Eurovision is set to host a real-life witch with a strong 'personal power,' according to Ireland's Bambie Thug.
A devout follower of witchcraft, the singer confessed: "My heritage is pagan and I practise witchcraft. I'm a goth bitch. I am the witch of Eurovision."
With careful thought given to their energy projection, they ensure it isn't negative to avoid any backlash. They claimed: "I spend a lot of time with my energy and thinking about the energy that I am putting out. I make sure it's nothing bad so nothing bad comes back to me. And I live very consciously and very present as much as I can."
Keen on debunking myths surrounding witches, Bambie clarified that people often misinterpret their true nature. They retorted: "People misunderstand that most people have an innate power that they haven't touched into. It's just a personal power. I'm not going out and drinking any blood or anything. I'm just practising good energy."
