¡SE REVELA EL PRÓXIMO PARTICIPANTE PARA ESPAÑA!
Spanish entry revealed!
After it was revealed that the national selection process would be back for this edition's North Vision Song Contest,  RTVE has finally unveiled the artist and the entry that will wave the Spanish flag all the way in  United Kingdom. An immense anticipation has risen around the ten participants, and the voting has come to an end. Without further ado, here is all the information you need. It's NATHY PELUSO!
Nathy Peluso is a genre in herself, but if it needed to be defined, it would be a fusion of hip-hop, salsa, rap, trap, tango, jazz, blues, R&B and… really, whatever comes her way. And just as she mixes musical genres, she mixes languages. Does she sing in Spanish? Not really. Her lyrics are a strange mix of  Argentinian slang, English,  Catalan,  Italian and plainly made-up words.
Her full name is Nathalia Beatriz Dora Peluso, but her stage name is Nathy Peluso. Born in January 1995 in Argentina, she spent her first years in Buenos Aires, before moving with her family to Spain at the age of 9.
As she has explained in an interview for La Resistencia, she did rhythmic gymnastics for 9 years, where they used to tell her that she was “too fat”. But, as she said to the camera during this interview: “La gorda está triunfando” [the fat girl is now succeeding]. Later on, she briefly studied Audiovisual Communications, Physical Theatre and Dancing.
"EMERGENCIA"

 Not a goodbye, but a 'see you soon'
In spite of confirming participation in the thirty-eighth North Vision Song Contest one month ago and announcing the return of its national selection format, following a period of radio silence  LBC has announced that unfortunately Lebanon will not be present in the upcoming contest after all.
A brief press release did not disclose many details, however explained that 'financial difficulties' in particular had derailed LBC's plans for the edition. It is not yet known how this will impact Lebanon's participation in future editions; however, it has been said that, should mahrajan al'aghnia take place next edition as was planned for the current one, the artists shortlisted for mahrajan al'aghnia #38 will be given first refusal to participate.
« Of course we are extremely saddened to not be participating in the UK – after all, this is only the second time Lebanon has withdrawn since its debut. We very much hope to be back next edition, but sadly we will all have to wait at least a little longer to find out Venus Bleeds' successor. Good luck to everyone competing in Leeds - we'll be cheering you all on from the sidelines! »
roleplay aside, I want to apologise profoundly to the NBU for withdrawing at the last minute – I know just how inconvenient this can be for contest hosts, and fully accept the warning percentage I will receive as a result. I've had a rough few weeks and completely took my eye off the ball when it comes to NVSC, so I think an edition out is the best option. I'd much rather return next edition when I'm in a much better place and able to fully enjoy the edition and participate properly, rather than rushing a last-minute, haphazard internal choice and competing for the sake of it. Needless to say, this is only a temporary withdrawal and I'll still be following the edition, just without the added pressure of competing in it. Once again, I'm really sorry, but best of luck everyone 
Lebanon's NVSC journey made the best possible start as Nicole Saba won for the country on their debut in the fifth edition with 'Hafdal Ahlam', bringing the contest to Beirut for the sixth edition and starting a (to this day unmatched) three-edition qualification streak. The country's results from then on were rather turbulent, including two four-edition streaks of non-qualifications, although Myriam Fares achieved Lebanon's second best result with 'Nifsi Aoulhalak' in the fourteenth edition: second place.
A new delegation stepped in for the twenty-fourth edition, bringing Lebanon back to the final with Nelly Makdessy's 'Kunt Atmanna' in Vienna, and achieving three top ten results for the country (with 'Call Me a Stranger', '22' and 'Dear Jealousy') before passing the baton on to the current delegation team for the thirty-fourth edition onwards, returning to the final – and to the top ten – with Azure Ryder's 'Stronger'.
