The contest has become so big with countries wanting to take part there has been a need for semi-finals of which all I can say is thank god the United Kingdom don’t have to qualify. They would never make the final. Has for the UK entrant the song is kind of growing on me somewhat and I can put my hand on my heart and say that hasn’t happen to me in a while. It’s not because one-half of the UKs entrant is Welsh either.
We have Australia back in the competition after being told last year was a one off and now there is talk of America joining the madness next year. If that was to happen, Taylor Swift could belt out some fantastic song but still receive few votes. It would be nice for someone more hated than the UK be in this melting pot of back scrubbing mates.
Russia are the favourites going into tonight but there has been plenty of satire on why. From Russia President Vladimir Putin threatening to turn the gas off if they don’t vote for the Russia entry. Russia contestant Sergey Lazarev is reported to have been caught up in a 'fetish porn blunder' after nude photos emerged online with a Kremlin spokesman dismissing claims the star has a secret porn past, insisting the pictures were part of a campaign to highlight issues with domestic violence. Only in Eurovision! Maybe not.
The music could be poor but thank god for pretty girls pulling one out of the air, Francesca Michielin, Italy who is very easy on the eye with a so, so song. My wife thinks I use the competition as some kind of a cheap version of Miss World I can see how she may think like that. However, never matter how hot someone maybe without the votes it means nothing.
There is a price for winning, a pricey drawback, the bill the following year for hosting what will cost your country millions of Euros (or Pounds) to organise this campfest. I did say don’t get me going on the voting which I can some up in one word … ‘Bent’ a slang word for dishonest, corrupt.
