Fire, rain or snow: the stage design at the Eurovision Song Contest always provides new surprises.

Malik Harris wanted a cozy stage design for his performance, which reflects his old music studio.

Turin, Italy - The Eurovision Song Contest 2022 (here all ESC news on the topic page) is in full swing.

Malik Harris was also allowed to perform his song "Rockstars".

What is special about his performance is the elaborate stage design, which resembles a music studio.

In an interview with IPPEN.MEDIA reporter Mario Hanousek, Malik reveals that the stage design was inspired by his old music studio.

ESC singer Malik Harris lived in the music studio for a long time

When asked what to expect from Malik Harris' performance (here all countries participating in ESC 2022), the 24-year-old replies in an interview with IPPEN.MEDIA: "It's definitely very intimate, which is very important to me was.

In terms of staging, we managed to bring my studio to the stage,” says Malik Harris.

In addition, he reveals to our reporter: "I lived in the music studio for a long time, I had a sofa there, a kitchen and slept there".

He wanted to reflect this on the ESC stage.

With a large carpet and many instruments, he creates a cozy living room atmosphere.

“I woke up every morning and was surrounded by Persian carpets, grand piano and drum set and that's exactly what we've brought to the stage.

I step onto this gigantic stage in front of tens of thousands of people and still feel at home," Malik continues.

A big advantage for the singer to feel at home on the huge stage in front of 200 million people.

Behind the scenes: That's how many people it takes to set up the stage, a kind of living room and music studio, for Germany's Malik Harris.

Between the songs, the stagehands only have about 45 seconds to set everything up and take it down.
