Dat meldt ze zelf via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DGyWue-IrVQ\/?hl=en&amp;img_index=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/songfestival.be\/landen\/mt\/serving-wat-controverse-rond-titel-songfestivalliedje-malta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eerder al schreven we over de deining die de songtitel &#8216;Kant&#8217; had veroorzaakt.<\/a>\u00a0Aan de ene kant verwijst de titel naar het Maltese woord voor zingen, maar aan de andere kant is het ook een weinig subtiele verwijzing naar een Engels woord voor<strong> het vrouwelijk geslachtsdeel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>EBU kiest kant<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dat Conte nu zegt dat de EBU haar heeft verboden het woord te gebruiken, raakt kant noch wal; eerder had de Maltese aangegeven dat de EBU de volledige tekst had goedgekeurd.
