Additionally, Simonova served as a staging act for Ukraine on Eurovision Song Contest, leading Ukrainian singer Mika Newton to secure the fourth place during the Grand Finals. She then returned on the show in 2019 where she helped Moldova’s singer Anna Odobescu through her snow animation.


In early 2019, she took part on America’s Got Talent: The Champions. There, she obtained Terry Crews’ Golden Buzzer in the semis. Later, she joined Britain’s Got Talent and received a Golden Buzzer from Amanda Holden. In the end, she finished the show in third place.
