Today, the sad news reached us that Pearl Carr passed away. Carr was the female half of the duo Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson. The two married in 1955 and started singing from then on. In 1959, they were chosen to represent the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest with the song “Sing little birdie”. They reached a 2nd place. A year later, they attempted to represent their country again, but their songs were not chosen.
Years later, in 1988, they both performed in the Westend musical “Follies”. At the end of this tour, in 1990, they decided to retire from showbussines. In 2018, Teddy Johnson passed away, followed by Pearl Carr today. Carr was 96 years old.
Eurovision 2026
🇦🇺 Delta Goodrem represents Australia
📷 EBU Delta Goodrem will represent Australia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 with her song Eclipse. SBS confirmed the news on Sunday 1 March and sent one of Australia’s biggest pop stars to Vienna for the contest’s 70th edition. Delta Goodrem Eurovision 2026 is already a talking point for Eurovision fans. She wrote the entry with Ferras Alqaisi, Jonas Myrin and Michael Fatkin. Fatkin also produced the track. At the same time, the music video premiered on the Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel. The team filmed the clip among the sand dunes of Newcastle in New South Wales. That release gave Australia a strong push ahead of the contest in May. Delta Goodrem brings experience to the Eurovision stage. She signed her first record deal at 15 and broke through with Innocent Eyes, one of the highest-selling albums in Australian history. The album spent seven and a half months at number one and produced five chart-topping singles. Across her career, she has sold more than nine million albums worldwide. She also scored five number one albums, nine number one singles and 12 ARIA Awards. In recent years, she launched her own label, ATLED Records, which marked a new chapter. Delta Goodrem Eurovision 2026 therefore pairs star power with a proven track record. Australia will perform in the second half of the second semi-final on Thursday 14 May in Vienna. That slot gives Delta Goodrem a route to make an early impact. According to SBS, 2026 felt like the right moment to send such an iconic artist, especially in the year that marks Eurovision’s 70th contest. Delta Goodrem Eurovision 2026 now carries big expectations, and Eclipse gives Australia an entry backed by star power. With a famous artist, strong chart history and a cinematic launch, Australia enters the season with clear momentum.
