    Although Montaigne will not be present in Rotterdam her performance will be replaced by the live on tape video during the show. Talking to Aussiovision the Australian act revealed that she will join the show when the hosts will talk with the acts in the Green Room. Specifically she will go on air live from Australia at 5am local time during the Green Room inteviews and the results. 

    During her interview to Aussievision she stated: 

    "At heart I’m a morning person physiologically, but not lately! I’ve been getting up around 9:30am…. The earliest thing I have to do is the day of my performance, I’ll have to be at the SBS studios for 5:00am to do the Green Room crossover, and I’ll have to do my makeup before that so it’s going to be a bit of an early start. But whatever I’ll do it! Maybe I can adjust my body clock by then."
