Mita Xenakis

Mita Xenakis (Greek: Μιτα Ξενάκης) is a Greek singer who represented Greece at the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 in Edinburgh with the song Masquerade. She performed in the first semi-final and received enough points to qualify to the final of the event.

Her image was based off the stereotype of glamorous female singers from Greece/Cyprus (which had 2018 runner up Eleni Foureira, for example, and 2019 entry Tamta) and Ukraine, whilst the staging had references to Montenegrin rappers Who See from 2013, and Moldova’s Lidia Isaac from 2016, both of whom involved a man dressed as an astronaut, as well as Tamta’s own stage show in 2019 when representing Cyprus, with the mid-performance strip reveal.
