Sweden's Loreen became just the second performer to win the competition more than once, clinching victory with pop ballad 'Tattoo' and cementing her legacy at the kitsch and wildly celebrated music contest.
Sweden's Loreen has won the Eurovision Song Contest for a second time, earning a historic triumph at an extravagant and crowd-pleasing show held in Liverpool, United Kingdom, on behalf of Ukraine.
The show was held in Britain for the first time in more than two decades, after the country -- which came second last year -- stepped in to handle hosting duties on behalf of 2022 winners Ukraine. Hosting honors will go to winners Sweden next year. Sweden's winning act, Loreen, told CNN ahead of the final that her first victory was"one of the most important moments in my life."
But she had to beat strong competition from Finland's rapper Käärijä, whose energetic performances of"Cha Cha Cha" throughout the week have wowed fans and made him a strong contender to win the crown.Around the host city of Liverpool, Eurovision fans without tickets rammed into venues to watch the show on big screens, many of them waving Ukrainian flags.
