WHAT DID HE DO?

He flicked someone’s vagina and made whale noises 

[nasa]

Why would they remove him from the running order if he's technically still in… makes no sense

[abelfenty]

This has got to be the biggest scandal in the history of the contest what the hell

girl why are they acting as if this is some complicated murder to investigate

 

what's there to investigate for HOURS

They've been dropping random facts about the ''victim'' randomly like it being a female photographer... and her being from svt and not israhell... it very much sounds like they're putting together a story to justify it

@illia it's almost dinner time mother, where's the winner winner chicken dinner?

If I had the chicken I would've said about it already

I'm starving too

 

[Komet]

the gag is this joost thing doesn't even involve anybody from israel delegation  these are 2 separate messes 

[Pendulum]

Some Spanish media reporting that CZECHIA was 11th  OH GOD. If the situation is not resolved until tomorrow, miss Aiko will take the spot. Poor Goddess Bonnici.

lo que da más peso a la posibilidad de que en la final de mañana tenga que ser la República Checa, que no pasó a la final en la segunda semifinal, pero quedó en el puesto 11, el que ocupe el lugar de Países Bajos.

if they're going to show his performance then they should have just let him perform

 

if the 'investigation' concludes that it wasn't serious then they seriously sabotaged him

[ZIVERT]

My acquaintances with press accreditation just received an email that the EBU is still investigating and talking with the Dutch broadcaster, and that Joost's semi-final 2 performance will be used for the juries to vote

 

Eurodrama-ma-ma-ma

[Schhh]

I don't remember anyone ever being disqualified right before the show.

this day is the gift that keeps on giving

He probably did something really bad. But they're not sure about disqualifying him yet.

[Funhouse]

See and this is what happens when we don't send safe jury bait

[ZIVERT]

Btw, that Spanish journalist that was complaining about "press freedom" was recorded harassing the Israeli delegation after heckling Eden  the mess continues

What? If the phone number remains the same for song number 5, and people are prepared to vote for Joost with that number but don't pay attention to the show? Similar things have happened on Melfest before.

that would mean that some of the Israeli supporters would vote for Lithuania by mistake, which would be amazing, but i don't think that works that way

People who are aware of the number 5 will be aware hes OUT (if hes out), if anything it would affect other countries which aren't kicked (cause their fans might not be aware of the change)

I mean if Joost really did something extremely problematic then wouldn't he be disqualified be now? Why does it take almost 6 hours to investigate something like this? They're cameras everywhere in the arena 

[KOMH]

What an absolute shitshow

[MALAMENTE]

Disqualifying him but not Israel. Give me a break
 

 

[abelfenty]

What a PR disaster. The EBU have well and truly dug their own grave

How is that harassment? I would also show the middle finger to anyone recording me without consent 

 

Also that clip is just 5 seconds long, it was clearly cherrypicked to make him look bad.

we need lady gaga to search for clues. and while she's in the arena, she might as well do the interval act

Yep I realized my mistake, I mentioned that already (except the part about a lot of other numbers changing too if it were to actually have that effect).
