Country-pop girl group Remember Monday will fly the flag for the UK with their entry What The Hell Just Happened?
Outlandish entries include Icelandic brothers Væb who are dead ringers for X Factor comedy twins Jedward — and Irish entry Emmy, oddly from Norway, singing about an, er, DEAD DOG in outer space on their track Laika Party.
But Eurovision producers are also on red alert for X-rated shenanigans.
Risque acts Malta's Miriana Conte whose song Serving was censored over its original title Kant — which means 'vocals' in Maltese but sounds awkwardly like a certain British four-letter word.
Producers now fear the audience at the St. Jakobshalle arena in Basel, Switzerland will make mischief by chanting the forbidden word.
One fan said on X: 'The whole arena will be screaming, 'Kant!' in her honour.'
Another said: 'They can ban the word 'Kant' but people will scream in the arena like it's the last word they're saying in the world. You wish you could stop us!'
Oh, and Miriana is due to sing just BEFORE the 9pm watershed during Thursday's semi-final, which will air live on BBC One.
That will follow tonight's first semi-final at 8pm on BBC One, ahead of the final on Saturday.
Miriana has even been giving out to fans skimpy thongs featuring her song title on them, to promote a performance that will see her bouncing suggestively up and down on a giant inflatable ball while images of legs opening and closing flash up behind her.
Meanwhile Finland's Erika Vikman, 32, will also complicate your evening if tuning in with Mum and Dad — as she pole-dances in racy Latex while belting out her track Ich Komme — which translates as: 'I'm coming.'
UK's Eurovision 2025 act revealed a year after Olly Alexander came 18th and was branded 'a flop'
Erika will peform in German but, in translated lyrics, sings: 'You're full of stamina, hit meе once again, grab my ass. And when you want more love, just shout 'encore', and baby, I'm coming.'
Australia's entry, Go-Jo, will also give show hosts Rylan and Scott Mills plenty to snigger about as he delivers his song Milkshake Man packed with cheeky innuendo.
He sings: 'Come and take a sip from my special cup, I heard that you could use a little pick-me-up.'
In the chorus, he then adds: 'I can tell you want a taste of the milkshake man.'
He also rips his top off — not to be outdone by Armenia's Parg who performs his party piece Survivor while topless.
Bookies' favourite Sweden, represented by comedy trio Kaj and their track Bara Bada Bastu, will give fans an eyeful, too — as men dressed only in towels dance in what appears to be a sauna.
A Eurovision source said: 'There are lots of risque acts this year and anything could happen. There are plenty of rehearsals but a lot of the acts have precarious outfits and you can never quite predict what will happen on the night.'
Ten acts will go through from each semi-final, to compete in the final alongside host country Switzerland and Eurovision's Big Five — France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK.
Country-pop girl group Remember Monday will fly the flag for the UK with their entry What The Hell Just Happened?
Band member Charlotte Steele said: 'The Eurovision community and all of the people that we've met, we feel like all of that we're taking with us.
'We genuinely feel so grateful and so honoured to be welcomed with such open arms into this community and we want to meet every single person out in Basel.
'We're just so so happy to be a part of this and we will look back on this as the most incredible experience of our entire lives.'

Princess Eugenie enjoys sun-soaked holiday with A-lister 'brother she never had'
Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda were hosted by their friends Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank at their home in Portugal While many royals are enjoying their summer holidays away from the UK, Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank are hosting their A-list friends Robbie Williams and his wife, American actress Ayda Field, for a sun-soaked holiday at their second home in Portugal. Eugenie, the youngest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, splits her time between her home in Kensington Palace home, Ivy Cottage, and the second holiday home the family own in Portugal. The celebrity couple and the princess shared a series of snaps on Instagram, as Ayda posted images of the friends bare-faced and smiling after a day in the sunshine. It comes after reports of William and Kate Middleton's fears over move with kids after Royal Family 'bad blood'. Ayda captioned her post: 'Obrigada', which means 'thank you' in Portuguese - again suggesting that Eugenie was playing hostess. The families were snapped seeing the sights of the Portuguese town, playing time at the beach and indulging in a spot of golf. Eugenie has been close with Robbie and Ayda for many years, with the couple's daughter Teddy even being picked as a flower girl at Eugenie's 2018 wedding to Jack. Eugenie and her husband are said to know the Williams family very well, with the princess reportedly viewing Robbie Williams as 'the brother she never had'. Robbie and Ayda were first introduced to Eugenie by her mother, Sarah Ferguson, in 2011 after Fergie and Ayda reportedly bonded during a shopping day in St. Barts. The two women got on well enough for the Williams clan to invite Fergie and her daughters to their house in Los Angeles, and by May of 2011 the family was on close enough terms with the Royals to watch the Eurovision Song Contest at Robbie's house in Wiltshire. Eugenie and Jack own a luxurious villa at the exclusive CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club in Comporta, located on the Alentejan coastal strip, where prices start from a staggering £3.6 million. The couple moved there when Jack began working as a marketing, sales and promotion expert for the super stunning resort. The princess, who has previously shared family photos from their time in Portugal, opened up about her sons' love of the ocean in an exclusive interview with HELLO! last year, as she spoke of August and Ernest, saying: "They love swimming." "The sea in Portugal's a little bit rougher. So we've got our feet in, but Augie is a fish. He literally loves it and we have whales and dolphins all across the walls."

BBC Homes Under The Hammer host warns 'that's not a good sign' as she spots 'costly' issue
BBC Homes Under The Hammer host warns 'that's not a good sign' as she spots 'costly' issue Homes Under The Hammer's Jacqui Joseph opened the front door of a property in Norfolk and instantly knew there was a major problem Before even setting foot inside the property, Homes Under The Hammer presenter Jacqui Joseph encountered a significant problem that could deter potential buyers. In the opening sequence of the repeat episode broadcast on BBC One on Monday, August 4, Jacqui was seen exploring the seaside resort of Hunstanton, situated on the north-western shoreline of Norfolk and famed for its stunning beaches. Jacqui informed viewers that the seafront was merely a short stroll from the semi-detached Victorian, four-bedroom house she was featuring on the programme. Initially, she was impressed by the property's "grand" appearance, noting that it had an auction guide price of £200,000 plus. After offering her expert opinion on the exterior and praising the Victorian features, off-road parking, and the considerable size of the red brick, Jacqui was eager to see the interior. But upon opening the front door, she noticed something unusual. Stepping through the entrance, she pointed out the brick at the bottom of the white PVC front door and remarked, "Oh, that's not a good sign. You've got some dry rot there, but that could be because of the step outside," reports Norfolk Live. Jacqui knew straight away that something wasn't quite right Homes Under the Hammer presenter marks huge milestone on BBC show READ MORE: Venturing further into the hallway, Jacqui quickly realised the problem was more extensive than she initially thought. Attempting to enter the front room, she exclaimed in shock, "Oh, wow, there are no floors." The property expert confessed, "I'm not sure what has happened here, but obviously the floors had to be removed for a reason. "It could have been due to some serious damp, it could have just been rotten floorboards, it could be woodworm. But also, the plaster has been taken off the walls here." Upon further inspection of the house, Jacqui concluded: "There was obviously some serious damp here." Jacqui hadn't even stepped inside the property when she spotted a major issue Despite the significant challenges presented, Jane managed to secure the property at an online auction with a winning bid of £232,000, marking her first foray into auction buying. Jane admitted that upon initial viewing, she and her family – her husband and son – had underestimated the extent of work required on the property. The new owners of the semi-detached house had no intention of flipping or renting it out; they envisaged the Victorian dwelling as their future holiday home. During their appearance on the show with local builder Ben, they confirmed Jacqui's earlier concerns, noting that the property suffered from damp issues due to cracked external render. Jane and Ben confirmed Jacqui's suspicions (Image: BBC) They further discovered that the lack of ventilation beneath the floorboards was another significant and expensive issue that needed rectification. With Ben's assistance, Jane realised that the house required a complete overhaul, far beyond the simple updates of a new kitchen, bathroom, and a fresh coat of paint they had initially planned. Fresh flooring, skirting boards, plastered walls, exterior rendering, a complete electrical rewiring, new radiators, and a boiler. Jane had allocated £50,000 for all the renovation work, but owing to some significant complications, she revealed: "The budget was significantly exceeded. We were about £20,000 over, and there is a bit more to pay for yet." She continued: "I guess we're going to end up about £30,000 over budget."

Strictly pro missing from This Morning chat as co-stars send sweet message
Strictly pro missing from This Morning chat as co-stars send sweet message This Morning hosts Emma Willis and Joel Dommett were joined by a whole host of Strictly Come Dancing legends on Monday's show but one star was missing from the line-up A Strictly Come Dancing favourite was notably absent from their This Morning appearance on Monday. During the programme, summer presenters Emma Willis and Joel Dommett chatted with Strictly favourites James Jordan, Pasha Kovalev, Brendan Cole and Ian Waite. The quartet have joined forces for their popular production The Return Of The Legends, featuring spectacular dance numbers and amusing anecdotes from their time as professional dancers on the beloved BBC One programme. However, Vincent Simone was nowhere to be seen during the This Morning chat. Before going on air, the group shared a heartfelt tribute to Vincent, 46, who competed as a Strictly professional between 2006 and 2012, reports the Mirror. This Morning was hosted by Emma Willis and Joel Dommett on Monday (Image: ITV) On Instagram, James, 47, who danced professionally on Strictly from 2006 to 2013, uploaded a touching clip addressing Vincent with his co-stars. James declared: "Very shortly we are about to go live on This Morning! So make sure you tune in and also we just wanted to say hi to Vincent who can't be with us today. Vincent we love you and it's not the same without you!" The absent dancer was also acknowledged during the interview itself, with Brendan, 49, who performed professionally from 2004 to 2017 on Strictly, highlighting in a preview of their production: "Did you see Vincent there? Vincent is with us as well!". At Monday's programme opening, the Strictly professionals made a dramatic entrance, dancing their way into the studio with oversized feathers whilst celebrating hosts Emma and Joel. Following their smash hit sell-out tour Legends of The Dance Floor in 2024, Strictly Come Dancing legends Brendan, James, Pasha, Vincent and Ian have announced an even bigger tour for 2025: The Return Of The Legends. Strictly legends James Jordan, Pasha Kovalev, Brendan Cole and Ian Waite were in the studio (Image: ITV) James previously said of the show last year: "Last year's Legends tour was a life-changing experience, reigniting a passion for dance I thought was lost. "The energy, artistry, and camaraderie reminded me why I fell in love with dance. I'm deeply grateful to the exceptional team and talent behind it. I can't wait to bring that same energy and legacy to new audiences on the upcoming tour." Meanwhile Pasha, 45, who served as a Strictly professional from series nine to series 16, added: "Working with my best friends on the Legends of The Dance show was such a joy. Article continues below "We gave it everything, so to see the audiences' reaction in sold-out theatres night after doesn't get better than that. See you there." This Morning continues on weekdays at 10am on ITV and ITV X.
