On Saturday, it was revealed that Olly Alexander will be representing the UK at next year’s Eurovision.
The Years & Years frontman, 33, made the announcement during Saturday’s live final of Strictly Come Dancing as the audience cheered along.
He will represent the UK in Sweden in 2024 and has promised to ‘fly the flag for the UK in the gayest way possible’.
Olly appeared on Radio 2 on Monday and told host Rylan about how he is preparing for his performance, teasing that it will require ‘extreme physical fitness’.
He said: ‘Whatever I’m going to be doing it’s going to require some extreme physical fitness from me because I know that, when I was on tour I started singing the songs on the treadmill… so I’ve started doing that. I’ve started hula hooping and singing the song.’
Asked to sum up what fans can expect, Olly said: ‘Drama!’ before adding: ‘I think it’s going to be one of the craziest experiences of my life.’
He also opened up about how hard it was to keep the news a secret, revealing his mum had a ‘panic attack’ when she found out because she was so excited.

He added that getting to be the UK entry was ‘like a dream’ and vowed he would ‘be pulling out all the stops’ in Malmö next year.
It comes after Olly promised that his Eurovision show will be a ‘wild ride’ and said he won’t be singing a ballad but an electronic song that is ‘something you can dance to’.
He told The BBC after the official announcement: ‘I’m scared, but I’m excited. I’ve wanted to do this for a really, really long time. It’s all a bit of a blur.
‘I mean, it wasn’t gonna be a ballad. Or maybe it could have been a ballad. I love a ballad. Am I saying too much now? It’s not a ballad.
‘I wrote the song with Danny Harle, and it’ll be coming next year. And it’s really good.
‘That’s definitely the vibe. It’s gonna be electronic, something you can dance to. But yeah, I can’t say much more than that.’
He added that he can’t wait to arrive in Sweden next year to meet all the fans and other taking part, saying: ‘It’s going to be the wildest experience of my life!’
The UK will automatically qualify for next year’s Eurovision final, which will take place in Malmo on May 11, after Sweden’s Loreen was crowned the winner back in May.
