Tony Armstrong said he was excited to be stepping into the Eurovision realm.

“I’m so excited to jump into the world of Eurovision with the one and only Courtney Act who has already taken me under her wing. I’m definitely not envious of her brilliance and my jealousy won’t make it on screen I promise.

“Eurovision holds such a special place in so many hearts around the world. I look forward to being a part of the spectacle along with Courtney!”

Courtney Act said she looking forward to sharing her thoughts of each of the perfomers taking to the stage.

“I was not prepared for how much I would enjoy Eurovision last year- and this year I’m back, now with everyone’s favourite IT man, Tony Armstrong (who I can confirm is just as delightful and dashing in real life as you’d expect). I’ll be offering my commentary expertise on every costume reveal, key change, wind machine and pyro moment I know Switzerland will deliver.

“Tony’s already taught me a thing or two about team sport energy, and I’ll be returning the favour with a crash course in camp!” she added.

This year Australia is being represented by Western Australian artist Go-Jo with the song Milkshake Man.
