Preparations for this year's European Football Championship in Germany are in full swing.
However, the official song of the event had to be rescheduled shortly beforehand.
Berlin – For many years it has been a tradition for major sporting events to have their own song.
This year's European Football Championship in Germany is no exception.
The first kick-off is scheduled to take place in Munich in June at a game between Germany and Scotland.
The European Championship mascot Albärt, a teddy bear in a blue jersey selected by vote, is also already ready.
Meanwhile, the official EM song is still causing chaos in the planning.
The official song for the European Football Championship has to be re-produced shortly beforehand
Because the singer Kim Petras (31), who was supposed to record the song together with the pop-rock band OneRepublic and the Italian EDM group Meduza, has now surprisingly backed out.
Kim Petras, who is considered one of the best-known representatives of the German-speaking trans community and has lived in Los Angeles for a long time, did not make any further details public about her sudden cancellation.

According to Bild
reports,
she had to withdraw her participation due to “scheduling difficulties”.
The former DSDS juror Leony (26) is now taking on her role as front woman for this year's EM song.
The singer-songwriter announced in a video on her official
account that she would sing the anthem of the European Football Championship together with OneRepublic and Meduza.
“This is a huge honor for me,” Leony said enthusiastically in her clip.
“I’m so happy that I can be part of it.”
Leony and her fellow musicians have not yet revealed anything about the official European Championship anthem
In her role as a DSDS juror, Leony wrote, among other things, the final songs for the final candidates.
However, the “Brother Louie” interpreter did not reveal in her Instagram reel whether she will also be involved in the creation of the song this time or whether she will only take on the singing part of the EM anthem.
However, she will soon be flying to Miami for two days to get to know OneRepublic and Meduza and even do a joint stage appearance with her colleagues.
