The Eurovision 2022 final has officially kicked off, as fans wait to discover who will walk away the winner of this year’s competition.

One of the biggest talking points so far has been Norway’s Subwoolfer, as the UK’s commentator Graham Norton reminded everyone that it’s highly suspected Ben Adams of A1 fame is behind one of their masks… and we’re obsessed.

Before top contenders Ukraine’s Kalush Orchestra and the UK’s Sam Ryder graced the stage, Norway were seventh to perform, as pop duo Subwoolfer delivered a rendition of their track Give That Wolf A Banana that had the entire arena on their feet.

If the reaction among viewers on social media was anything to go by, their ‘bonkers’ and ‘genius’ performance quickly made them many people’s favourites, as several said they’d clinched their vote.

However, some couldn’t help but bring up their suspicions once again that Ben, best-known as a member of British-Norwegian boy band A1, is one half of the act.

‘Christ alive I KNEW it was Ben Adams,’ one convinced viewer said after watching the duo take to the stage.

‘I’m so glad @grahnort said about Ben Adams as it was driving me mad where I knew the voice from! 100% that was Ben,’ another remarked.

One person said that they ‘needed proof’ it was Ben before accepting that was the truth.

‘If the rumour that one of these people is Ben Adams from A1 is true I will actually die,’ another quipped.

I hate that I remembered who Ben Adams was before Graham mentioned A1. Imagine if I could remember useful information #Eurovision

If it does turn out that Ben is part of Subwoolfer, he would be joining A-list company at this year’s Eurovision.
