Olly Alexander says he’s “ambivalent” about UK’s Union flag as it can be “divisive” and “nationalistic” ahead of Eurovision
Olly Alexander has admitted that he is “ambivalent” about the Union Jack flag.The Years and Years star, who is set to perform for the UK with his song ‘Dizzy’ at the grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö, Sweden this Saturday (May 11), said he also found it “divisive” and “nationalist” but he wants to reclaim the flag in a “positive way”.Speaking to the media [via Metro] ahead of the contest, Alexander said: “I’ve grown up in the UK, there’s a lot that I love about the UK, maybe the people and I’m lucky to have grown up in the UK.“I too have an ambivalent relationship with the Union Jack and what that represents to people because it can feel divisive, it can feel nationalist, but it can also feel like a representation of what’s good about the UK and what makes it good – it’s the inclusivity, the diversity. I am choosing to kind of focus on those aspects of what I believe being in the UK has given me in my upbringing as well.”He continued: “I hope to reclaim the Union Jack in a positive way and when I’m going to be out there waving my flag, waving the Union Jack at the flag parade, it’s for all the good things that have come from growing up in the UK and being British and yeah, I think definitely focusing on that side of things.”It comes after Alexander recently reportedly broke down in tears during an interview when addressing the current controversies relating to Israel’s participation in this year’s competition.Alexander went on to say he supported “a ceasefire, returning the hostages, the safety and security of all people in Gaza.

Taylor Swift fans react to Lana Del Rey and Kim Kardashian Met Gala 2024 moment
Taylor Swift fans have been reacting after Lana Del Rey and Kim Kardashian posed for photos together at the 2024 Met Gala.The ‘Midnights’ singer was absent from this year’s edition of the fashion event, and reportedly skipped the event due to her busy schedule and upcoming run of ‘Eras Tour’ dates set to kick off in Paris later this week.While the singer was absent from the Met Gala, her close friend and collaborator Lana Del Rey attended, and sparked a variety of responses after she was seen posing alongside reality star Kim Kardashian. This comes after Swift and Kardashian have been involved in a very public feud over recent years.In a video shared by Daily Mail on Instagram, Kardashian and Del Rey were seen engaging in a conversation on the red carpet, and standing together to take pictures.A post shared by Daily Mail (@dailymail)Swift and Kardashian’s relationship has been a topic of public scrutiny since 2016, when Kardashian defended her then-husband Kanye West’s mention of Swift in his track ‘Famous’, in which he claimed he “made that bitch famous”.She then insisted that Swift had given him permission to include her in the song and released footage of a phone call between Swift and West about the inclusion of similar lyrics to those that were released, which Swift has since said was recorded “illegally” and “edited”.Swift addressed the situation again in her December 2023 Time Person of the Year interview.
