Eurovision birthdays 17/11 – You are right there, maman

Many years before the first Junior Eurovision graced our screens, child stars did have the chance to perform in the senior show. This was phased out in the 1990s, but a few of them appeared over the years. In 1969, our Monégasque friends sent 12 year-old Jean-Jacques Bortolaï, complete in his turquoise suit. And, so we’re told, if he didn’t win his mother was going to give him a slap. He’s now apparently involved in rugby. Jean Jacques is 58 today.

Bonne anneversaire, Jean Jacques!
