His track, Due vite, which translates to two lives, ended in dramatic fashion on the Eurovision stage as he collapsed in the centre of the stage after pouring his heart and soul into the number.

He appeared to become tearful toward the end of the number as his hand quivered as he held onto the microphone.

Fans were left in awe at his power ballad performance and were also quick to comment on his handsome looks.

The singer donned a sparkly sleeveless top for the number as he put his arm muscles on full display.

He added a pair of tight trousers as he belted the tune out across the arena to rapturous applause.

It seems that his performance has landed him with a good chance of taking home the crown according to Ladbrokes.

They have seen his odds of winning being slashed from 66/1 to 16/1.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: “Punters just can’t get enough of Marco Mengoni; he’s seen his odds SLASHED from rank outsider to genuine hopeful in the matter of minutes.”

It makes Italy the biggest movers of the night.

Swooning over the stunning star, fans let their thoughts be known about Marco online.

One fan said: "Italy always has the hottest and the most respectful acts."

Another swooned, adding: "It might be because it's a hot sparkly guy singing in a fit accent... but the #italy entry is my fave."

A third wrote: "We were staying in the same hotel as Italy this week in Liverpool, I can confirm he's as hot in real life!"

As a fourth wrote: "Italy is winning me over. Hot and a good song seems like cheating."
