Azerbaijan's representative JIVA performed in the second semi-final of Eurovision 2026 at number 2. It is in this semi-final that Ukrainian singer LELÉKA will also take the stage, which means that Ukrainian viewers can vote for their favorites – including the representative of Azerbaijan.
How JIVA performed and what interesting facts are known about her life – read more in the material of Channel 24.
On stage, JIVA performed the competition track Just Go. This is an emotional song, which sounds in English and Azerbaijani and tells about the painful end of a toxic relationship and the betrayal of a loved one. For the performance, the singer chose a red-dark blue dress decorated with rhinestones. A dancer appeared on stage with her, and the artist's image was complemented by unusual makeup – red “tears”, which harmoniously combined with her outfit.
