Overnight in Turin, Italy, Sheldon took to the stage to perform his emotive and powerful Eurovision song Not The Same, wowing the crowd in the arena, the worldwide voting audience and jurors from competing countries to be one of the ten artists through to the Grand Final.

Sheldon Riley said:

I'm absolutely ecstatic. Tonight I just wanted to deliver my best performance and make Australia proud. It's a huge thrill that people across Europe have appreciated Not the Same, and I'm so happy I get to be on the stage again this weekend. I can't wait to be part of the Grand Final in front of 200 million people, and see what all the other amazing acts are going to bring to the stage. This is honestly a dream come true for me. I am so thankful for all the support from fans over here and everyone back home.

Australian Head of Delegation and SBS Commissioning Editor, Emily Griggs, said:

Australia is through to the Grand Final once again and we couldn't be prouder of Sheldon. He has truly captured the attention of Europe and has been representing the country with style and one sensational voice. He's soared to new heights here in Turin with his reimagined performance. It's a big weekend of Eurovision ahead and I'm sure the whole country will get behind Sheldon this Sunday on SBS and SBS on Demand.

Australian Creative Director of Eurovision and Director of Blink TV, Paul Clarke, said:

So great to see Europe loving Sheldon, he so deserves to be in the Grand Final this weekend. Australia is back! We are so excited. We will improve again and be competitive as on Sunday morning!

Only ten artists from the 18 countries performing in Semi Final 2 proceed to the Grand Final. The ten countries voted through are: Australia, Belgium, Czech Republic, Azerbaijan, Poland, Finland, Estonia, Sweden, Romania and Serbia.

They will join the 10 countries already voted through from Semi Final 1 - Ukraine, Armenia, Greece, Iceland, Lithuania, Moldova, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal and Switzerland, along with the Big Five' - Spain, UK, France, Italy and Germany, to compete in the Grand Final for the title of the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 winner.
