Laura Pausini Was Positive For COVID-19 While Hosting Eurovision Finals
One of the main hosts for the recent Eurovision Song Contest finals has revealed she was COVID-19 positive during the show.
Many wondered what happened to Laura Pausini when she suddenly disappeared during the highly-anticipated final. Reappearing midway through the show, the hosts had laughed it off and hurriedly moved on to the final votes – but now, Pausini has explained exactly why she disappeared.
“Well yes, there was something wrong… I haven’t felt well since Saturday. I thought it was caused by build-up fatigue. Unfortunately, this was not the case,” she said on her Instagram stories.
“I just found out that I am COVID-positive and for this reason I am isolated and can’t travel.”

“Now I just need to get well again and look for new opportunities for us to be reunited again. Love you all!”
