‘If people can give their opinion on TV, surely I can give my opinion on Instagram' – Samantha Mumba stands by Eurosong comments

She admitted she was a 'bit surprised' that her Instagram post had generated the reaction it did when she hit out at the panel of commentators after the show. Her song My Way was not selected to represent Ireland at the Eurovision in Basel last month. The competition was won by Norwegian singer Emmy (24) and her song Laika Party, which ultimately failed to qualify for the Eurovision grand final last month. The Irish entry ranked in the bottom four contestants in the the semi-final, receiving just 28 points. Mumba generated a social media storm when she criticised the panel – with the exception of previous Eurovision entry Bambie Thug – for not having the 'credentials, experience or professionalism required' to take on the role. She also made some other remarks, including her 'parting gift' to the panel, which was 'a bag of [emoji] to slowly choke on'. The emoji Mumba used was the aubergine icon. Donal Skehan, who was on the panel alongside radio presenter Laura Fox and dancer Arthur Gourounlian, called the comments 'completely unprofessional'. Mumba said in a follow-up post that her comments were 'never about me not winning' and that she felt strongly that the panel were 'dismissive of all the contestants, which was disappointing given the amount of work and passion we all put into our performances'. Speaking to RTÉ Radio One's Brendan O'Connor Show this morning, the singer said it was 'a very, very personal thing' for her to enter the competition and she wanted to step out of her comfort zone. 'So even doing that, and doing a song competition, isn't something that I had on my bingo list at 42 at all." She said it would have been 'ego' to believe she should not have been competing in a contest, adding: 'And it's a song competition, and I wouldn't want to represent Ireland with a song that Ireland didn't want either or do something.' ADVERTISEMENT She said: 'I think fair is fair, and I think if that's the process, then that's what it was. "And honestly, I was just proud of myself for doing it because it definitely wouldn't have been something that I would've been necessarily even thinking I would have the balls to do it, if I'm being totally honest, like, a few years ago. No, I loved the process of all of it." On whether she was surprised about the reaction her post on the process received, she said that 'everybody's entitled to an opinion'. "And I was a bit surprised - that wasn't even the focus. Like, I think I just... What I wrote was just at the end of the post. The focus of the post was actually just thanking everybody on the team who'd worked so hard on it. "I didn't see what the big deal was." She added that she is not on social media very often so was not aware that the post would generate the reaction it did. "But I mean, I certainly stand by what I said. I don't take it back. "I think, you know, fair is fair, if people can give their opinion on national television, surely I'm allowed to give my opinion on my own Instagram page. I think that's fair." The singer also said she believes the Eurosong should be separated from the Late Late Show into a separate programme. "I love the variety of it. I love kind of the process that it's open to everybody," she said. "I think if I had one immediate one, I would think that it should be its own show, and it definitely should be televised in a music venue that is set up for singers."

I've dubbed Lilibet the ‘jigsaw girl', Meghan Markle's bizarre birthday photos shows exactly why, says expert

On Wednesday, the daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle celebrated her birthday - with the duchess 7 Meghan Markle shared this photo of Princess Lilibet for her fourth birthday this week Credit: Instagram/Meghan 7 The Duke and Duchess of Sussex like to protect the privacy of Lilibet and Archie by concealing their faces Credit: Instagram 7 One of the only photos we've seen of Lilibet's face was her first birthday picture Credit: PA 7 On The Sun's Royal Exclusive show Charles Raw and Sarah Hewson spoke to host Bronte Coy, with Charles calling Lilibet a 'jigsaw girl' Credit: Supplied One showed However, both snaps showed a partial view of Princess Lilibet's face for privacy. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, former Sun Royal Correspondent and author Charles Rae discussed the intimate post, with host Bronte Coy saying it showed 'almost Lilibet's whole face.' He said: 'I like your definition of almost the full face. More on Princess Lilibet 'I'm dubbing Lilibet the jigsaw girl because over the four years, all we've seen is an ankle, an arm, a bit of a nose, maybe a forehead.' He added: 'I'm all for them protecting their children. 'I've got no problems with that as well. 'But, you know, this sort of half bits of the child, it doesn't do anything for me.'

I'm dubbing Lilibet the jigsaw girl because over the four years, all we've seen is an ankle, an arm, a bit of a nose, maybe a forehead Charles Rae Former Sun Royal Correspondent and author 'We know that their safety is a huge issue.' We last got a glimpse of Instagram - but it was taken from behind. 7 Meghan recently shared this photo of Princess Lilibet in a beekeeping suit Credit: Instagram/meghan GUARDED FAMILY Bronte continued: 'They're releasing bits of the kids, but in a very guarded way still. 'But both Harry and Meghan have been accused in the past of hypocrisy in this area. 'As a parent, of course, I do understand it is completely a prerogative what you share of your children online. 'They have said things in the past about their privacy. 'And then now Meghan having launched her Instagram in January, she has been releasing more and more of the kids, which is her decision.' 7 Meghan shared this photo of Archie from behind for his birthday Credit: Instagram Sarah claimed it is 'fair play' what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex share on Instagram now that they are no longer senior working royals.

KATE AND WILLS' VIEWS 7 The Prince and Princess of Wales recognise George, Charlotte and Louis 'play a public role', according to experts Credit: Getty She pointed out that Prince William and Princess Kate may have a different approach with their own kids, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and The royal expert explained: 'I think with the Waleses, they recognise that their children are going to play a part in public life. 'And they are being funded by the public as well. 'And they are going to take on significant roles in the future of the country and the monarchy. 'And therefore they recognise that they need to share. 'But they're also quite careful about when they share those moments of their children's lives. 'And there are pretty stringent restrictions on what can be shown and what can't.' Charles agreed, saying: 'You know, their children are eventually going to be on the royal treadmill. 'But they are very cautious with the times that the children have access to the public, or the public have access to them.' How Princess Kate cleverly manages George, Charlotte and Louis' image – but manages to retain their privacy KATE Middleton and Prince William are raising three of the most famous children in the UK - but strongly prioritise protecting their privacy as much as possible. According to royal experts, the Prince and Princess of Wales are keen to get the balance between shielding their kids and also letting the public get to know their future king. Royal author Phil Dampier told Fabulous: "Prince William always vowed to protect his wife and children from the problems of being a royal and in the spotlight as much as possible, and he promised Kate's parents he would do everything in his power. 'Both William and Kate are determined that their three children will have as normal a childhood as possible to give them a good start in life.' Instead of hiring a formal photographer to capture intimate family moments, the duchess prefers to snap them herself. Phil said: 'Kate takes her own pictures of them on birthdays and special occasions so that she can control their image, but also make sure they are happy to be photographed.' Phil explained that the family spends a lot of time at Anmer Hall in Norfolk where they can disappear from the public gaze. He said: 'The paparazzi pretty much leave them alone and they can go off in woods and on beaches without being disturbed. 'Kate's mum Carole is there a lot of the time and is very close to them, particularly George. 'They go to normal nurseries and mix with normal kids at school in London.'
