‘I feel it’s already a very queer space,’ says Czechia’s very queer ADONXS of Eurovision

As Basel in Switzerland, where the Eurovision Song Contest is set to take place, gets its giddy on, the representative of Czechia (the artist formerly known as the Czech Republic) is ADONXS (the artist formerly known as Adam Pavlovčin). At 29, ADONXS is a classic triple threat – singer, dancer, and model – who also serves as an activist advocating for LGBTQ+ rights in his native Slovakia. His debut album, Age of ADONXS, was released in 2022, showcasing his brooding basso profondo vocals. Which means deep.

Demo

ADONXS describes his Eurovision single, Kiss Kiss Goodbye, as a bittersweet anthem of liberation, which ‘should feel liberating in a way,’ he explained during an interview with DNA Magazine, adding that the song allows him to assert his independence from situations that no longer serve him: ‘I’m allowing myself to exit… with a bit of sass, you know, kiss, kiss goodbye.’ So far, so I Will Survive.

As the countdown to Eurovision progresses, ADONXS is acutely aware of the demands placed on his voice. ‘I’m still figuring this out… I have an incredible vocal coach,’ he says. His preparation includes online warm-ups and energising ginger shots, which he finds essential for maintaining his vocal health. So far, so Mariah.

The Eurovision environment, known for its close-knit community and acceptance, is something ADONXS appreciates deeply. ‘I feel it’s already a very queer, inclusive space,’ he reckons.

Despite the varied opinions surrounding the contest – some claim it is overly saturated with queer representation (hooray!) while others argue it lacks sufficient diversity – ADONXS finds the current balance to be quite satisfying. He believes that Eurovision, with its eclectic range of performances, continues to evolve and reflect the community’s diversity.

ADONXS is set to perform Kiss Kiss Goodbye during Semi-Final 2 on Thursday, 15th May (CET).

Noah Fact Check Pro

The draft above was created using the information available at the time the story first
emerged. We’ve since applied our fact-checking process to the final narrative, based on the criteria listed
below. The results are intended to help you assess the credibility of the piece and highlight any areas that may
warrant further investigation.

Freshness check

Score:
8

Notes:
The narrative is relatively fresh as it discusses Eurovision 2025 and recent activities of ADONXS. However, it does not contain extremely time-sensitive information that would significantly impact its relevance over time.

Quotes check

Score:
7

Notes:
Direct quotes from ADONXS are provided, but no online evidence of earlier uses of these quotes exists within the search results. This suggests they may be original to this interview or not widely reported before.

Source reliability

Score:
6

Notes:
The narrative originates from DNA Magazine, which may not be a globally recognised name like the BBC or Financial Times. However, it appears to be a reputable special interest publication focusing on LGBTQIA+ topics.

Plausability check

Score:
8

Notes:
The claims about ADONXS and Eurovision appear plausible given the context. Information about him being a representative for Czechia and his involvement in LGBTQIA+ activism is consistent with contemporary themes and public figures in the Eurovision contest.

Overall assessment

Verdict (FAIL, OPEN, PASS): PASS

Confidence (LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH): MEDIUM

Summary:
The narrative is generally plausible, with a relatively high level of freshness. The source, though not widely recognised globally, has a clear focus and expertise in the field it covers. Quotes are likely original to the interview, adding to the narrative’s authenticity.
