Last February he told us that his romantic interest Efendi was meant to attend Melodi Grand Prix 2022, but that her visa didn’t arrive in time.
But it seems that Norwegian singer TIX has had no problem entering Azerbaijan and he’s been hanging out with the “Mata Hari” singer in Baku.
On Monday Efendi shared extensive footage of Tix’s visit on her Instagram Stories. Among other things they visit monuments in Baku, take pictures with fans and pose in front of the iconic Flame Towers.
@wiwibloggs_official Love shine a light! #Efendi is showing @tixern Azerbaijan ❤️ #eurovision #efentix #esc #eurovisionsongcontest #fyp ♬ Mata Hari – Efendi
The duo give several interviews and then let their hair down at a champagne reception held in honour of the visiting Norwegian.
In a particularly tender moment, Efendi welcomes him to the celebratory party and they embrace in front of a banner that says “Fallen Angel” — the name of his Eurovision 2021 song and the starting point for their whirlwind romance.
“Are you ready for tonight?” she asks.
“Yeah, I’m ready,” he responds, tenderly caressing his very own “Mata Hari.”
The two then sing his song in front of the many cameras, allowing Efendi to show off the English she’s picked up since their last encounter.

The 12xal Instagram account shared footage of the pair performing TIX’s Eurovision 2021 entry “Fallen Angel,” giving that broken-hearted song a very happy ending indeed.
Earlier this year, at the MGP 2022 afterparty, TIX spoke with our correspondent Anne about his ongoing love affair with Efendi. He revealed that the “Mata Hari” singer was meant to attend the final of Melodi Grand Prix, but unfortunately she couldn’t secure a visa in time.
“I’m going to give you a scoop, OK,” he says. “Tonight Efendi was actually supposed to come here. We bought the plane tickets but we couldn’t get the visa in time. She was supposed to be on stage with me.”
“But we’ve been FaceTiming so she’s basically been here all evening.”
The “Fallen Angel” hitmaker also says that he will return to Melodi Grand Prix in the future.
“I feel so at home here. I’m just a huge Eurovision fan. I’m going to stay at this arena for years and years and years I bet.”
Are you excited to hear that their romance is still on the boil? What else do you think is on their plate during his time in Baku? Let us know in the comments box down below!

How can you dance to that song? like for real??
Anyway, i still don’t get the purpose of this event. Was it covered by the Norwegian embassy in Azerbaijan? Who sponsored it? Was it a PR event to promote Baku? I don’t get it. It wasn’t a personal moment between the two, it was a whole event.
Also, did they confirm they’re dating or what? This is so confusing…
Norwegian talking: It hasn’t been mentioned at all in Norwegian media. Tix hasn’t posted anything about it except a short story of them singing fallen angel first night. I dont know why she invited azeri media. It is for sure not Norwegian embassy who hosted, but her, with help from journalist friends. I do not understand why this was made such a huge mediaevent either, I am not even sure if he knew. He looked a bit surprised. I think she said they are just close friends in the interviews. ????
She said they were just friends. For me personally, Azerbaijan, with the help of Andreas, just decided to promote themselves. She found out about his arrival in just a few days and quickly organized this party. Although she knows that Andreas does not feel comfortable at such events, especially here, where everyone speaks Azerbaijani. It wasn’t nice of her. She could just spend time with him and show the city, and not make a large-scale event out of it
She did not even have to know her song, just open her mouth every now and then.
Shame on Efendi and Tix for promoting and glorifying the state of a murderous and dictatorial regime. Azerbaijan is literally slaughtering innocent Armenian civilians everyday! But everyone seems to turn a blind eye to it or either supports the Azeri regime because of their oil exports!
Shame on you that you defend Armenia. Armenia occupied Azerbaijan lands for 30 years. So your comment is only propaganda.
Just yesterday I read news, and there was a video evidence of Azerbaijan’s soldiers shooting Armenian people who they had captured. Efendi being a big speaker of these type of war crimes back in 2020 was enough and as it still continues I do wish Wiwibloggs wouldn’t promote Efendi in any way here anymore.
Everything about Efendi feels like a PR stunt, but this Efentix thing has gone too far at this point.
It’s strange how this post regarding Tix and Efendi barely gets any negative comment on the Eurovision Fans Facebook group, while it’s the total opposite here on Wiwibloggs.
It’s like, Eurovision Fans Facebook group and Wiwibloggs are two-worlds apart.
Is any of you here member of the Eurovision Fans Facebook group?
Watch everyone twist themselves into a pretzel when they realize Azerbaijan, Ukraine, and Israel are close allies while Armenia’s closest allies are Russia and Iran.
Just to clarify, Ukraine and Israel are close allies of Azerbaijan. Ukraine and Israel aren’t precisely allies between them two.
Armenia is basically alone in a sea of enemies. Their only options for allies are their neighbours: Iran, Georgia and Russia, which is why they’re allies of all three. But due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Armenians are constantly protesting to leave the Russian-led military alliance (CSTO) with EU flags in Yerevan.
If Armenia had no ties with Russia or Iran, Armenia wouldn’t exist. Azerbaijan and Turkey would invade and take full control of Armenia with little to no consequences.
Georgia isn’t exactly fond of Armenia either. Over a thousand Armenians went to war against Georgia fighting on the side of the separatist region of Abkhazia, a territory that Georgia and the international community recognize as belonging to Georgia, but only Russia and a few rogue “states” recognize as independent.
Then how come all Armenians who fought on Georgia’s side? I know one guy who is now crippled after that war and has received medals from the Georgian government. A
Georgia isn’t exactly fond of Armenia either. Over a thousand Armenias went to w.4.r against Georgia f!ght!ng on the side of Abkhazian 4rmy. Only Russia and a few rougue “states” recognize Abkhazia as independent while Georgia and the rest of the international community recognize it as an integral part of Georgia.
Do you think Georgians simply forgot about that?
Quit spreading lies. Armenia has never been at war with Georgia and Armenia and Georgia have very close relationship and friendship. You should really just EF off
Look up the Bagramyan Battalion
What a ridiculous comment. So just because Azerbaijan and Israel are close allies because Israel sells billions of dollars worth of weapons to Azerbaijan and Azerbaijan sells cheap gas and oil to Israel, it justifies the atrocities committed by Azeris? Also, Azerbaijan has closer ties to Russia than Armenia (though contrary may be true on paper). Finally, you may turn into a pretzel when you learn that Armenia is the most democratic country in the region, while Azerbaijan is one of the most autocratic countries in the world and USA, France and other democracies have have announced their support for… Read more »
I won’t be reading this article, or any article relating to Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan has committed some incredibly horrifying war crimes over the past while in Karabakh and recently on Armenian soil. I don’t want to get into the graphic details of what Azerbaijan’s military has done, but I can’t support Azerbaijan anymore after watching and reading some of the stories published online regarding the conflict.
I dont know where are u from, but I advise u to study the nature of the conflict and u will see how terrible attrocities had been committed by Armenian forces.
the dick.tator aliyew is thirdwheeling as translator and sponsor
She is desperate for leaving Azerbaijan and he knows that and uses that. Terrible both.
How Nice and romantic ? Good that they are still in touch
this is all ridiculous. she’s giving mail-order bride and he’s giving puppet of a dictator state. it’s lame in whichever way you see it lmao.
He deserves better than this…. Caricature of human…
Im beyond disgusted.
Knowing how vulnerable Tix is, this seems like she’s manipulating him to boost her own popularity.
Awful woman. Truly awful
Well, if he ibformed himself about that “country” and its polizics, about her opinions and still went there – he deserves nothing but this
I had the opportunity to meet Andreas in person not that long ago. He is genuinely very kind, sweet and bubbly person. But on the other hand, very vulnerable…
That’s why it’s beyond me he is still wasting time on this h…o….€…
She is fake as hell. And no one will change my opinion on her using her for her own good.
Think what u want even the worst humans are very charismatic. However he is not oblivious and he sure as hack hasn’t suffered from that much brain damage not to be able to Google WHERE THE HELL he is going
I am a true fan of the blog and I am disappointed. You have shown so much awareness and sympathy for Ukraine but when it comes to Azerbaijan and it’s pr stunts you are quick to report. This is not a hate comment. Please do better and reconsider your priorities
T is absolutelly out of my mental capacity to understand how on the Earth can wiwi still support this Aliyev’s supporter. Azerbaijan should have been banned milion times as they simply cannot play fair. If we condemned Russia, we should condemn these as well – sharing this article about his lovely visit (i hope he visited military park as well) while right NOW azeris killing pows, attacking Armenia every single day and sharing videos of tortured and mutilated soldiers via social networks is just stupid, ignorant and shame. #nodoublestandards #helpArmenia #stopazerbaijan
Azerbaijan is new gas source substitute for Russia in EU, so they are just blind on all Azeri atrocities… It’s all politics…
Why do you promote anyone who is dictator Aliyev’s puppet? She had a post on social media encouraging Azerbaijanis go and kill Armenians (she said she’ll do that with great pleasure herself). Much evidence has now emerged which showed Armenian women dismembered and tortured (acts are condemned by the US, EU etc.). Unarmed Armenians being gunned and tortured in another video. She obviously has got an input in promoting hatred. Cut her from your posts. She doesn’t deserve attention to further use it for advertising genocidal aspiration of Azerbaijani dictator.
Love TIX and all but why’s this an article?
Because their babies will represent Azerbaijan and/or Norway in the future?
HAHAHAHAHA!
its an article bc of pro azeri propaganda thats it
They are already tired. 1.5 years have passed since that time, and they are still doing HYPE on this topic. If they had real feelings, then neither he nor she would have reported it, they would have just met and talked quietly without journalists and posts on social networks, especially Effendi. She also gave him something like a party, where there were a lot of cameras. It’s unpleasant to look at them. I don’t wish them anything, Tony won’t be together anyway. Hype hype and only hype nothing more
ITS PROPAGANDA thats why – how come ppl are supposed to learn to identify propaganda in schools yet ppl fail to identify this as propaganda WHO IN HIS RIGHT MIND WOULD WANT TO VISIT AN OIL DICTATORSHIP no one EVER talks ab except for recently bc of the gas crisis
I heard the nightlife in Baku is amazing. It certainly looks like it from these videos. They seemed to have had a wonderful time. Good for Efentix!
no its a NIGHTMARE
lol
As someone that has been in that lousy version of Dubai, let me tell you that my semi-ghost hometown has a livelier and richer nightlife than Baku
Everything about Efendi just seems like an act, I just can’t be convinced that this is her true personality.
she likely doesn’t have one. talk to an azerbaijani who hasn’t lived abroad like efendi and it’s like you’ve talked to all of them.
what do u expect of a dick,tator supporter puppet like her shes the definition of FAKE
Efentix … they’re so cute, I’m shipping them, I can’t help myself…
PR or not, they’re so cute together… I ship.
Did she take him to their “Victory Park”, you know for a stroll where they display all the atrocities they committed against Armenians recently. The double standard by Eurovision fans is absolutely heartbreaking. This b*** was posting pro-war, racist comments about Armenians all throughout the Eurovision season and the fandom welcomed her with open arms.
i’m telling you there’s no more brainwashed country than azerbaijan on this planet. the fact that efendi doesn’t speak english doesn’t help her have her own opinions that differ from whatever she’s fed by their dictator-controlled media.
You are 100% right.
