Sarah Engels, Germany's Eurovision 2026 singer, joined us for an on-stage interview in English during the Eurofan House x Wiwibloggs event in Vienna. The "Fire" hitmakers discusses how much international support has meant to her...particularly in the face of fierce criticism in Germany. Speaking to our William Lee Adams, she talks about the main changes in her stage show, how family grounds her, the lessons she has learned as a reality star and tabloid favourite, and how she identifies with Satine in Moulin Rouge — a character she's portraying on theatre stages in Germany. She also has a bit of fun with her English, and turns to the many Germans in the audience to translate.
