Miriana Conte, Malta's representative for the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest, expressed her shock and disappointment after the European Broadcasting Union prohibited her from singing about "serving kant" in her entry. The song, a self-empowerment anthem using LGBTQ+ lingo, was seen at odds with the explicit double entendre of the word "kant." With less than a week before submission deadlines, Conte confirmed the need to modify the lyrics. Despite the setback, she remains determined, showcasing her resilience with a social media post highlighting her commitment to the contest.
'Currently filming the official 'KANT' music video, literally living my best life. We've just been notified that @ebu_hq has decided against using the Maltese word 'Kant' in our entry in the Eurovision Song Contest.'
'While I'm shocked and disappointed, especially since we have less than a week to submit the song, I promise you this: the show will go on,' she added, before perfectly concluding with another nod to gay Twitter: 'Diva NOT down.'
