Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox song contest national year
France participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpool, United Kingdom, with the song "Шаблон:Lang", written by Fatima Zahra Hafdi, Ahmed Saghir, Yannick Rastogi and Zacharie Raymond. The song was performed by La Zarra. The French broadcaster Шаблон:Lang internally selected the French entry for the contest, delegated by the television channel Шаблон:Lang. La Zarra was officially announced by Шаблон:Lang as the French entrant on 12 January 2023, and the song was presented to the public as the French entry on 19 February 2023, during the France 2 programme Шаблон:Lang.
As a member of the "Big Five", France automatically qualified to compete in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest.
Background
Prior to the 2023 contest, France participated in the Eurovision Song Contest sixty-four times since its debut as one of seven countries to take part in Шаблон:Escyr.[1] France first won the contest in Шаблон:Esccnty with "Шаблон:Lang" performed by André Claveau. In the 1960s, they won three times, with "Tom Pillibi" performed by Jacqueline Boyer in Шаблон:Esccnty, "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Isabelle Aubret in Шаблон:Esccnty, and "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Frida Boccara, who won in Шаблон:Esccnty in a four-way tie with the Шаблон:Esccnty, Шаблон:Esccnty, and the Шаблон:Esccnty. France's fifth victory came in Шаблон:Esccnty when Marie Myriam won with the song "Шаблон:Lang". France has also finished second five times, with Paule Desjardins in Шаблон:Esccnty, Catherine Ferry in Шаблон:Esccnty, Joëlle Ursull in Шаблон:Esccnty, Amina in Шаблон:Esccnty (who lost out to Шаблон:Esccnty's Carola in a tie-break), and Barbara Pravi in Шаблон:Esccnty. In the 21st century, France has had less success, only making the top ten five times, with Natasha St-Pier finishing fourth in Шаблон:Esccnty, Sandrine François finishing fifth in Шаблон:Esccnty, Patricia Kaas finishing eighth in Шаблон:Esccnty, Amir finishing sixth in Шаблон:Esccnty, and Pravi finishing second in 2021 with 499 points. In Шаблон:Esccnty, the nation finished in twenty-fourth place with the song "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Alvan and Ahez.
The French national broadcaster, Шаблон:Lang, broadcasts the event within the country and delegates the selection of the nation's entry to the television channel Шаблон:Lang. The French broadcaster has used both national finals and internal selections to choose the country's entry in the past. In Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty, the French entries were selected via the national final Шаблон:Lang.[2]
Before Eurovision
Internal selection
Initially, Шаблон:Lang announced in July 2022 that the French entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 would be selected via the national final Шаблон:Lang[3][4][5] However, on 12 January 2023, it was reported that the national final had been cancelled,[6] and soon later the broadcaster announced that it had internally selected La Zarra, a Canadian singer and songwriter of Moroccan descent based in France, as the French entrant for the contest.[7] Her competing song, "Шаблон:Lang", written by Ahmed Saghir, Yannick Rastogi, Zacharie Raymond, and La Zarra herself, was presented to the public on 19 February 2023 during a pre-recorded showcase performance, broadcast on Шаблон:Lang during the programme Шаблон:Lang and hosted by Laurent Delahousse.[8] The French Head of Delegation for the Eurovision Song Contest, Alexandra Redde-Amiel, commented on the selection:
At Eurovision
According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete in the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. As a member of the "Big Five", France automatically qualified to compete in the final on 13 May 2023. In addition to its participation in the final, France was also required to broadcast and vote in one of the two semi-finals. This was decided via a draw held during the semi-final allocation draw on 31 January 2023, when it was announced that France would be voting in the first semi-final.[9]
Шаблон:Lang broadcast all three shows live on its channels; the two semi-finals were shown on Culturebox with commentary provided by André Manoukian and France's Шаблон:Esccnty Anggun, while the final was aired on France 2 with commentary by Laurence Boccolini and Stéphane Bern.[10][11][12] The broadcast of the final reached a total of 3.48 million people in France, a 10% increase on viewing figures for the Шаблон:Escyr and representing a 25.6% market share of television viewers over the age of 4.[13][14]
