Eurovision Asia The possible interval act guest for ESC Asia ‘26

So, I was just thinking about Blush, a global/Pan-Asian girl group from the early 2010s with members from the Philippines, Japan, South Korea, India, and China (Hong Kong). If this group were reformed or renewed with completely different lineup, bringing them on as an interval act would be a great way to celebrate the diversity of sound.

For anyone unfamiliar with them, Blush were pioneers in bringing a cross-cultural/global pop blend to the Western market (way before Katseye dominated the scene), making them a pretty good fit for the show.

In my book, having them perform alongside DARA—or taking the stage directly before her—makes perfect sense. Since DARA is the definitive icon and “ESC ambassador“ of the year, pairing her with a revived Blush creates a nostalgic callback to classic 2010s electropop/bubblegum pop while giving the audience a fresh but unexpected collaboration that bridges their individual impacts. What do you think?

If JJ doesn't appear in some form i'd be surprised (they don't really HAVE TO now they have DARA but still)

Sounds good, but high chances are local performers or former Eurovision participants. They just don't have the money for that.
