JusticiaEurovision 2009 and Greek television
March 19th 2009 10:46
Sakis Rouvas is deep in preparation to represent Greece in Eurovision 2009. He will be singing 'This is our night'....we certainly hope it is! I'm not too sure about this song, it has its catchy moments but it's not mind-blowingly brilliant. However, it's a good song and should be enough to secure Greece a good place. Sakis brought Greece home the third place with the song, 'Shake It' in 2004. Kalomoira did it again in 2008, winning third place with 'Secret Combination. What can I say, we all want that first place again but we'll see how it goes on the night. Eurovision is after all a very unpredictable competition and many of the countries also vote with a political agenda in mind. Good luck Sakis!
Travelling into the world of Greek television (a frightening venture at times) Niko Moutsina and Katerina Zarifi are no longer hosting ANT1's flailing morning show Proinos Kafes. Apparently it was a mutual decision between them and management. Hmm, I'm sure that the huge decline in ratings had nothing to do with it. Further, singer Giorgos Lianos and Despina Kambouri have taken over, on a temporary basis. The ratings have since improved quite dramatically. They've even come close to coming out of third place and into second. Not a bad effort at all.
In other morning shows, Eleni Menegaki is still the queen of this timeslot and rightfully so. Gregory Arnaoutoglou is great as always, and coming in at second place. There have also been rumours circulating about him and his co-host Nadia Boule, something which seems to keep the viewers coming back for more.
Do the gossip magazines in Greece have nothing else to do other than create stories about Gregory and all of his female co-hosts? They have linked him to almost every female co-host he has worked with. Yes, we know he's a bit of a player but not that much! The only time the rumours have actually been true were when they were linking him to his ex-fiancee Rania Thraskia! I have not believed the rumours from the beginning but a magazine has printed, from a supposedly reputable source, that Gregory and Nadia are officially an item. If so, I hope his ex-Rania sees it, and sees what kind of beauty she's been replaced with. Nadia is young, beautiful and talented. She's certainly an up and coming presenter and is doing very well currently on Omorfos Kosmos to Proi.
Talking about Thraskia, she and her husband grace the cover of this week's OK! magazine. I do use the word grace loosely. There's no doubt that Rania can do it herself, she's looking lovely and apparently she's having a boy, but seriously...the husband? He looked old when she married him less than a year ago and now he's gone and grown himself a nice stubbly beard...the grey/white hairs are everywhere. Come on, the baby will be born and immediately think it's Grandpa!
And on that catty note ends this weeks venture into the world of Greek television, music and gossip.
