singers joined Hera in the spotlight for some minor choreography. Hera and the three female backing vocalists wore their all-new wine-red stage dresses this day, but the make-up and hair wasn’t ready for this first rehearsal.

In the backdrop, the multitude of lamps formed a starry night sky with a purple hue, evolving into red and white lights pulsating in the backdrop. In the second part of the song they turned light blue and white. The quality of the sound has received much praise from the competing delegations. However, discussions are now being held to change the output of the sound from the Icelandic backing singers.

Iceland had a fan following attending the rehearsal, cheering loudly for Hera and the team on stage. After completing the last run-through of the song, Hera and the rest gave them a cheerful wave and a huge bow.
