Not Portugal getting Cha Cha Cha'd, public wanted Pelas Costuras, but juries got the shitty song in.

Anywho, enjoy these gems:

I legit don't blame Loreen for everything that happened because Loreen is just another contestant, even if she won before, she can't control the votes and whatever hell on earth happened during Jury Voting.

Who I will blame is on EBU and the Jury Voting, former for promoting the ABBA 50th anniversary which likely encouraged more people to vote for Sweden (seriously, it can't just be a "coincidence" for that one), and latter for piling 12 points after 12 points because c'mon, a previous winner? With a basic english ballad? AND ABBA's anniversary since they won Eurovision is next year? Man, I wonder who are they gonna vote for.

I sincerely believe this shit got rigged as fuck just so Sweden could host Eurovision for ABBA's 50th anniversary because you cannot fucking tell me a WHOLE CROWD chanting "CHA CHA CHA" and "KÄÄRIJÄ" when Sweden started getting too many 12 points, when she won, AND during the Winner's act... wanted Sweden to win. Fuck no, the crowd has spoken and kept speaking - they wanted Finland to win and pronto.

So, do I blame Loreen for all of this? No, it was out of her control, it's not her fault she got practically dragged to the finals because previous winner+ABBA's anniversary heavily influenced the voting. The ones we should be angry at and bring all the pitchforks is EBU and Jury.

In the end, Käärijä is going to be the new Verka - he will be remembered, loved, praised, and his acts gave us so many new content to make memes off that he has ascended from a mere contestant to an absolute legend. Many years from now, there's going to be people asking "Who's that green funny man?"

"Oh, that's Käärijä"

"Did he won?"

"No, he came in second"

"Aw, then who won?"
