Eurovision 2025 'sparks huge row as BBC bosses demand Malta's song is changed over a VERY X-rated lyric'


The track was set to be performed by Maltese singer Miriana Conte, and was titled Kant, which translates to 'singing' in the language.

Ofcom rules state the word 'c**t' cannot be used on British television before 9pm, and BBC Radio 2 DJ Scott Mills also previously said he's not allowed to play the song due to its rude lyrics. And it isn't the band's first time taking part in a televised competition after they entered The Voice back in 2019 and caught the eye of BBC Radio 2 Breakfast host Scott Mills when they were played on the station last year. At the time of Olly's performance whispers of sabotage surrounded his appearance, including claims his sound was failing, his vocals were weak and a cancellation in the final dress rehearsals.
