EXCLUSIVE: Mae Muller is revealed as the UK’s Eurovision entrant ahead of the 2023 contest in Liverpool

Mae Muller, a former worker in a little-known shop, will be introduced tomorrow by the BBC as the British Eurovision entrant.

The Daily Mail can reveal that the London-born singer has been singled out by music industry insiders in the hopes that she will follow the success of British star Sam Ryder last year when he placed runner-up to Ukrainian competitor with his hit SPACE. MAN.

Sources say the decision to cast the 25-year-old Miss Muller was made in recent days and they are confident she will earn “much more” than zero points when she takes the stage in Liverpool in May.

One said: ‘Mae is an extraordinary talent and there is no doubt she will do the country proud and hopefully replicate the success and euphoria that Sam brought to last year’s competition.

A lot of time and effort has gone into choosing the best singer for the job, she may not yet be a household name, and of course the people who selected her hope people will ask who she is, but they believe the nation he will love her , as well as all over Europe.’

It is speculated that she will perform her next single I Wrote A Song in the contest.

The competition is being held in the UK for the first time in 25 years.

While Miss Muller will be unknown to most, she supported popular girl group Little Mix on their 2019 tour and appeared in a music video for pop star Mika’s hit Grace Kelly in 2007 when she was just ten years old.

He also attended the £27,000 a year College of Fine Arts in Hampstead, north London, with the likes of Brooklyn Beckham and Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s son Rocco.

Miss Muller began writing her own songs at the age of eight before dropping out of college and getting a job at an American Apparel store.

He later went to work at a pub in Kentish Town, North London, so that he could concentrate on his music during the day.

She recently admitted that her musical inspirations are Gwen Stefani, Florence and the Machine, and Lily Allen.

Miss Muller also revealed that she first became interested in music when her mother played the Dixie Chicks’ album Home.

Speaking of her love of singing, she said, “I would stand at the coffee table and sing songs and make everyone look at me.” I was always that annoying kid.

“I started putting videos of me singing on Instagram and I put a song on SoundCloud and then it just snowballed from there.

“I started doing sessions and making more and more music and working on improving my writing skills.”

Last year, the responsibility of selecting the UK entrant was handed over to music management company TaP after they had so many low-scoring contestants.

Tickets for the event, which is to be held at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena, sold out in 90 minutes, raising fears that scalpers would inflate prices, which ranged from £30 to £380.

In yesterday’s Prime Minister’s Questions, Rishi Sunak vowed to talk to the Home Minister to implement further measures to combat the problem.

The grand finale will be anchored by Graham Norton.
