Feet up at home.
Any bets on what unexpected turn of events are we going to witness tonight?

  • Multiple countries withdrawing 5/1
  • Contestants showing up in the main event with Palestine flags 3/1
  • Uncontrollable booeing from the crowds 5/2
  • Judge voting completely at odds with public voting 1/8
  • Everything goes smoothly 1000/1
Me watching any of it 1000000000000000000000000000000/1.

It was supposed to be a joke.
You said earlier Germany will always find a way to be last. This was a previous contestant. Maybe one that came in last.
Second last with three points. Last was the UK, obviously.

Sort of offcial statement:

Joost Klein was filmed in spite of agreements there would be no filming at that moment by a camera crew. After repeatedly ignoring his requests not to film him he made a "threatening gesture" at the camera crew without touching them.

Should be in jail, he could've killed them.

In case you were unaware the EBU has put FA in charge of handing out punishments this year.

Shouldn't be too hard to find out, it was obviously filmed.
It wasn’t, before anyone makes a rumour out of it. It’s just about the only gesture there is, that could warrant this drastic decision.

Good point. The Internet does silly things.

It's utter bullshit. To rob a guy of his chance to perform in a competition that he has earned the right to be in over that is fecking pathetic. Utter incompetent bastards.

The UK keeps sending people who have already had their big break, which is why they're also usually so boring.
I can only remember the bloke who finished 2nd a couple of years ago, and even then I don't even remember his name. Wasn't he a YouTuber?

He had something to say about Israel not required to answer a question that was asked. I think it all stemmed from that.

And I'm all out of bubblegum.

He rose to prominence in 2020, after posting music covers on TikTok, during the first UK lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic
That's crazy. Not that he did it, but that the pandemic was so "long" ago that the guy who came 2nd two years ago "made it" during it.

Note: Should the country banned from this sweepstake win the competition, the 2nd place will win the sweepstake.
Missed this. Austria looks crap.
