COSMÓ's MBTI personality type is not officially listed anywhere, but his interviews, behavior, and creative path provide a fairly complete portrait of his character and values.

Openness to the world (Cosmopolitan). His pseudonym, COSMÓ (from cosmopolitan), accurately captures his essence. Born in Budapest and raised in Austria by a German father, he emphasizes the importance of "looking beyond borders" and feeling part of a larger world.

Mindfulness and self-belief. He's seriously into meditation and goal visualization techniques (he has a "vision board"). He honestly admits that his mother taught him this philosophy.

Perseverance and tenacity. COSMÓ's journey proves he doesn't give up after setbacks. He tried out for The Voice Kids twice, reaching the final on his second try. He also competed in the national Eurovision selection for the second time—and won.

Creativity and perfectionism. He created his first music himself on a laptop in his bedroom. In preparation for Eurovision, he changed the language of his songs to German, developed a memorable image (his signature blue star by the eye), and even created an entire mini-dance choreography to convey the track's message.

An energetic optimist ("Mr. Dancing"). His motto is "More love, more respect, and more dancing." He truly believes that dance is a universal language that can unite people, and it is this energy he strives to convey on stage.

Calm and stress-resistant. Despite his young age (19) and the enormous pressure of competing at home, he's remarkably composed. In interviews, he admits he doesn't have stage fright because he simply enjoys the process. He also takes a philosophical approach to criticism and hate on social media, preferring not to read negative comments.

He is quite tall, slightly above average, and has a fairly athletic build. He has light brown eyes, a straight nose, thin lips of a natural pink color, and thick, short-cropped curly dark blond hair.
The main distinguishing feature of her appearance is a large, light blue, five-pointed star, painted or applied around her left eye. The star extends from the bridge of her nose to her temple, covering her eyelid and brow. The star's outline is clear, and the star itself is filled in with a thick, even layer of color.
He usually wears comfortable but fashionable clothes. If he's truly comfortable, he'll wash off the star on his face.

COSMÓ's childhood and creative path is the story of how an early passion for music and participation in a popular show led the 19-year-old artist to the main stage of the Eurovision Song Contest at home.

Here are the main milestones of its development:

· 🏡 Childhood and roots (born June 18, 2006): He was born in Budapest, Hungary, to a German father and a Hungarian mother, but grew up in the Austrian state of Burgenland. His real name is Benjamin Gedeon.
· 🎹 First steps in music (from age 4): He began studying music at age four, and at six, he began learning piano at the Neusiedl am See Music School. And at age 13, he began studying vocals seriously (including with an opera teacher) and began writing and independently producing his first songs on a laptop.
· 📺 Breakthrough on "The Voice Kids" (2020–2022): He first tried out for the show in 2020. But his real success came in 2022: he reached the finals on singer Alvaro Soler's team, and later even opened for him at his concerts.

🚀 The Path to Eurovision

· Emergence of style: He is characterized by a blend of genres: he is equally proficient on piano and guitar, and even incorporates elements of operatic vocal styles. His stage name, COSMÓ (from "cosmopolitan"), symbolizes his openness to the world, and the bright blue star above his eye has become his signature.
· Professional development: In 2025, after moving to Vienna, he began working closely with producer Markus Perner (drummer of the band Garish) and formed his own live band, The Thumbs, to perform at club concerts and festivals.
· Winning the national selection: On February 20, 2026, he won the national selection "Vienna Calling", beating his competitors by a narrow margin of 2 points and receiving the highest score in the audience vote.

Interestingly, despite Austria's victory last year, bookmakers still rate COSMÓ's chances as low (around 1%). However, he has already stated that his main goal isn't winning, but rather making the audience dance and spreading love through music.
