Embach 24,388 Posted May 11 I hope that Croatia wins or even any other country but Israel I hate how politically driven Eurovision is. It's the main reason why Eurovision has lost its relevancy. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluechemtrails 23,807 Posted May 11 there is talk of a violent attack as the reason for the exclusion, I don't think it's for political reasons 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twinkletoes7 5,909 Posted May 11 obviously none of us know what the altercation was but it seems incredibly convenient the favourite who was vocal against against israel managed to get disqualified, also look at their sponsor morrocan oil. hint- they're not morrocan i will be voting for estonia. favourite entry 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rorman Nockwell 54,658 Posted May 11 A part of me hopes Israel wins because ESC will be OVER and that's what they deserve The only way they come back from that is if they fire absolutely everyone and disqualify Israel to show that they know they fucked up 1 Quote ur legit gonna look the same stop buying oil of Olay face cream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kraljicabenzinske 11,159 Posted May 11 This is EBU's statement below, I think the incident must have been serious if the police got involved. And allegedly, the woman he verbally attacked is from the Swedish production team so idk if this has anything to do with Israel like people initially thought (they even said this incident did not involve any other performer or delegation member), but yeah I'm 100% with banning Israel for obvious reasons, and I also saw the footage of their delegation bullying other people or something... This is all just a mess, it's so disappointing what Eurovision has become. Easily the worst edition to date. Quote The Dutch artist Joost Klein will not be competing in the Grand Final of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Swedish police have investigated a complaint made by a female member of the production crew after an incident following his performance in Thursday night’s Semi Final. While the legal process takes its course, it would not be appropriate for him to continue in the Contest. We would like to make it clear that, contrary to some media reports and social media speculation, this incident did not involve any other performer or delegation member. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy towards inappropriate behaviour at our event and are committed to providing a safe and secure working environment for all staff at the Contest. In light of this, Joost Klein’s behaviour towards a team member is deemed in breach of Contest rules. The Grand Final of the 68th Eurovision Song Contest will now proceed with 25 participating songs. edit: added that the attack was verbal, from what we know, to avoid confusion another edit: okay there's also articles that says it was physical so i don't know anything anymore 4 Quote *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧✿☆𝐦𝐲 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐲 𝐩𝐨𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲☆✿✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧✿☆𝐦𝐲 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐲 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲☆✿✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2022 173 Posted May 11 Things are getting worse every hour that passes. The Estonian, Irish and swiss delegation have said that they won't perform tonight. I also have heard that neither Portuguese nor Spanish entries will perform tonight. Is this gonna be the last eurovision song contest? Everybody vote for Croatia 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2022 173 Posted May 11 Esc really deserves to be cancelled and never happen again, but I don't want it to end like that. Things were perfect 2 days ago and now everything is collapsing. I'm connected deeply with esc, it holds many memories from my childhood, and it was a dream of mine to go and see it live.... Ebu is fcked up. I believe that if Croatia wins tonight, eurovision is saved, but if i@@@@@ wins, then.. bye bye eurovision 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
