Finnish media reports that Windows95man will be able to perform under their existing name at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.

The Finnish representative will not be required to change their name for Eurovision 2024 according to Ilta-Sanomat. There had been discussions regarding whether Windows95man would be required to change his name due to brand advertising being in breach of the contest rules.

However, Windows95man will be required to make changes to the outfit he will wear on the Eurovision stage. The Microsoft Windows 95 operating system logo will need to be adapted for the performance, Teemu Keisteri commented:

The denim egg will be on stage in Sweden, but revisions will be made to the egg to make it safer for the contest with the inclusion of a safety bar.

You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention

I am eagerly awaiting this year’s contest. I do not typically watch, I just check out all of the acts and then watch the top act’s performances. I think I will try and watch this year.
