Eden Golan, Israel's shining star at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest, is set to take on her most challenging role yet - as an IDF recruit.
Fresh from her triumphant fifth-place finish with the electrifying hit "Hurricane," Golan is now preparing to weather a different kind of storm. The young singer, who captivated millions with her powerful vocals and stage presence, has received her first military summons. She is due to report for IDF duty on September 19, 2024.
Despite facing a whirlwind of challenges during Eurovision, Golan stood tall, delivering a performance that resonated across borders. Now, she's ready to serve her country in a different capacity.
While trading sequins for fatigues might seem like a stark contrast, insiders speculate that Golan's extraordinary talents won't be wasted. She's tipped to join the IDF's cadre of exceptional artists.
