Can’t help but watch it lol. Such a happy event most of the time. Glad they rejected Elensky from speaking.

    Intentionally avoiding it like last year cause I can’t handle the cringe. From what I understand last year the Ukrainian act led the crowd in nazi chants so… yeah. No thanks.

      Yes it’s a shame it got hijacked by Ukrainian cringe last year. Ukraine just performed and so far it’s fine. Apparently they invited more previous Ukraine acts to perform as well and they crowd is filled with EU flags (despite taking place in UK lmao).

      Just leave the politics at home and give me false singing interesting people lol.

        Last year? It’s been hijacked, more or less successfully for years. After 2014 they had a Ukrainian singer with a song about Crimean Tatars. You can deduce the rest

          This year they managed to make it, and I hate to say it, woke and nazi at the same time. Every song is about some sort of empowerment which makes every song just sooooo boring.

            Not surprised. That seems to be the staple of western cultural mainstream for the past decade or so, and for the foreseeable future

        lol, I can actually imagine those flags being locals. Libs in the UK are still mostly pro-EU unfortunately. Meanwhile there’s me wishing this hellhole of a country would be balkanized to fuck.
