Last Saturday, February 20, The Black Mamba were the first to take the stage on RTP, followed by Valéria, mema., Nadine, Miguel Marôco, Fábia Maia and IRMA. Karetus & Romeu Bairos, Sara Afonso and IAN closed the first round of performances.
Karetus & Romeu Bairos’ performance was one of the most praised of the night on social media. On stage, the artist appeared inside a giant illuminated cube and the presentation of the song ended with a choreography starring Caretos de Podence, who used masks with screens.
The performance of IAN was also highlighted, which closed the first round. In addition to the dress with spiky X-rays on the back and SIA-style hair, the artist sported a fake pregnant belly that grew during the performance.
IRMA took a small piano in the form of a book. The remaining competitors opted for simple lighting sets, without stage props.
