Rumors of 02
Rumors were going around that No Frills Twins will be making an appearance in the 3rd edition of Otbor Yuvia. These rumors were later denied on twitter by the themselves. The following rumors are still unconfirmed to be true or false;
- Charlie making a debut in the 02 edition. This claim has been invalidated, since Charlie was not presented on the final list of participants.
- Faouiza making a debut in the 02 edition, due to Wallica stating that she was already in another national final, pointing to Yuvia. This was proven as true because of the 6th song reveal, and the artist indeed being Faouiza with her song "My Heart's Grave".
- Adina making a debut in the 02 edition. This was supported by many fans from the hungarian-majority region of Yuvia. This claim has been invalidated, since Adina was not presented on the final list of participants.
