OMG He is so handsome o.O ..and is also my fav to win! Greetings from Portugal!!

[@joancamo]

+nacht98 It's a shame that Portugal is not taking part this year so you could give France another double 12s :D

[@nacht98]

+joancamo for sure France and Spain would get top marks from Portugal, but I suspect this time would be France to get 12, this is an amazing song.

[@shamisivasubramanian9498]

"I'm quite mixed up, but it's going to be fine." That sentence tells me everything I need to know about Amir. He's a gem.

[@hetauu]

I hope we're looking at our winner here! Humble, talented, funny and most importantly his song is amazing.

[@tooniitz]

This is the best interview ever in Eurovision. You pulled out all the info we wanted to know and he gave the best accurate answers. He seems so close, straightforward and a nice person. Thank you both!

[@santam4898]

I feel blessed after watching this! He is so genuine, so humble, so shy and so so adorable.. I'm in love!💕 Go Amir! I have no doubts that I vote as much as I can for him in final!

[@justzigz4586]

this would be an amazing staging - green screen behind him with different things on it then when the bridge finishes the green screen could drop and 5 people behind him dancing going crazy anyone else agree?

[@OMGItsLera]

There are 3 winners this year - France, Spain and Russia :)

[@jrv1326]

Italy too

[@GabrielMorcar]

+Javier Akinde totally agree!

[@przemolinhom.2877]

And Poland too

[@juanmaeurofan4240]

agree

[@adrianborg5460]

France is a winner. The other 2 winners are Malta and Australia. I think Malta will be the overall winner though.

[@marhoho2237]

Top 5 for sure

[@Rigspelt4ever]

Great interview, I've been looking forward to this!

[@DimaH2O]

he's so cute oh god

[@escinvasion3754]

France top 10 straight!

[@franciscorustrian8553]

The only bad thing about Amir is that he has a wife!!!! Lol

[@GabrielMorcar]

He is so kind!!! wow!!! Now is my fave!!!

[@EdAPC]

So charming!!!! I think I'm in love. Love Will, too!! Awesome interview.

[@alessandrog2834]

The best this year and the sweetest too! Best of luck to France - from Malta xx

[@SuperRuud123]

Very nice interview! He is sooo kind!

[@avigailchagay7876]

Israel love you

[@CarmenCastro17scorpion]

He is so adorable. His voice, his songs, he deserves the best...this interview was special. I liked it!!! ✨✨

[@anabel9255]

OMG! He's so nice!

[@floarmaselu5936]

The best interview this year 😁 great job wiwi, you rock✌ Amir is the best, I am praying he will win #TeamFrance #TeamAmir #Paris2017

[@jlugoholt]

He is amazing, he reminds me a lot of Loreen in his mood but Amir is more open with the press and likes to speak, Loreen was more shy and short answer girl. (I love her in that way ;)) I love Amir's song and him too ;)

[@khlo0ody976]

interview amir you'll get 17 minutes . interview rykka and you'll get 3 minutes.

[@elirandan3064]

+Khlo0ody97 so right

[@Nutzername92a]

+Khlo0ody97 This happens almost every year with the native English speakers :D You expect them to talk a lot, but then they only answer with single short sentences...

[@khlo0ody976]

+Nutzername92a but rykka lived in canada so english is her language .

[@Nutzername92a]

Khlo0ody97 That was my point :) It's quite surprising that some of the native speakers aren't comfortable at speaking.

[@mrmau04]

He's such a nice person... So humble!!!!! And I like his song!! He's in my top 3.... Greetings from México 😁

[@toppop4875]

Amazing interview.

[@sdclifford]

How people can rate Russia over this I don't know. He's an utterly charming performer, a singer who just makes you smile and he has a simple instantly catchy song. I'm really beginning to think France could go all the way...

[@Janneta29]

Totally agree !

[@adi0253]

Good interview maybe the top 10 for France this year. Good luck Amir !

[@carlosgarrido350]

I hope France would be in the top 10 minimun but I prefer to see this country in the the 5th place

[@eschonduras1808]

I'd rather see France winning XD

[@user-lu5lp4rn7r]

He is so awesome!!! I hear him talking and I just can't stop smiling!! There is something in the way he talks

[@Iolanthe333]

What a cutie! I hope he wins.

[@escloire4642]

Oui Oui to Wiwi !! Chapeau pour tout le travail/Work et le temps/Time que vous consacrez au concours !! Best Work !! J'adore !! GO AMIR !! @escloire

[@VasHappenln]

His speech is really good he's modest and he really wants to enjoy the show, not here just to win (hello Sergay)

[@vaidarocyte4195]

agree

[@TaurusGirl22]

Hope he wins ! He's underrated and the russian entry is MUCH overrated, though i like Sergey as singer and performer.

[@smet014]

That's right. I hope France wins the competition.

[@daniellevandermeer1251]

+Alex Baas me too

[@horilaw424]

I agree so much

[@darimabatueva-islam7036]

Ii'm in love with this song. It deserves the first place!

[@kodawi]

One word: ADORABLE !

[@AdrianKavanaghMaynooth]

Great interview. Really interesting and thoughtful guy

[@bababaubas]

*accidentally watches the intro 6 times*

[@diladeveci5142]

2 of my favs yaassss slay william

[@Pomeikukumari]

He is so sweet and humble, great interview! France or Croatia for the win!

[@genoganiza6596]

Adore his modesty! He's like the Tom Hiddleston of Eurovision!

[@aijntgrkglfnker5131]

+Gen Oganiza come on. in waaaaay cutter

[@genoganiza6596]

+Aijntgrk Glfnker Totally agree!

[@troblerone4190]

He is the best

[@eu-RON-vision]

so adorable! both of you :)

[@lcdoalejandrorico]

I Love Him!

[@jmcrjunior]

He's a lovely person and the interview was so fun! J'adore ses chansons et sa voix est magnifique xD

[@maximet1746]

I'm so proud to be french this year! I totaly adore her! Allez Amir, on est avec toi, tu vas le renvoyer à Moscou fissa le Sergey!

[@aw9713]

+Maxime T Ahah j'espère. Surtout que sa chanson est ringarde.

[@fandeceline100]

+Maxime T Cher Maxime, en étant plus diplomate, je dirais "let's send Sergey Lazarev back to the 90's ;)

[@santam4898]

Then that's why he is so attracted to Barei xD Spanish blood :D

[@stephengill7746]

Very nice\humble guy makes the song seem even better

[@Janneta29]

AMIIIIR ❤️

[@nobelnoble8655]

Mr. Amir my friend who is Sephardic Jew shared with me recently that she is very proud of you. And I can ad that you made not only her happy, but Israel, France & and all those who like your song & already are singing it at home, at school, at work, even during the date as a duet😃😂

[@jackodonovan6536]

He has to win!! France, Croatia, Hungary or Iceland!

[@enroute.eurovision]

+Jack O Donovan Great selection ! I will add Latvia :)

[@jackodonovan6536]

ESC Chris Chillout That was the one I forgot about! Russia is the favourite at the moment, but I don't see the hype around it. It's probably just cause it is Russia and they always do well

[@daniellevandermeer1251]

I HOPE SO YOUR WIN AMIR LOVE YOU 💖💖💖💖💖 LOVE FROM THE NETHERLANDS
