British singers Cliff Richard and Robbie Williams are backing boyband Blue to triumph at the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest.
- April 15, 2011
AceShowbiz - The "One Love" hitmakers split in 2005 but recently regrouped and will be representing the U.K. in the annual competition next month in May.
Cliff Richard, who was a runner-up in the contest with his hit "Congratulations" in 1968, is convinced they have the winning formula.
He tells The Sun, "A young pop band with good-looking guys singing great songs can win this and get 100 million people watching them at the same time. Blue have got a better chance than most people I remember."
Robbie Williams has also offered his support to the four-piece, consisting of Simon Webbe, Duncan James, Antony Costa and Lee Ryan.
He adds, "They've got as good a shout (chance) as anybody. Good luck, bring it home."
The competition takes place in Dusseldorf, Germany on 14 May.
